A week before the tournament, many people started to complain about the low seeding of many players, especially European players such as {{Sm|Glutonny}} and {{Sm|cyve}}. Even after GENESIS 6 announced bracket feedback, many still complained that the seeding was inaccurate and should be redone. In response to these complaints, {{Sm|Leffen}} had messaged GENESIS 6's seeders, telling them to change the seeds. The insuing discussion resulted in several statements which Leffen found rude or offensive and posted to [[Twitter]].<ref>https://twitter.com/TSM_Leffen/status/1089375754205446145</ref><ref>https://twitter.com/TSM_Leffen/status/1089379682875785217</ref> Seeder ALT messaged on Discord "so if 500 penguins entered a tournament in antarctica and i won it should i be a top 10 seed?" This created massive backlash on Twitter, with people complaining to GENESIS 6 to fire their seeders. In response to all this backlash, {{Sm|Bear}} has stated that he was working on adjusting the seeding, and apologized for the rude behavior some seeders have shown. <ref>https://twitter.com/BearUNLV/status/1089570501498785792</ref> The seeding was subsequently redone by a new seeding team and ALT was removed from the seeding team in the PGStats discord, though the rest of the original seeding team went on to seed majors such as {{Trn|CEO 2019}}, {{Trn|EVO 2019}}, {{Trn|Super Smash Con 2019}}, {{Trn|The Big House 9}}, and {{Trn|GENESIS 7}} without controversy. | A week before the tournament, many people started to complain about the low seeding of many players, especially European players such as {{Sm|Glutonny}} and {{Sm|cyve}}.
