Trivia

• Guildhouse held Pre-Genesis 9 the day before the event, and is holding DeGenesis (Genesis 9) after the first and second days.
• This marks the first overseas appearance for Armada since 2019, although he is only attending GENESIS 9 as a commentator.
• This is the first GENESIS tournament where the Melee singles entrants outnumber the Ultimate singles entrants.
• Due to the lack of motivation and being disappointed at his placement on the SSBMRank 2022, Mango chose to sandbag the tournament with Dr. Mario, eventually losing to Taj and Matteo for 97th, his worst placement at a Melee tournament.
