2001 wins a fair fight against fading 1995

1995 briefly made its matchup with 2001 look like a classic before 2001 began pulling away and never looked back. The writeup explicitly calls it a fair fight and rejects picture excuses for the result.

1995 advances with a major warning sign

1995 advanced but looked far too weak for the overall top seed, stalling for hours against 1987 before finally separating. The writeup treats this as the point where its anticipated showdown with 2001 stopped looking competitive.

1995 opens the bracket with a record blowout

1995 opened the main bracket with the contest's largest blowout over 1986. The writeup treats 1995 as an exceptionally deep year led by Chrono Trigger, Yoshi's Island and EarthBound, while also lamenting very low turnout and the use of American release dates.

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.
