==Tournament summary== | |||
This tournament is known for being {{Sm|TamaPDaifuku}}'s breakout performance. Although he had several good wins over some of Japan's best players before like {{Sm|Asimo}}, {{Sm|Yaura}} or {{Sm|Tea}}, he hasn't made top 8 at a major yet. As the twentieth seed, he lost to #4 Asimo in winner's top 32 1-3. Dropping to the loser's, TamaP will go on a 8-set long loser's run, defeating some of Japan's best players and scoring the biggest upsets of the tournament. In order, he defeated #28 {{Sm|Gachipi}} 3-2, #24 {{Sm|Kept}} 3-2, #8 {{Sm|Gackt}} 3-1 (Upset Factor 3) to enter top 8. He then eliminated of the tournament #5 {{Sm|Yamanaction}} 3-2 (UF 4), #3 {{Sm|Yaura}} 3-1 (UF 6), won the runback against Asimo 3-1 (UF 5), and lastly #2 {{Sm|Shuton}} 3-2 (UF 7) to enter Grand Finals loser's side against {{Sm|Miya|p=Honshu}}. TamaP even managed to take a set over the first seed (UF 8, tied for the biggest of the tournament) 3-0 but lost the reset 2-3 (making Miya the first major winner of the 2024.1 season). Before his eventual win in {{Trn|Seibugeki 17}} 7 months later, it was [[Bayonetta (SSBU)|Bayonetta]]'s highest placement at a ''Ultimate'' major (since the [[List of major tournaments (SSBU)|major]] status of {{Trn|VCA 2022}}, which was won by {{Sm|Bloom4Eva}}, is debatable).<br> | |||
Outside of TamaP, the two others players who entered top 8 despite not being a top 8 seed are #10 {{Sm|M0tsunabE}} (placing 7th) with wins over #26 {{Sm|Fui}} and #46 {{Sm|Abadango}} and #22 {{Sm|Huto}} (placing 5th) with wins over #27 {{Sm|Eik}}, Fui and M0tsunabe. The 3 top 8 seeds to not make top 8 are #6 {{Sm|Jagaimo}} (who DQ'd), #8 Gackt and #7 {{Sm|Umeki}}. Reaching winner's quarters, Gackt was defeated 0-3 by Miya and then fall into TamaP's loser's run 1-3 for 9th. Umeki was upset par Fui in winners 1-3 and Eik in loser's 2-3 (both UF 4).<br> | |||
Furthermore, several top Japanese players underperformed outside of top 8 seeds. This include #14 {{Sm|Reno}}, losing to #46 {{Sm|Abadango}} 1-3 (UF 3) and #155 {{Sm|Nininga}} (UF 8) for 33rd, #15 {{Sm|Chicken}} losing to #50 {{Sm|Kisha}} 0-3 (UF 5) and Umeki 0-3 for 33rd, #11 {{Sm|Noi}} losing to #54 {{Sm|MairudonaH.O}} 2-3 (UF 5) and #42 {{Sm|TRIGGER}} 1-3 (UF 4) for 49th and #12 {{Sm|Ezs}} losing to #117 {{Sm|Maipan}} 0-2 (UF 8) and #76 {{Sm|Motsuda}} 0-2 (UF 6) for 97th. | |||
