==Declined players==
 
Some players, though either invited to the Summit directly or nominated for the Player Voting rounds, declined their offers due to unavailability. Players like {{Sm|Professor Pro}}, {{Sm|aMSa}}, and {{Sm|Abate}} declined nominations for the voting round. {{Sm|Hungrybox}} was the only player who declined direct invitation due to work conflict pre-voting. After the voting, it was revealed that {{Sm|Leffen}} [https://twitter.com/kptdota/status/660140896311095296 could not attend] due to the same Visa issues that prevented him from attending {{Trn|The Big House 5}}. As a result, the Summit Staff replaced him with who they deemed the next best player in the world, {{Sm|Shroomed}}, who was eliminated in Round 5 of the voting round.

In the two day Challenge Round (November 5th-6th), each player was given $250. Per each day, players were given one challenge each where they could challenge any other player to a Duel match, a Low-Tier match, a Mine match, or a Bro-Up match. After the two days, the total amount of money remaining for each player would consist of each player's winnings.
 
*A Duel match would simply consist of a classic Best of Three singles match under the [[SBR]] ruleset. Both players put down $50 and the winner takes all.
 
*A Low-tier challenge would consist of another Best of Three match under the [[SBR]] ruleset, except the only legal characters were {{SSBM|Donkey Kong}}, {{SSBM|Yoshi}}, {{SSBM|Zelda}}, {{SSBM|Roy}}, {{SSBM|Mewtwo}}, {{SSBM|Mr. Game & Watch}}, {{SSBM|Ness}}, {{SSBM|Bowser}}, {{SSBM|Pichu}}, and {{SSBM|Kirby}}. The challenger puts down $75 while the challengee puts down $50 and the winner takes all.
 
*A Bro-Up match would consist of a classic Best of Three doubles match under the [[SBR]] ruleset. After all redirects are complete, both the challenger and the challengee can choose any partner of his choice (partners can decline to participate). The challenger puts down $75 while the challengee puts down $50 (partners are not forced to put anything down). The winning challenger/challengee receives $100 while his partner receives $25.
 
*A Mine match can only be initiated by players who have $0. The challenger can only choose the four players who have the most money. While the challenge is a Best of Three singles match, the challengee can choose any stage for their games, including [[banned stage]]s. If the challenger wins, he receives $50. If the challengee wins, he does not receive any money.
 
If a player was challenged, he can redirect the challenge to another player up to two times per day, where the redirected player is not allowed to redirect and is forced to play. A player can only be challenged up to three times per day (redirects count as challenges).
