There were several points of contention during the ''Melee'' singles events. At the beginning of {{Sm|Shroomed}} vs. {{Sm|Mew2King}}, which was a Sheik ditto, both players agreed to not chaingrab one another as per Gentleman's rule. However, once Mew2King was down 2-1 in the set, he told Shroomed he wanted to start chaingrabbing again. While this was technically legal by the ruleset, it did result in some controversy about whether or not this was good sportsmanship. | There were several points of contention during the ''Melee'' singles events.

Leffen ended up winning the replay 3-2. This led to disputes about whether the replay should have been allowed, as many top players have noted their disapproval of the decision. In addition, many players noted the problem in allowing players to make tournament-changing decisions. <ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HacnHLQNjzA Leffen's POV of the set]</ref> | ||
