S Factor 11 was a Super Smash Bros. Melee regional and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate supermajor held in Benito Juárez, Mexico City from July 13th-14th, 2024. It was the first tournament in the series to have the "S Factor" name, with the name change being the result of the Nintendo Community Tournament Guidelines. This tournament was notable for its large prize pool, being at 1,000,000 MXN total with half of it going to Ultimate, and its free entrants fee despite the large prize pool.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate

At 816 entrants, this is currently the largest singles Smash event in Mexico.

This event saw a cinderella run from #51 Many, who not only outplaced his seed significantly, but was also able to upset several notable players, including #14 seed MuteAce 3-2 (upset factor 4), #17 seed Skyjay 3-1, and #11 seed MkLeo (upset factor 5) to make top 8, his first-ever top 8 at a major-level tournament.

On the other hand, the event saw a slew of upsets, leading many international players to underperform. MuteAce was eventually eliminated at 49th after losing 2-3 to #59 seed Duplex (upset factor 4), his worst placement of the season. Other international players who underperformed include #6 seed Zomba, who lost to #11 seed MkLeo 0-3 and #21 seed Big D 2-3 (upset factor 4) to place 17th; #7 seed Asimo, who lost to #26 seed Guilheww 1-3 (upset factor 4) in Winner's to ultimately place 13th; #8 seed Glutonny, who lost to #25 seed Capitancito 0-3 and #30 seed AndresFn 0-3 (both upset factor 4) to place 25th; #12 seed Lima, who lost to #32 seed SuperDog 0-3 (upset factor 3) in Loser's to place 17th; and #13 seed Sisqui, who lost to #52 seed Nair^ 2-3 (upset factor 4) in Winner's to ultimately place 25th. In addition, #1 seed Sparg0 was upset by #17 seed Cosmos 2-3 (upset factor 8) and #2 seed Sonix lost to #15 seed ShinyMark (upset factor 6); however, both were able to make it into top 8 on the Loser's side, with Sparg0 defeating MkLeo, tying up their record for the season. All-in-all, only one top 8 seed entered top 8 in Winner's Finals: #5 seed SHADIC. Finally, this tournament marked the first time a Kirby player placed top 16 at a major/supermajor, with Guilheww ultimately placing 13th, as well as the first time Cosmos made top 8 at a major since KOWLOON 5.

In top 8, #9 seed Gackt defeated SHADIC to make Winner's Finals, the third time he had made it into such a position at a major, while ShinyMark easily cleaned up Many 3-0 to meet Gackt in Winner's Finals, where he defeated him 3-0 to move on to Grand Finals. On the Loser's side, SHADIC defeated Sparg0 for the first time 3-2, which included a high-percent three-stock comeback in game 4, but lost against Sonix 2-3 in their runback. Sonix then ran though Gackt to meet ShinyMark in Grand Finals and was able to reset the bracket 3-1; however, ShinyMark was able to prevail and defeat Sonix 3-2, cursing Sonix with yet another 2nd-place finish at a major. ShinyMark became the first Pikachu player since ESAM to win a major and supermajor, breaking the "pre-local" curse along the way as he also won the S Factor pre-local, and was the second of three new major winners in the final weekend of the LumiRank 2024.1 season.
