Aeris beats Kasumi and looks badly underseeded |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Aeris beat Kasumi without much drama, reinforcing the view that her low seed badly understated her strength. The writeup sees the surrounding part of the bracket as hers to control before an expected meeting with Solid Snake.

Aeris beats Sora in a retrospectively recognized SFF match |
✓ |
|
|
|
|
1 |
|
Aeris handled Sora as expected and continued the pattern of outperforming her low seed. The writeup later came to view Sora's poor showing as an SFF result that understated his actual contest strength.
SFF: The writeup retrospectively identifies Aeris versus Sora as an SFF match, arguing that Sora's connection to Aeris through Kingdom Hearts made him look weaker than he would against an unrelated opponent.

Aeris beats Marle but fails to strengthen her Zelda case |
✓ |
|
|
|
|
1 |
|
Aeris beat Marle comfortably, with only a small amount of SFF according to the writeup. More concerning for Aeris was her failure to dominate the daytime vote, which weakened confidence that she could challenge Zelda later.
SFF: The writeup says Aeris and Marle showed some SFF from their overlapping Square and role-playing fanbases, but characterizes the effect as minimal rather than a major suppression.

Squall settles the Aeris debate while Akuma debuts well |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Squall settled a long-running strength debate with Aeris, while Akuma's debut was respectable despite a field crowded with Square characters. The writeup treats Akuma's showing as evidence that better bracket placement could have produced wins.

Auron meets expectations without strengthening his Squall case |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Auron performed almost exactly where the writeup expected against Aeris, which did little to resolve the larger Auron-versus-Squall debate. The writeup argues that merely meeting expectations was not enough to strengthen Auron's upset case.

Dragon Quest Hero shocks Rinoa for second place |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Aerith won as expected, but the real surprise was Dragon Quest V's Hero taking second in the Expert Challenge ordering over Rinoa. The writeup celebrates the result as an improbable Board 8-style upset and a guru buster.

Aerith ends Waluigi's meme hopes without trouble |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Aerith comfortably beat Waluigi after fears of joke votes or a meme rally failed to materialize. The writeup treats Waluigi's loss as another example of rallybait collapsing under the contest's quieter environment.

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.
