* Melee doubles was a side event organized by the community and not an "official" part of EVO.

==Controversy==
The event came under controversy during the grand finals set of the ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]'' event between {{Sm|Lima}} and {{Sm|CaptainZack}}. Both players didn't seem to take the set seriously, as evidenced by both players' seemingly lack of staidness throughout the set and by Lima granting CaptainZack a "homie [[stock]]." Additionally, during game 6 of the set, both players held [[Bullet Climax]] in place for nearly two minutes, which caused [[tournament organizer]] {{Sm|Bear}} to come on stage and issue both players a [https://twitter.com/BearUNLV/status/1025978601055776768 yellow card]. Many top players asserted that this set tarnished the competitive integrity of the event,<ref>https://twitter.com/DabuzSenpai/status/1025978214978445312</ref><ref>https://twitter.com/MVG_Mew2King/status/1025980476807294977</ref> and, reportedly, most of the audience members attending EVO had left the venue before or during grand finals. CaptainZack apologized after the match for his "disrespectful showing", but stated that he was "truly trying his best" throughout the set. <ref>https://twitter.com/CaptainZack_/status/1025996248380203008</ref> Lima also apologized for giving a "homie stock" to CaptainZack, saying that he did it because he was playing one of his best friends and didn't want the match to end with a [[self-destruct]]. Moreover, he explained that it wasn't his intention to "make grand finals look like collusion or childish", but that he simply "play[s] better when [he] plays to have fun".<ref>https://twitter.com/LimaBayo/status/1026004629786517504</ref>

==Trivia==
* This is the first year where the lineup announcement stream was not co-hosted by Mike Ross. Instead, Tekken Project and EVO staff member Mark "MarkMan" Julio was the co-host.
* This is the first EVO since 2014 that doesn't feature a total of nine games in the main EVO lineup.
*''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' was confirmed to replace {{forwiiu}} in the event if it was released in time for EVO 2018.<ref>https://twitter.com/mrwiz/status/971921848945528833?s=21</ref> However, this did not take effect as it will release four months after EVO 2018.
* This is the first time {{Sm|Armada}} has lost to a non-top 6 player since {{Sm|Amsah}} in 2010 (excluding sandbagging), as {{Sm|Swedish Delight}} defeated Armada in winners top 24.
** Armada embarked on an impressive losers run after his loss to Swedish Delight, defeating {{Sm|Gahtzu}}, {{Sm|Mew2King}}, {{Sm|Zain}}, {{Sm|S2J}}, {{Sm|Mango}}, {{Sm|Hungrybox}}, and {{Sm|Plup}} before losing to Leffen 3-0 in grand finals.
* This is the first time a non-god won ''Melee'' singles post-EVO 2013, with {{Sm|Leffen}} defeating Armada in grand finals.
