*This is the first national-level ''Melee'' tournament where {{SSBM|Link}} was utilized to win the event, with {{Sm|Aklo}} notably defeating {{Sm|KoDoRiN}} in the second set of Grand Finals using only Link.

*Aklo humorously forgot to take his trophy home with him after winning the tournament.<ref>https://twitter.com/NotAklo/status/1609641976281825281</ref>
**As this tournament was the first event to count for 2023 rankings, Aklo's victory spawned numerous (truthful) jokes about how Link won Grand Finals of a modern ''Melee'' tournament before solo {{SSBM|Sheik}} (or any other top tier character) did.
**This is also the not the first time Aklo defended NYC from KoDoRiN in Grand Finals using Link, as Aklo had previously done so at [[The Nightclub VIP: iBDW|The Nightclub VIP]] as well.
