On May 6th, 2019, it was announced that Smash 'N' Smash 5 would run a Waterfall Swiss bracket instead of Round Robin. Details about the Waterfall Swiss Bracket can be found [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l3Djj83FtAg here]. | |||
The change was met with a negative response. During the tournament, smashers such as {{Sm|Shoe}} and {{Sm|Captain L}} complained that they were sent into Division 3, the lowest division, despite only dropping one game.<ref>{{citeweb|url=https://twitter.com/Shoe245/status/1134516398062022657|title=Shoe's statement}}</ref><ref>{{citeweb|url=https://twitter.com/captainlpika/status/1134851620552957952|title=Captain L's statement}}</ref> Furthermore, {{Sm|Lui$}} and {{Sm|Atomsk}} both went 6-0 in their pools, however Lui$ went to Division 1 while Atomsk went to Division 2, causing some backlash on Twitter; Lui$ and Atomsk later agreed to have a Best of 3 match to see who would enter Division 1, with Lui$ securing the victory.<ref>{{citeweb|url=https://twitter.com/Real1LouieMoney/status/1134776304463691776|title=Lui$'s statement}}</ref><ref>{{citeweb|url=https://twitter.com/Atomsk92/status/1134638952000892928|title=Atomsk's statement}}</ref> | |||
