Zelda 70.7%
Zelda advances despite a mild underperformance

Zelda advanced comfortably but looked weaker than the writeup expected, while Travis benefited from recent No More Heroes visibility. The result did little to alter Zelda's projected path.

Zelda kills the Ezio upset hype immediately

Zelda erased the pre-match upset hype almost immediately and won comfortably. Ezio's later daytime gains were respectable but never made the contest meaningfully competitive.

Jecht surprises Zelda on Final Fantasy release day

Zelda advanced as expected, but Jecht performed much better than his prior results suggested and ignored the usual daytime trend expectations. The writeup suspects the contemporaneous Final Fantasy release helped explain the odd showing.

Samus SFFs Zelda and strengthens her Cloud case 1

Samus beat Zelda far more decisively than their previous meeting suggested was normal. The writeup sees a mix of Zelda decline and newly visible Nintendo suppression from Samus, further strengthening Samus's case against Cloud.

SFF: The writeup says Samus appears to have SFFed Zelda, contributing to a much stronger result than their earlier 1v1 history suggested.

What this is

Each row's Headline and (on filter) narrative come from a ChatGPT reading of that match's Board 8 wiki writeup. The five flags (SFF same-fanbase factor, LFF low-fanbase factor, Rally outside rally, Cheat cheating alleged, Pic match-picture factor) are set only when the writeup asserts that effect — never inferred from the numbers. Hover a check for the note. †OT marks a writeup that mostly wanders off the match.
