Round 1 |
East |
|
Snake handles Squall at the height of his popularity |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Solid Snake entered as one of the contest's biggest favorites and easily handled a well-supported Squall. The writeup attributes Squall's poor showing to his weak standing at the time and explicitly describes the result as non-SFF.

|
Squall surprises Jill supporters with a comfortable win |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Squall beat Jill far more comfortably than much of Board 8 expected after his disappointing 2002 showing. The writeup treats the result as clear evidence that his strength had changed substantially between contests.

Squall beats Bomberman but raises new strength concerns |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Squall beat Bomberman but performed noticeably below the writeup's expectations from the previous year's standings. The result raised doubts about whether Squall had lost strength and reinforced frustration with a bracket designed to funnel him toward Cloud.

|
Squall overwhelms Geno as SFF shapes the Devil Division |
✓ |
|
|
|
|
1 |
|
Squall overwhelmed Geno in a match whose main question was how much shared-fanbase suppression would appear. The result also helped frame the now-unpredictable Devil Division after Magus's upset loss.
SFF: The writeup says Squall likely applied some SFF to Geno, a Square-created side character from Super Mario RPG, and uses that as evidence for how Squall might have treated Magus.

Squall SFFs Tidus and briefly fuels upset talk against Snake |
✓ |
|
|
|
|
1 |
|
Squall crushed Tidus in what the writeup calls an SFF beating through and through. The result further buried Tidus's old reputation while briefly making a later Squall upset of Snake seem plausible.
SFF: The writeup explicitly calls the result an SFF beating, with Squall suppressing fellow Final Fantasy lead Tidus far beyond what their ordinary statistical gap suggested.

Division 8 |
|
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.

Division 6 |
|
Squall crushes Yoshi far harder than expected |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Squall overwhelmed a Yoshi who had been expected to remain much closer, continuing Squall's unusually strong multiway form. The writeup treats Yoshi's performance as the real shock.

|
Squall offers little evidence before the Auron test |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Squall stayed near expectations against Akuma, providing little useful evidence for the looming Squall-Auron debate. The writeup considers the match largely inconclusive.

Round 1 |
Division 8 |
|
Squall's routine win becomes a Bit.Trip digression †OT |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Squall's easy win mainly served as a strength check before Missingno, while much of the writeup digresses into praise for the Bit.Trip games and Rayman discussion.

Division 5 |
|
Squall wins big but still looks disappointing |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Squall crushed Hat Kid but still looked weaker than expected for a character some had placed near the top of the non-Noble-Nine field. The writeup treats the early struggle as another warning about Final Fantasy's broader decline.

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.
