CB X Round 1 Division 8
Ryu 68.4%
Ryu dispatches Lloyd in a routine veteran win

Ryu routed Lloyd in another demonstration that the Tales series had little character-contest strength. The writeup treats Ryu as a durable veteran who remained comfortably above ordinary fodder despite years of decline.

CB IX Round 1 Division 6
Pikachu 52.9%
Big Daddy 23.4%
Lloyd barely survives Big Daddy behind Pikachu

Pikachu had first place secured, but Lloyd and Big Daddy produced a genuine photo finish for second in the Expert Challenge ordering. Lloyd's early lead survived a slow Big Daddy comeback by the narrowest margin.

CB VIII Round 1 Gear Fox ends his drought against weak Tales opposition

Fox ended a long 1v1 win drought with an easy victory over Lloyd Irving. The writeup uses the match mainly to argue that Tales characters are chronically over-nominated relative to their contest strength.

CB VII Round 1 Division 2
Mudkip 30.3%
Mudkip advances but lacks the bracket for another L-Block run

Mega Man X dominated while Mudkip comfortably claimed the other advancing spot, confirming that the joke character still had substantial support. The writeup nevertheless argues that Mudkip's bracket placement made another L-Block-style run unrealistic.

CB VI Round 1 Division 4
Zero 39.6%
HK-47 21.3%
Jak 18.9%
HK-47 advances from the infamous Jakpack of Suck

Zero took the expected first place while HK-47 beat the favored Lloyd for second in a weak and widely disliked fourpack. The writeup calls it the Jakpack of Suck and argues that Lloyd's inability to win here became emblematic of Tales characters' contest failures.

writeup (md)
SC2K5 Round 2 Mushroom
Zero 73.3%
Zero dispatches Lloyd and advances toward the inevitable Mario test

Zero dispatched Lloyd exactly as the bracket had seemed to prescribe from the start. The writeup mainly uses the match to reassess Lloyd's place among Tales characters and to leave Zero's real test for Mario.

7 2069
writeup (md)
SC2K5 Round 1 Mushroom Lloyd beats Wesker but badly misses Board 8 expectations

Lloyd never seriously risked losing, but Wesker performed much better than the writeup expected against the Tales protagonist. The result was treated as a clear Lloyd underperformance and another sign that recent statistics were hard to trust.

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.
