 This tournament was the 2nd S-tier event of the [[Panda Global Rankings v3]] season. With 47 out of 50 players on the [[Panda Global Rankings v2]] in attendance (the only absentees being #19 {{Sm|KEN}}, #22 {{Sm|Hyuga}}, and #49 {{Sm|Taiheita}}), Civil War is widely considered to be one of the most important and hardest ''Smash 4'' events of all time.
-In a similar vein to {{Trn|CEO 2016}}, the tournament was infamous for having a massive number of upsets. Day 1 of ''Smash 4'' singles notably saw two {{SSB4|Shulk}} players, #79 seed {{Sm|Nicko}} and #75 seed {{Sm|Kome}}, make Top 96 on winner’s side, getting wins over #15 seed {{Sm|ANTi}} (upset factor 5) and #11 seed {{Sm|Tweek}} (upset factor 6) respectively. The first day also saw the unexpected double-elimination of the top 2 seeds, {{Sm|ZeRo}} and {{Sm|MkLeo}}. #1 seed ZeRo lost to #65 seed {{Sm|Xzax}} (upset factor 12) and #101 seed {{Sm|Luhtie}} (upset factor 13), placing 49th, marking the worst placement of his ''Smash 4'' career, along with his first loss to {{SSB4|Zero Suit Samus}} since losing to {{Sm|Nairo}} at {{Trn|MLG World Finals 2015}} nearly two years prior; #2 seed MkLeo, whose underperformance may have been attributed to potential sickness,<ref>https://twitter.com/Mkleosb/status/845788669843816448</ref> lost to #639 seed {{Sm|Meteor}} (upset factor 15) and #55 seed {{Sm|AC}} (upset factor 10), also getting his worst placement in ''Smash 4'' at 65th. Before the end of the day, #4 seed {{Sm|Ally}} was sent into loser’s side by #36 seed {{Sm|Locus}} (upset factor 7), while #7 seed {{Sm|VoiD}} was also eliminated, losing to {{SSB4|Donkey Kong}} main and #39 seed {{Sm|HIKARU}} (upset factor 5) in winner’s after attempting to [[counterpick]] with {{SSB4|Fox}}, and ANTi in loser’s, ending his run at 33rd.

 Day 2 continued to see several more upsets, with the remaining top 8 seeds, aside from #5 seed {{Sm|Dabuz}}, all getting eliminated before Top 8. #3 seed Nairo was eliminated by #22 seed {{Sm|Fatality}} (upset factor 6) and Locus (upset factor 8), placing 9th; #4 seed Ally placed 25th, getting eliminated in loser’s by #20 seed {{Sm|ESAM}} (upset factor 5), who lost the first game of the set counterpicking as {{SSB4|Mewtwo}}, but won the next three with {{SSB4|Samus}}; #6 seed {{Sm|komorikiri}} was also eliminated by Fatality (upset factor 4) and #9 seed {{Sm|Larry Lurr}}, placing 17th; #8 seed {{Sm|Mr. R}} was eliminated by #17 seed {{Sm|CaptainZack}} and HIKARU (upset factor 5), also placing 9th.
