SC2K4 Round 1 Chaos Ryu survives Jill after a glitch, restart, and marathon battle

Ryu Hayabusa and Jill Valentine produced a celebrated marathon after a server glitch forced their fiercely contested poll to be restarted. The second poll featured another series of major swings before Ryu survived Jill's final comeback attempt by the narrowest of margins.

SC2K5 Round 1 Mushroom
Zero 63.0%
Zero beats Ryu Hayabusa but leaves mild strength questions

Zero beat Ryu Hayabusa comfortably in a deliberately uneventful match after the previous day's chaos. The writeup nevertheless saw Ryu's late recovery as a mild warning that Zero might be somewhat overrated.

CB2K6 Round 1 Patriot
Dante 65.2%
Dante handles Hayabusa and keeps the edge over Yoshi

Dante beat Ryu Hayabusa almost exactly as the writeup's prior expectations suggested. The routine result kept Dante looking steadier than Yoshi heading into their debated second-round meeting.

CB VI Round 1 Division 7
Riku 27.2%
Roxas 17.7%
Haseo 9.3%
Ryu overwhelms the split Kingdom Hearts field †OT

Much of the writeup is an extended aside explaining who Haseo is; its match discussion emphasizes Ryu Hayabusa unexpectedly overpowering the split Kingdom Hearts field and making his later rematch with Riku look settled.

CB VII Round 1 Division 5
Zero 35.4%
Pit 14.6%
Ryu edges Zero as more Brawl hype fizzles

Ryu Hayabusa and Zero were always the serious contenders, but Ryu's ability to take first made the match more interesting than expected. Dedede and Pit reinforced the writeup's view that Brawl alone could not manufacture contest strength.

CB VIII Round 1 Mushroom Ryu Hayabusa wins but badly disappoints against Crash

Ryu Hayabusa beat Crash but looked far weaker than expected and even lost the morning vote. The result initially killed much of the hype for a second-round upset over Master Chief.

CB IX Round 1 Division 4
Kefka 37.8%
Zack Fair 32.6%
Kefka trolls the bracket with another impossible-looking upset

Kefka upset both Zack and Ryu Hayabusa in a result that wrecked the prevailing guru logic and continued his reputation for producing bizarre contest outcomes. The writeup credits Dissidia and improved presentation as plausible background factors without declaring a picture anomaly here.

CB X Round 1 Division 6 Smash and presentation lift Simon past Ryu Hayabusa 1

Simon Belmont upset Ryu Hayabusa after taking an early lead and resisting a long, slow comeback. The writeup credits Simon's Smash announcement and improved presentation for transforming a historically weak character into a legitimate threat.

Pic: The writeup says Simon Belmont's new Smash design was shown especially well in the match picture and treats that presentation as part of the boost that helped him beat Ryu Hayabusa.

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.
