writeup (md)
CB X Round 1 Division 5
Zelda 75.3%
Zelda destroys Ezio and seizes the division

Zelda crushed Ezio far more severely than in their earlier contest meeting and effectively ended debate about the division's natural favorite. The writeup treats the performance as another major Zelda and Nintendo statement.

CB X Round 2 Division 5
Zelda 70.7%
The Boss 29.3%
Zelda crushes The Boss and looks near-elite

Zelda crushed The Boss and made her coming match with Squall look increasingly favorable. The writeup treats Breath of the Wild and broader Nintendo momentum as convincing explanations for Zelda's dramatic rise.

3 7342
writeup (md)
CB X Round 3 Division 5
Zelda 63.3%
Zelda destroys Squall and enters near-Noble-Nine territory

Zelda destroyed Squall in the match that fully established her as the star of the main bracket. The writeup treats the scale of the win as evidence of a genuine Breath of the Wild and Smash-era boost, not a rally.

4 7354
writeup (md)
CB X Division Final Division 5
Zelda 62.2%
Zelda ends Aerith's record run in a rout

Zelda crushed Aerith and finished a division where every win had looked dominant. The writeup treats Aerith's record 15-seed run as impressive but completely overmatched once it reached Zelda.

5 7362
writeup (md)
CB X Legends
Zelda 50.3%
Zelda suppresses Snake and buries the old hierarchy 1

Zelda narrowly beat Solid Snake after a long fight in which Snake repeatedly threatened to retake control. The writeup treats the victory as the match that buried the old Noble Nine order and confirmed Zelda's elite-level rise.

SFF: The writeup says Snake's Nintendo-derived support consistently abandons him against Nintendo characters and identifies that overlap, combined with Zelda's boost, as a major reason he lost this match.

6 7372
writeup (md)
CB X Quarterfinal
Zelda 56.4%
Zelda humiliates Sonic and keeps rewriting the hierarchy

Zelda demolished Sonic in the largest of the contest's Noble Nine-breaking results. The writeup treats Zelda as plainly stronger rather than rally-assisted and calls the loss one of Sonic's worst career performances.

7 7379
writeup (md)
CB X Semifinal
Zelda 50.9%
Mario 49.1%
Zelda beats Mario with a late rally tailwind 1

Zelda beat Mario after leading essentially the entire match and pulled away late to deepen her extraordinary 2018 run. The writeup treats the win as a genuine strength result even though some outside rallying also occurred.

Rally: The writeup explicitly says Zelda received porn-site rallies during the match, while also stating that she was strong enough to beat Mario without them.

8 7384
writeup (md)
CB X Final
Link 63.6%
Zelda 36.4%
Link SFFs Zelda but cannot erase her breakout 1

Link erased Zelda's brief opening lead and won the Legends Bracket comfortably. The writeup treats Zelda's relatively strong same-series showing as one more sign that her 2018 boost was real.

SFF: The writeup frames Link as the site's strongest SFF character and treats Zelda's ability to retain substantial support in a direct same-series match as unusually impressive resistance.

9 7386
writeup (md)
CB X Redemption
Zelda 48.9%
Cloud ends Zelda's run with another comeback

Cloud erased Zelda's early lead with the same night-to-day trend reversal he had just used against Mario. The writeup treats the loss as Zelda finally running out of momentum after her extraordinary run rather than evidence that her breakout was false.

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.
