SMFN Invitational was a Super Smash Bros. Ultimate invitational held in Virginia on August 8th, 2024, as the second of two invitationals that took place prior to Supernova 2024.

Tournament summary

This invitational notably saw most of the Japanese players in attendance underperform: Tea lost to Atreus 1-2 and crêpe salée 1-2 in his Round Robin before being eliminated by Susu 2-3 in the final bracket for 13th; Gackt lost to Peabnut 0-2 and Wildz 0-2 in his Round Robin before being eliminated by crêpe salée 1-3 in the final bracket for 13th as well; and Neo lost to IcyMist 0-2 in his Round Robin before losing to acola 0-3 and crêpe salée 1-3 in the main bracket to place 9th (crêpe salée notably using his secondary R.O.B. instead of his main). Even acola, who ultimately won the event, had a rough performance: he initially lost to Tarik 1-2 in his Round Robin before being knocked into the loser's bracket by Candle 3-2. acola eventually won the runback against Tarik in loser's finals and met Candle once again in Grand Finals, where after playing 10 games acola was able to claim victory. The 15 games between acola and Candle was notable for the large number of shieldbreaks, especially from Candle onto acola; in fact, acola ultimately won the tournament with a shieldbreak on Candle in the final game.
