Trivia
- Donkey Kong, Kirby, and Final Fantasy are the only universes to have their playable antagonists as available fighters, but not any of their playable protagonists.
- Since the repeat of this event added Sephiroth and Sora to the lineup, Final Fantasy also shares this distinction, as Cloud wasn't made available.
- Piranha Plant and [{Kazuya]] are the only playable antagonists not to be a selectable character in the event.
- Sephiroth was also not selectable during the initial tourney as he wasn't released at the time, but was made available when it was repeated.
- Lucina is the only Echo Fighter that is not selectable, but their base fighter is.
- The fighters representing the villains on the banner are also the fighters who appear in both the The Rivals and Best Friends trailers for Ultimate, in which they serve as "arch-rivals" to their respective universes' protagonists.
- Yoshi is the only Mario sub-universe to not have any of its fighters available for this Event Tourney.
