Round 1 |

|
Ryu crushes the heavily hyped joke entrant CATS |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Ryu demolished CATS after the joke entrant had drawn considerable board hype. The writeup treats the result as proof that CATS's support was largely humorous rather than evidence of real contest strength.

Round 1 |
West |
|
Ryu crushes Duke and quietly warns the Dante backers |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Ryu demolished Duke Nukem far more convincingly than many expected. The writeup treats the performance as an overlooked warning that the supposedly obvious Dante-Ryu result in the next round was far from settled.

Chaos |
|
Ryu beats KOS-MOS while Samus emerges as the bigger story |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Ryu beat KOS-MOS as expected, but the writeup uses the result mainly to infer that Samus had grown much stronger than older standings indicated. That implication sharply reduced the plausibility of Sonic upsetting her later in the division.

Ryu beats Rikku but badly damages his case against Bowser |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Ryu beat Rikku but fell dramatically short of Board 8's expectations as his percentage kept sliding through the day. The writeup saw the performance as effectively ending the case for Ryu over Bowser before their match even arrived.

|
Ryu beats bracket favorite Kratos despite a strong day vote |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Ryu beat Kratos without serious danger even though casual brackets had strongly favored Kratos. The writeup is more interested in Kratos's powerful daytime recovery, which suggested he could become dangerous in a genuinely winnable future match.

Ryu wins as Nintendo LFF drags Bowser down |
|
✓ |
|
|
|
1 |
|
Ryu took first in a result that surprised many bracket players but made sense once Bowser's two fellow Nintendo entrants were considered. Bowser still advanced, but the writeup treats his weak showing as a serious warning for later rounds.
LFF: The writeup says Bowser was weakened by sharing Nintendo support with both Mewtwo and Toad, allowing outside entrant Ryu to take first place comfortably.

Division 4 |
|
L-Block outlasts Ryu in a low-stakes thriller |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The defending champion showed little sign of fading, and the writeup remembers its duel with Ryu as an excellent fight that the four-way format robbed of real stakes. Meta Knight's weak showing was the main disappointment.

The writeup mostly attacks Final Fantasy XII †OT |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Most of the writeup is a broad rant about Final Fantasy XII, with Ryu's easy win over Balthier receiving only brief attention.

|
Ryu wins while Yuri comfortably takes second |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Ryu won comfortably, while Yuri Lowell secured the second-place Expert Challenge position over Face McShooty without much suspense. The writeup is more pleased by Yuri's placement than interested in the actual competitiveness of the match.

Round 1 |
Division 8 |
|
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.

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.
