BGE 2K15 Round 1 Division VII
Shenmue 37.6%
Grand Theft Auto V wins and still gets exposed

Grand Theft Auto V beat Shenmue but looked embarrassingly weak for a top seed against such limited opposition. The writeup treats the result as immediate confirmation that GTA5 was doomed in Round Two.

BGE 2K15 Round 2 Division VII Super Mario RPG knocks out top-seeded GTA V

Super Mario RPG beat the top-seeded GTA V exactly as Board 8 expected, turning casual bracket confidence into another easy target. The writeup treats the upset as obvious to experts despite the seeding.

GOTD 2 Round 1 Division 4 GTA V wins but cannot escape anti-GTA voting

Grand Theft Auto V beat Baba Is You but was briefly embarrassed by Board 8 anti-GTA voting at the start. The writeup treats the result as another example of GTA's unusual inability to produce clean blowouts even against extremely weak opposition.

GOTD 2 Round 2 Division 4
Cuphead 39.7%
GTA V crushes the Cuphead upset hype

Grand Theft Auto V quickly erased the much-hyped Cuphead upset scenario and controlled the match throughout. The writeup treats GTA V as clearly stronger than the rest of its historically weak contest franchise.

GOTD 2 Round 3 Division 4 Persona 4 Golden beats GTA V without drama

Persona 4 Golden beat Grand Theft Auto V from wire to wire and completed another bracket-busting win without current-match rally assistance. The result established Persona 4 Golden as the contest's most surprising divisional finalist.

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.
