* | *Since {{Trn|Luminosity Makes BIG Moves 2024}}, Sonix started to place frequently in 2nd places in the major and supermajor tournaments. This led many fans to believe that he's suffering from "2nd Place Curse", and whether if he overcomes the said curse has become one of the topics fans normally discuss about majors and supermajors he is attending. | ||
**He has also not placed any lower than 2nd place at any event he has attended since {{Trn|Super Smash Con 2023}}, having achieved a streak of making it into grands at offline majors 10 times in a row, one of the longest Grand Finals streaks alongside {{Sm|MkLeo}}'s streak from {{Trn|MomoCon 2019}} to {{Trn|Smash World Tour 2021 Championships}}. | |||
