At 255 entrants, this was the fifth largest Smash 64 tournament of all time, and {{Sm|Isai}}'s first supermajor tournament victory since {{Trn|Apex 2014}}. This was the first tournament since {{Trn|Super Smash Con 2016}} where {{Sm|Alvin}} missed top 8 since, placing 9th at the event. After, Isai defeated #1 seed {{Sm|kysk}} in Winners' Semis 3-0, but then lost to reigning Super Smash Con champion {{Sm|Kurabba}} in Winners' Finals 1-3. After his loss, Isai did not drop a game, with dominant 3-0's over both {{Sm|SuPeRbOoMfAn}} in Losers' Finals and Kurabba in both sets of Grand Finals. | At 255 entrants, this was the fifth largest Smash 64 tournament of all time, and {{Sm|Isai}}'s first supermajor tournament victory since {{Trn|Apex 2014}}.

At 223 entrants, this is the largest ''Brawl'' singles event since {{Trn|Apex 2014}} in 2014, and the first ''Brawl'' singles event to surpass 200 entrants since the end of its main competitive lifespan. {{Sm|Bike}} upset {{Sm|686M}} in Winners' Top 24 with an upset factor 7, becoming the first player to get a major upset on 686M in the post-''Smash 4'' era. However, 686M tore up the Losers bracket, defeating 8 players, including {{Sm|Player-1}} twice in Grand Finals, to take the tournament. As 686M used {{SSBB|Ice Climbers}} for most of his run, this was the first ''Brawl'' major/supermajor won by a player who did not use {{SSBB|Meta Knight}} since {{Trn|Super Smash Con 2016}}. Also, since {{Sm|Mikeray4}} and {{Sm|Player-1}} won doubles using {{SSBB|Snake}} and {{SSBB|Diddy Kong}}, this was the first time since {{Trn|Critical Hit 3}}, the first ''Brawl'' major, that a team won a major doubles bracket without using Meta Knight. | At 223 entrants, this is the largest ''Brawl'' singles event since {{Trn|Apex 2014}} in 2014, and the first ''Brawl'' singles event to surpass 200 entrants since the end of its main competitive lifespan. {{Sm|Bike}} upset {{Sm|686M}} in Winners' Top 24 with an upset factor 7, becoming the first player to get a major upset on 686M in the post-''Smash 4'' era.
