Some notable upsets occurred during this tournament. {{Sm|Mango}} who at the time was a {{SSBM|Jigglypuff}} [[main]] on the come up beat {{Sm|Mew2King}} in pools, then considered to be the best player in the world. Mew2King then lost to {{Sm|Chillin}} in the losers top 8 qualifier to finish at an underwhelming 9th place. Mango continued his run by upsetting {{Sm|Ken}} in winners-semis. He then lost to {{Sm|HugS}} in winners finals and Ken in a losers finals rematch to finish at 3rd place. Ken, after getting upset by Mango, made a losers run beating {{Sm|ChuDat}}, {{Sm|PC Chris}}, Mango, and HugS in 2 sets of grand finals to win the tournament. After the tournament many analysts wrote off Mango's win against Mew2King and 3rd place finish as a fluke until his win at {{Trn|Pound 3}}.
