*This tournament was the first time {{Sm|MkLeo}} and {{Sm|Shuton}} faced in ''Ultimate'' outside of a weekly. Shuton maintained his perfect record against MkLeo by defeating him 3-0 in Losers Quarterfinals, making their overall record 3-0 Shuton's favor in sets and 9-0 in games.
*On November 22, 2023, Alan Bunney would claim on the podcast ''Lights Out'' that the Scuffed World Tour was the "final nail in the coffin" that canceled the {{Trn|Panda Cup}} and forced [[Panda]] to shut down. This tournament happening on the same day Panda Cup was supposed to happen put Panda in a position where they could not compete with it or any future tournament in the state they were in, forcing them to refund the reportedly millions of dollars worth of sponsorship money for not upholding their end of contracts. Bunney would emphasize that he does not blame Ludwig or the organizers for causing this situation, as they could not have known what was happening to Panda behind the scenes.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l2DpSz8mpuA&t Dr Alan Reveals EVERYTHING That Happened w/ Panda! | Lights Out Episode 36]</ref>
*The tournament was the first with all of the [[Four Horsemen]] of ''Ultimate'' in attendance ({{Sm|acola}}, {{Sm|Miya|p=Honshu}}, {{Sm|Sonix}}, and Sparg0). They would be the Top 4 of the [[LumiRank 2023]] season, which started the day after the tournament.
