Prior to the event, the tournament saw many notable players DQ due to various reasons, most notably visa issues ({{Sm|AlanDiss}}, among other Mexican players) and flights getting cancelled ({{Sm|Sonix}}, {{Sm|Onin}}, and {{Sm|Blacktwins13}}); other notable DQs include {{Sm|Light|p=Connecticut}}, {{Sm|Jakal}}, and {{Sm|Scend}}. All these top player dropouts significantly dropped the tournament's point value, from S+ tier a few weeks prior to A+ tier days before the event. On the other hand, this tournament marked the international debut -- ignoring pre-locals -- for {{Sm|Doramigi}}, {{Sm|Toriguri}}, {{Sm|Gorioka}}, and {{Sm|Tarakotori}}, and is also {{Sm|Ron}}'s first North American event. | Prior to the event, the tournament saw many notable players DQ due to various reasons, most notably visa issues ({{Sm|AlanDiss}}, among other Mexican players) and flights getting cancelled ({{Sm|Sonix}}, {{Sm|Onin}}, and {{Sm|Blacktwins13}}); other notable DQs include {{Sm|Light|p=Connecticut}}, {{Sm|Jakal}}, and {{Sm|Scend}}.

This event saw strong runs from Doramigi and Toriguri, who were both seeded outside the top 8 | This event saw strong runs from Doramigi and Toriguri, who were both seeded outside the top 8 but were both able to make upsets or overcome difficult matchups to place top 8. In Doramigi's case, despite {{SSBU|Jigglypuff}} considered by many to be one of {{SSBU|Min Min}}'s worst matchups, he was able to defeat {{Sm|BassMage}} 3-1 to advance to Winner's Finals. In Toriguri's case, although he historically struggled against Gorioka's {{SSBU|Joker}}, he was able to defeat {{Sm|Lemmon}} 3-1 and {{Sm|MkLeo}} 3-0 to move on to top 12 Winner's side. Although Toriguri then lost to Hurt in a close game 5 match, he was able to defeat {{Sm|Big D}} 3-0 to enter top 8 on the Loser's side. | ||
On the other hand, the biggest upset of the event was on #3 seed {{Sm|Glutonny}}, who placed 33rd after losing to #30 seed {{Sm|Armadillo}} 3-1 (upset factor 7), a player who he previously lost to in the crew battle, and #38 seed {{Sm|Ludo}} 3-0 (upset factor 8) for 33rd, his worst placement at an offline ''Ultimate'' event. In addition, #20 seed Gorioka was upset in pools by #109 seed {{Sm|Vic}} 3-1 (upset factor 5), although he made a small Loser's run to 25th, only missing his seed by 1 placement. Finally, Ron was knocked into Losers by {{Sm|Lancelot}} 3-1 | On the other hand, the biggest upset of the event was on #3 seed {{Sm|Glutonny}}, who placed 33rd after losing to #30 seed {{Sm|Armadillo}} 3-1 (upset factor 7), a player who he previously lost to in the crew battle, and #38 seed {{Sm|Ludo}} 3-0 (upset factor 8) for 33rd, his worst placement at an offline ''Ultimate'' event.

Finally, Ron was knocked into Losers by {{Sm|Lancelot}} 3-1, however he also made a small Losers run, which included eliminating MkLeo 3-1 at 13th, to place 9th and match his seed; MkLeo therefore lost to the two players he fought against in the crew battle. | ||
In top 8 Winner's side, Hurt defeated Doramigi 3-0 and Sparg0 defeated {{Sm|Yoshidora}}, leading the two to meet each other in a highly-anticipated Winner's Finals match. Hurt ultimately came out on top, defeating Sparg0 3-0 to enter Grand Finals. In the Loser's side, Toriguri ultimately placed 5th after defeating BassMage and losing to Yoshidora, tying his placement at {{Trn|Maesuma TOP 15 "FINAL"}} as the best solo-Banjo | In top 8 Winner's side, Hurt defeated Doramigi 3-0 and Sparg0 defeated {{Sm|Yoshidora}}, leading the two to meet each other in a highly-anticipated Winner's Finals match.

Yoshidora then defeated Doramigi before meeting Sparg0 in Loser's Final, where he came close to winning the runback but lost in a game 5 last hit scenario. Hurt ultimately defeated Sparg0 in the runback 3-1, making him the first [[Snake]] player other than {{Sm|Ally}} to win a major in all ''Smash'' games, as well as the first Snake player to win a major since {{Trn|Pound 2019}} almost five years prior. | ||
