Where the record and the ladder meet
83 matchups: pairings where one entry on a ranking killed another in a named work, each asking whether the death should move the ladder.
- 46
Confirms the ladder — the higher-ranked entity killed the lower-ranked one. Record and ladder agree.
- 15
Upset — the lower-ranked entity killed the higher-ranked one. The record and the ladder disagree.
- 10
Off the scale — one of these two was never ranked, so this cannot move a ranking it is not in.
- 12
It didn't stick — the record shows a kill. It was reversed, so the ranking does not move.
The record underneath them: 308 cited deaths, 40 undone. All matchups
