|
Kefka survived Pac-Man after an infamous match picture badly damaged confidence in the heavily hyped newcomer. Pac-Man mounted a long comeback attempt before Kefka recovered late, while the image became a lasting Board 8 running joke.
Pic: The writeup says Kefka's infamous 'lettuce' match picture hurt him badly, turning what had been treated as a comfortable win into a close, contested match against Pac-Man.

Knuckles recovers from Kefka's surprising early resistance |
|

|
|

|
Kefka surprised the board by leading early and forcing Knuckles to recover despite expectations of an easy Knuckles win. The writeup ultimately treats Knuckles' showing as disappointing and debates whether Kefka's picture and broader Square support helped explain the resistance.
Pic: The writeup says Kefka's recurring lettuce picture may have helped him attract unusually strong early support, before Knuckles took control later in the match.

|
|

Kefka and Vercetti produced a long, volatile comeback battle that became one of the contest's biggest Board 8 explosions. The drama was ultimately overshadowed by confirmed and alleged vote-stuffing on both sides, turning a classic close match into a major cheating controversy.
Cheat: The writeup documents extensive vote-stuffing and exploit use around both entrants, including votes removed by CJayC and admitted multi-voting by several users. It treats cheating as central to the match's final hours and aftermath.

|
Kefka led comfortably through the early hours before collapsing completely to Marcus Fenix during the day. The writeup remembers the match as another classic Kefka choke, with the picture matchup adding to the explanation for the reversal.
Pic: The writeup repeatedly points to Kefka's infamous Lettuce Kefka image and Marcus Fenix's strong recognizable picture as factors that helped make Kefka's collapse look even worse.

Kefka destroys guru favorite Arthas |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Kefka completely dismantled a heavily favored Arthas and turned a major guru pick into a rout. The writeup treats the result as both a Kefka revival and another warning against translating four-way strength directly into 1v1s.

Kefka trolls the bracket with another impossible-looking upset |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Kefka upset both Zack and Ryu Hayabusa in a result that wrecked the prevailing guru logic and continued his reputation for producing bizarre contest outcomes. The writeup credits Dissidia and improved presentation as plausible background factors without declaring a picture anomaly here.

Kefka routs L-Block in a classic prediction trap |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Kefka turned one of Round One's hardest prediction calls into a comfortable win over former champion L-Block. The writeup treats the result as another example of Kefka's unpredictability and of fading support for rallybait joke characters.

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.
