The winners of yesterday's scheduled matches are Cave Story, by a 15-13 margin over Shovel Knight, and Doki Doki Literature Club!, by a 17-9 margin over INSIDE. As for the tiebreaker, it rages on after another 12-12 split between Bastion and What Remains of Edith Finch yesterday.

Some thoughts:
- Cave Story's upset isn't quite the tremendous shock it would have been before Shovel Knight faltered in Round 1, but it's still a major surprise. Pre-contest, more brackets expected Shovel Knight to win the whole thing (2) than correctly called Cave Story advancing to Round 3 (just 1).
- On the other side, DDLC won its match in expected fashion, recovering nicely from its Round 1 flop. However, no one should count out arguably the most important progenitor of the modern indie trend at this point; with any luck, their Round 3 match should be good.
- Same result, opposite paths. This time, Bastion was the game steaming to a commanding early lead, while Edith Finch was the one slowly coming back to force a tie. So much for trends, amirite?
