Contrasting these two mediocre finishes from Japan's best players were incredible performances from both {{Sm|Miya|p=Honshu}} and {{Sm|Tea}}. Miya especially got his revenge on players that had defeated him in their most recent set, including a clean reverse 3-0 against {{Sm|Tweek}} and a 3-0 victory against {{Sm|Light|p=Connecticut}}, in order to enter grand finals on the winner's side, his first grand finals appearance at a North American major since {{Trn|Litvitational 2}}. For Tea, his 5th-place finish marked his best open major performance since {{Trn|Kagaribi 12}} back in May, as well as his first top 8 finish at an open major during the [[LumiRank 2024.2]] season. Along the way, he replicated his performance at the pre-major Litvitational 3 by defeating {{Sm|Sparg0}} 3-2, only Tea's second win on Sparg0, and losing to {{Sm|Lima}} 2-3. | Contrasting these two mediocre finishes from Japan's best players were incredible performances from both {{Sm|Miya|p=Honshu}} and {{Sm|Tea}}.

Lima himself also made an incredible strong performance at the event, rivaling the performance he had at Litvitational 3. After losing to {{Sm|SHADIC}}, Lima tore through the loser's bracket, most notably defeating Sparg0 3-1 and Light 3-2 along the way, the first time Lima defeated both players and redeeming Lima's losses to Light at the Litvitational 3. Lima then met Miya in grand finals, where despite losing the first two games rather badly, Lima was able to perform a reverse 3-0 to reset the bracket, | Lima himself also made an incredible strong performance at the event, rivaling the performance he had at Litvitational 3.

Lima then met Miya in grand finals, where despite losing the first two games rather badly, Lima was able to perform a reverse 3-0 to reset the bracket, despite almost losing to Miya's surprising {{SSBU|Mii Swordfighter}} pick in the final game. However, Miya was ultimately able to decisively defeat Lima in the reset 3-0, notably seeing an incredibly early up air kill at the end of the second game that shocked both players and the commentators. With this win, Miya was finally able to break his streak of underwhelming major performances in North America and marked his first North American major victory since {{Trn|Rise 'N Grind 2023}}. | ||
