The tournament featured several players top 20 players from outside Europe: {{Sm|Sparg0}} from [[Mexico]]; {{Sm|Tweek}}, {{Sm|Light|p=Connecticut}}, and {{Sm|Zomba}} from the [[United States]]; and {{Sm|Yoshidora}} from [[Japan]].

The final seeding of the event caused some controversy due to the perceived low seeding of some players, most notably {{Sm|Bloom4Eva}}, who was seeded 11th, and {{Sm|Luugi}}, who was seeded 14th. This has led some to believe the seeding was meant to manipulate the bracket in favor of European players, as Bloom4Eva and Luugi were seeded to fight Zomba and Light, respectively, in matchups that were favored towards Bloom4Eva and Luugi. However, others have disagreed, with them mostly pointing to Bloom4Eva's underperformances at {{Trn|King Of Fields 95 3}} and {{Trn|Regen 2023}} for his final seed.

The event was an underperformance for Japan, as all three players failed to meet their seed: #4 seed Yoshidora fell to #13 seed {{Sm|Raflow}} and #6 seed {{Sm|Zomba}} for 13th; #7 seed {{Sm|Jogibu}} fell to #26 seed {{Sm|Supahsemmie}} (upset factor 4) and #8 seed {{Sm|Sisqui}} to place 17th; and #9 seed {{Sm|takera}} fell to #24 seed {{Sm|BassMage}} and #16 seed {{Sm|Tarik}} to place 13th. In addition, Luugi fell to #51 seed {{Sm|big chungus}} (upset factor 4) and #68 seed {{Sm|Youssef}} (upset factor 5) to place 49th, his worst performance at a major event. Other notable upsets prior to top 8 include #27 seed {{Sm|crêpe salée}} upsetting #6 seed {{Sm|Zomba}} (upset factor 5) and #37 seed {{Sm|NaetorU}} upsetting #12 seed {{Sm|Cosmos}} (upset factor 4). Cosmos ultimately placed 25th, losing his bet with {{Sm|EE}} on whether Cosmos could make top 8 at the next major he attended following the bet ({{Trn|Super Smash Con 2023}} was not counted due to Cosmos's injury).
