The tournament has become known for its upsets; heavily-favored players to win the tournament such as {{sm|Salem}}, {{sm|Mr. R}}, {{sm|Nairo}}, {{sm|Vinnie}}, {{sm|Ally}}, and ZeRo were knocked into Losers' bracket earlier than expected by supposedly lower-level players. Among the most notable placings included {{sm|MVD}} placing 2nd, defeating Vinnie and Ally, {{sm|Denti}} placing 3rd, taking a set off of Nairo, {{sm|Nakat}} placing 4th, beating {{sm|Tyrant}} and ZeRo, {{sm|Zinoto}} placing 5th, defeating {{sm|Tyrant}}, {{sm|Nick Riddle}}, and {{sm|Atomsk}}, and {{sm|Will}} placing 9th, taking sets off of {{sm|Salem}} and {{sm|Mr. R}}. ZeRo, the most heavily-favored player to win the tournament, placed only 5th, and there were no Meta Knight players in the top 4 placings. {{sm|Nakat}} and {{sm|False}} also took 2nd place in doubles. Some of the most notable [[money match]]es included {{sm|Seibrik}} defeating {{sm|Salem}} in a best of 7 $50 match (with around $300 in side bets), and {{sm|TonyT}} defeating {{sm|Mechwarrior}} in a charity event. All the money raised for the fundraiser was donated to {{s|wikipedia|Autism Speaks}}. | The tournament has become known for its upsets; heavily-favored players to win the tournament such as {{sm|Salem}}, {{sm|Mr. R}}, {{sm|Nairo}}, {{sm|Vinnie}}, {{sm|Ally}}, and ZeRo were knocked into Losers' bracket earlier than expected by supposedly lower-level players.
