Tournament summary

Super Smash Bros. Melee

At 888 entrants, the Melee singles event is currently the largest Smash event in the Pacific Northwest.

This event saw a cinderella run from Nicki, who first defeated Jmook 3-2 and, after falling into losers, eliminated Aura 3-1 Swedish Delight 3-2, Axe 3-0, Cody Schwab 3-1, Zain 3-0, and Joshman 3-1, Zain having lost to Aklo's Link 1-3 for the second time within the last two majors. In addition, aMSa lost to Axe 1-3 and SDJ 1-3 for 9th while Joshman defeated both Jmook 3-2 and Hungrybox 3-1, his first win on Hungrybox. As such, this is the first Melee major since Epita Smash Arena 2 in 2008 where there were no major winners in top 4, and the first event since GENESIS 9 where there would be a new major winner.

That major winner would be moky, who after defeating Cody Schwab 3-2 for top 8 defeated Hungrybox 3-2 and Aklo 3-1 twice to win his first ever major, let alone supermajor, as well as the first Canadian Melee player to win a major/supermajor.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate

This tournament was the North American debut for Rarikkusu and Tora. Both players were ultimately able to place their seeds, despite both players being upset. #21 Tora took an early loss to #44 Nanoash (upset factor 2) in pools, while #9 seed Rarikkusu was upset by #25 MFA 1-3 (UF 3).

This event is known for #10 seed Lui$'s cinderella run to 3rd, marking the best major performance of his career. After losing to #7 seed KEN 1-3 prior to top 24, he made a six-set losers run, including going to game five for all but two sets he fought in losers. This includes defeating the other rising star of the tournament MFA in loser’s top 8 qualifier 3-0, #18 seed MVD 3-2, #3 seed Shuton 3-2 (upset factor 4), and KEN 3-2 in the runback, before losing to #1 Miya in a tense game 5 set for 3rd place, marking Palutena’s best performance since Raflow ’s third place at King Con in February 2024.

Outside of Lui$'s performance, however, the event featured little notable upsets on top players, and as such almost all the top 8 seeds made it into top 8. The sole exceptions were #4 seed Light, who had no plans on attending the event in the first place, and #8 seed Big D, who lost to #24 seed MFA 2-3 (upset factor 4) and #18 seed MVD 0-3 for 17th. The only other major upset in bracket was #42 seed Opsine defeating #12 seed Ouch!? 3-1 (upset factor 4). Conversely, this marked Snow's first North American top 8, after having failed to place higher than 9th at his last four North American events, and MVD's first major top 8 since CEO 2022.

Top 8 featured a rematch between the two best players of the season, Sparg0 and Miya. Sparg0 easily won their set in winner's finals 3-0, and although Miya was able to win the first round of grand finals 3-2, Sparg0 ultimately triumphed over Miya in the reset 3-1 to win the event. The event further cements Sparg0 and Miya as the clear two best players in the world for the 2024.2 season.
