Day 6, Match 3 - Kefka vs. L-Block
(7) Kefka: 60.19% - (10) L-Block: 39.81%

What happened?: Ahhhh this match. A true headscratcher going in, nobody knew what to make of this one. The two most unpredictable characters in contest history going up against each other. And given that the winner almost certainly goes to round 3, it is a really key decision. And then Kefka came out and won easily, looking very strong early on. Of course that's how this goes, a classic debated match turned one-sided. Oh Kefka.

What could this mean?: Trying to make heads or tails of this match is a fool's errand. Is Kefka a true elite? Or is the joke just dead? Who knows. Kefka never makes any sense.

Day 6, Match 4 - Kazuma Kiryu vs. Bomberman
(2) Kiryu: 39.13% - (15) Bomberman: 60.87%

What happened?: Bet you never thought you'd see Bomberman 60/40 someone! Kiryu is a character that has been around for a while, but along with his series has had a recent surge in popularity. He got a high seed with a heavy board effort, but would have been here anyway, Yakuza's a fairly big deal now. Not big enough however, and Bomberman won an unspectacular match.

What could this mean?: I'm pretty convinced now that Bomberman is the perfect fodder line character. He has the apathy factor Pac-Man does but is not as strong or significant. To put this into some perspective, Pac-Man got to be playable in Smash and Bomberman's an assist trophy. And Kiryu is fodder. He might build strength over time but for now he's quite weak. 2002 excluded, is he the weakest 2-seed ever? He has to be up there. At least he looked better than Kane. Also Majima might be the true weakest character in the bracket, look out for that. Finally, shout out to the casuals for not getting fooled on this one. They're having a good year for sure.

This was a pretty uneventful day. Luckily the next one's a banger.
