{{Sm|Mango}}, {{Sm|Hax}} and {{sm|S2J}}, who were carpooling, arrived 45 minutes late for the tournament bracket and were disqualified from their first round matches against {{Sm|A Rookie}}, {{Sm|Reason}} and {{Sm|Tafokints}} respectively. Nonetheless, Mango proceeded to win the tournament via the losers' bracket, only losing games to Hax, {{Sm|Lucky}} and {{Sm|Axe}}.
