Ryu 20.2%
Auron 18.2%
Cloud dominates while Final Fantasy overlap helps Ryu advance 1

Cloud overwhelmed the field and further fueled speculation that he could challenge Link. Ryu advanced ahead of Auron, with the writeup treating Cloud's effect on Auron as central to the result.

LFF: The writeup says Cloud's shared Final Fantasy support held Auron down, allowing outside entrant Ryu to benefit and claim the other advancing position.

Ryu 34.0%
Cloud delivers his strongest-looking performance against Ryu

Cloud produced one of his strongest matches of the contest by overwhelming the usually consistent Ryu. The writeup treats it as a much-needed reminder that Cloud remained elite despite visible decline elsewhere.

CB X Division Final Division 8
Sephiroth 60.3%
Ryu 39.7%
Sephiroth crushes Ryu and revives his reputation

Sephiroth unexpectedly crushed Ryu and produced by far his strongest-looking result of the main bracket. The writeup uses the match to argue that reports of Sephiroth's collapse had gone too far.

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.
