Squall shocks Luigi and triggers a historic board meltdown 1

Squall stunned the overwhelmingly favored Luigi and immediately turned a normal match into one of Board 8's largest explosions. The upset generated extraordinary cheating accusations and permanently changed both characters' contest reputations.

Cheat: The writeup says Squall's upset of Luigi triggered cheating accusations on a scale rivaling any match in contest history, alongside mass account suicides, trolling, and other board chaos.

Yoshi 54.5%
Luigi 45.5%
Yoshi beats Luigi in a predictable Nintendo SFF matchup 1

Yoshi beat Luigi in a heavily debated Nintendo matchup that ultimately followed the available statistical clues more closely than the hype suggested. The writeup calls the result disappointingly predictable despite the same-fanbase conditions.

SFF: The writeup explicitly describes Yoshi versus Luigi as an SFF affair between Nintendo characters, though it notes that older extrapolated standings still predicted the matchup unusually well.

SC2K5 Round 2 Chaos
Luigi 46.6%
Tifa wins while Luigi scores another Nintendo moral victory

Tifa beat Luigi, but Luigi performed far better than the writeup says most of Board 8 expected. The result is framed as another warning against overvaluing one prior match and as more evidence of Nintendo's broader 2005 rise.

Luigi 52.3%
Kirby 47.7%
Luigi beats Kirby as SFF settles the matchup early 1

Luigi pulled away after an initially even start, and the writeup says the final closeness overstated how competitive the match really was. It also treats the result as further evidence that Kirby's prior Dream Division strength was misleading.

SFF: The writeup says SFF favored Luigi and made a Kirby comeback effectively impossible once Luigi pulled away.

Vergil 15.9%
Mudkip scares Nintendo before Luigi's morning comeback

Mudkip turned the opening hours into a genuine scare by leading the Nintendo favorites, but Ganondorf recovered overnight and Luigi's morning vote erased Mudkip's remaining advantage. The writeup treats the match as proof that joke characters could no longer be dismissed.

CB VII Round 2 Division 2
Luigi 27.9%
Bowser 22.7%
Nintendo vote splitting sends Liquid to first 1

Liquid took advantage of a badly divided field to win, while Luigi survived for the other advancing spot and Bowser fell out. The writeup uses the result as another example of four-way fanbase splitting producing strange outcomes.

LFF: The writeup says the Nintendo-oriented support was split among Luigi, Bowser and Phoenix, allowing Liquid Snake to benefit as the outside option.

CB VIII Round 2 Hyrule
Luigi 59.6%
Amaterasu 40.4%
Amaterasu impresses again despite losing to Luigi

Luigi won, but Amaterasu resisted him far better than expected and continued her reputation for outperforming difficult draws. The result also made earlier Sonic Team losses to her look less embarrassing.

CB IX Round 2 Division 3
Big Boss 43.6%
Luigi 42.8%
Ness 13.6%
Ness vote drain helps Big Boss edge Luigi 1

Big Boss and Luigi stayed tied for hours before Metal Gear's stronger late trend finally separated them. Ness's presence is treated as the key fanbase drain that prevented Luigi from taking fuller advantage of Big Boss's weak daytime vote.

LFF: The writeup says Ness leeched Luigi's Nintendo support and made the difference in a match where Luigi and Big Boss were otherwise close in strength.

CB X Round 2 Division 7
Luigi 61.6%
Frog 38.4%
Luigi handles Frog in a routine second-round win

Luigi beat Frog comfortably in a routine matchup that offered little suspense. The source's 'Green SFF' line is a color joke rather than a substantive claim about shared fanbases.

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.
