'''DELTA 8.5'''  was a ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' superregional held in Ota, [[Kanto|Tokyo]], Japan, on August 25th, 2024.

==Tournament Summary==
The tournament was tiered as an A-tier on the [[LumiRank 2024.2]]. However, due to a limited number of top players (only one player ranked in the top 20 of [[LumiRank 2024.1]]), the event is not recognized as a major on the wiki.

{{Sm|Shuton}} (1st seed) won the event without dropping a set, by defeating {{Sm|uame}} (9th seed), {{Sm|Reno|p=Japan}} (13th seed) and double eliminating {{Sm|KEN}} (2nd seed) in grand finals. In fact, not only did Shuton not drop a set, but the only game he dropped the entire tournament was to {{Sm|Kebanga}} (81st seed). 

The event saw a number of surprising upsets and deep runs. 3 of the top 8 finishers were seeded outside the top 8, uame, Reno, and {{Sm|Mao}} (36th seed). Reno finished 3rd by upsetting {{Sm|Eik}} (12th seed) and {{Sm|M0tsunabE}} (7th seed) while Mao finished 5th by defeating {{Sm|Ezs}} (29th seed) in group stage, {{Sm|Maister}} (3rd seed) and {{Sm|Gorioka}} (10th seed) in top 48, and {{Sm|Akakikusu}} (4th seed) in top 8.

Some other notable runs included {{Sm|yuzu}} (35th seed), {{Sm|Akari Mizunashi}} (92nd seed), {{Sm|Rinoha}} (86th seed), Kebanga , {{Sm|No.8}} (90th seed), and {{Sm|Dynamite}} (114th seed). yuzu placed 9th after upsetting Maister and {{Sm|Natsu}} (30th seed) in group stage, and {{Sm|Taikei}} (14th seed) in top 48. Maister, ended up placing 17th after being upset by Mao and yuzu.

Akari Mizunashi run to 13th began by upsetting {{Sm|Maipan}} (37th seed) in a close game 5 set. After two stocking Maipan's {{SSBU|Zelda}}, Maipan would switch to using a combination of {{SSBU|Falco}} and {{SSBU|Wolf}}. Akari Mizunashi would follow this up by upsetting {{Sm|Futari no Kiwami Ah~!}} (28th seed) 3-1, and {{Sm|Shirayuki}} (5th seed) 3-2. In top 48, he would lose to Eik, 3-1, before beating {{Sm|Kyou}} (38th seed) 3-1, and then would lose to Mao, 2-3 for 13th. 

Rinoha would finish 13th despite losing their first round against {{Sm|Kou|p=Kanto}} (43rd seed). Rinoha would win 8 sets in loser's notably upsetting {{Sm|ElleGo}} (22nd seed), {{Sm|Ryopei}} (27th seed), and {{Sm|Tarame}} (33rd seed). Kebanga would also finish 13th after upsetting {{Sm|TRIGGER}} (48th seed), {{Sm|kept}} (17th seed), and {{Sm|Tomisa}} (49th seed) in group stage, and {{Sm|chicken}} (18th seed) in top 48 while only losing to Shuton and Akakikusu. 

No.8 and Dynamite would both place 17th after upsetting {{Sm|sssr}} (20th seed) and {{Sm|NaNo}} (39th seed) and {{Sm|Huto}} (15th seed) and chicken respectively. 

Some other notable upsets during group stage included {{Sm|LiiMac}} (61st seed) over Akakikusu, {{Sm|mute}} (110th seed) and {{Sm|TAKENOACO}} (83rd seed) over {{Sm|Rimu}} (19th seed), and {{Sm|nukoeru}} (144th seed) against {{Sm|Gachipi}} (16th seed). Kept would lose to Gachipi for 65th as a consequence of both him and Gachipi being upset in pools. 

Other significant upsets in top 48 included Kyou over Gachipi, as well as LiiMac defeating {{Sm|takera}} (23rd seed).
