==Tournament summary==
{{incomplete}}
In Losers Semis of the ''Melee'' singles bracket, {{Sm|moky}} defeated {{Sm|Aklo}} 3-2 despite suffering two consecutive four-stock losses on games 2 and 3.
In a similar vein to what took place at {{Trn|Fête 3: By the Sea}} Grand Finals, {{Sm|Jmook}}'s controller began to malfunction in game 4, while being down 1-2 against moky. The game was ultimately replayed after Jmook managed to find a suitable replacement, and he ultimately won 3-2. This sparked debate in the community on what the ruling for such an event should be.
