Tidus might have been near elite. That Ganondorf result is really darn good looking back.

Nah, it's a doubly fraudulent result based on Ganondorf boosting in 2004 and Magus overperforming on Link in 2003. It's unlikely Magus really ever dropped from 2003 to 2005. He was just never that strong to begin with (relatively speaking, of course, he was a decent midcarder but nothing more), and Ganondorf just boosted from Twilight Princess hype in 2004.

Then Tidus got his own fraudulent result against Shadow in 2004 that seemed to verify that the 2003 X-Stats were correct, so yeah, it was just a weird confluence of results that Kirby and Knuckles worked together to expose in 2005.
