Draven and Undertale.

I don't hate Undertale by any means, but its victories causing its fanbase to invade b8 to be braggadocious have tainted my opinion of it, as a whole. My "least favorite" results are less determined by actual result (my apathy is due to this just being for fun) and more by what ensues on the board because of it.

For results that cost me stuff, Crono>Vincent 2008 was awful. Vincent had it, Crono's last minute comeback was dubious at best, and it cost me the Guru title (if Cloud had beaten Snake for second place, which I still believe he would have). Also going further back, Kingdom Hearts>Castlevania cost me my bracket, and I last checked on the match when Castlevania was leading, then came back to Kingdom Hearts having won.

For results I personally don't like, it has to be Majora's Mask winning GotD over Brawl and FFX. It was effectively a game from the 90's that happened to release in 2000 beating every game from the 2000's. It was kind of sad and unearned which pains me to say as I love the game, but there's nothing "of the decade" about it.

actually yeah Draven's run was annoying too

Undertale wasn't AS bad to me because it wasn't the first time it'd happened, the fans weren't as annoying here, and I actually like Undertale >_>

I will also defend Undertale. It was spurred on by people expressing their love of an awesome game, unlike Draven, and the fans were not just there to be nightmares and call us all buttsalty or whatever (maybe they were, I deliberately checked out after a while but it didn't seem nearly that bad).

Screw Draven though.

After round 2 or so they definitely were but they were never Draven levels of bad.

Other than the Undertale/Draven rallies (which were NOT fun to watch and did pretty much ruin those contests), what comes to mind first is RE4 losing badly to Mario RPG.

SSBM > CT

Even though it's my actual game preference, I hated the way that it happened. That rally bothered me much more than Undertale's. I would have preferred the "standard" results where CT was "supposed to" win.

Also, ME2 > StarCraft. I was hoping for another SC miracle run like in 2004, but it got cut short in a really anti-climactic way.

"The way it did" = Needing a rally to even pull it off? If you like the game you should want it to win on its own strength, not needing a bailout at the last minute.

It's one of the most predictable close matches ever. Everyone knew Undertale would leave it in the dust the moment it got close and that's exactly what happened.

It's true. If you thought Melee was going to out-rally Undertale when Pokemon couldn't do it because Melee barely beat a game with zero rally power, you were kidding yourself.
