At | At 682 entrants, this is the largest ''Melee'' Shine tournament since {{Trn|Shine 2018}}. It is also one of the largest Shine events for ''Melee'' in terms of top talent, with 6 of the [[SSBMRank Summer 2023|most recent ranking's top 10]] in attendance. In addition, {{Sm|Mango}} was scheduled to compete in ''Melee'' singles, but was late to the airport and missed his flight.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://twitter.com/C9Mang0/status/1695106087362707750|title=Mango missing his flight}}</ref> Given that Mango missed his flight and {{Sm|Hungrybox}} (the other remaining [[God]] in active competition) was on vacation, this tournament marks the first ''Melee'' major with none of the Five Gods since {{Trn|MLG New York 2005}} in February 2006, over 17 years prior. | ||
{{Sm|Cody Schwab}}'s victory marked the first and only time a {{SSBM|Fox}} player, the origin of the namesake of the tournament series, won an installment of Shine; he also broke {{Sm|Zain}}'s major winning streak spanning from {{Trn|Fête 3: By the Sea}} to {{Trn|Super Smash Con 2023}}. {{Sm|Aklo}}'s run to 3rd place, accruing wins over {{Sm|Wevans}}, {{Sm|Jmook}}, {{Sm|SDJ}} and most notably bracket demon {{Sm|aMSa}} marked his best tournament run at a notable ''Melee'' event since his victory at {{Trn|Redemption Rumble}}. | {{Sm|Cody Schwab}}'s victory marked the first and only time a {{SSBM|Fox}} player, the origin of the namesake of the tournament series, won an installment of Shine; he also broke {{Sm|Zain}}'s major winning streak spanning from {{Trn|Fête 3: By the Sea}} to {{Trn|Super Smash Con 2023}}. {{Sm|Aklo}}'s run to 3rd place, accruing wins over {{Sm|Wevans}}, {{Sm|Jmook}}, {{Sm|SDJ}} and most notably bracket demon {{Sm|aMSa}} marked his best tournament run at a notable ''Melee'' event since his victory at {{Trn|Redemption Rumble}}. | ||

Despite being the final Shine tournament, this marks the smallest Shine tournament for the most-recent ''Smash'' game, with the entrants count not even cracking 400 entrants. The number of top talent attending the event was also noticeably smaller than previous iterations: with {{Sm|Tweek}}'s dropout due to {{Trn|Tera}} the following week, only 3 of the [[LumiRank Mid-Year 2023|most recent ranking's top 50 players]] were in attendance. | Despite being the final Shine tournament, this marks the smallest Shine tournament for the most-recent ''Smash'' game, with the entrants count not even cracking 400 entrants.
