Remember, the closer two characters are on the list, the more likely it is for a subversion to happen. For example, it's more likely for a subversion to happen between Red Fork and Ace, than it is for a subversion to happen between PHX-001 and Tommy, for example.

The definition of subversion itself is when there's a law or trope that generally occurs, but an exception occurs. When a situation usually calls for a trope, but the exact opposite happens, that's what they call a subverted trope. Well, in this case, when a character defeats someone higher on the list, they're subverting the list.
