Trivia
- With 39 fighters, the repeat of Fighters of Many Faces is tied with Tools of the Trade for the highest number of available fighters available for a character-specific Event Tourney.
- Yoshi and Piranha Plant are the only characters with an alternate costume that changes their model (the former being his crafted costume and the latter being its even-numbered costumes using a pipe instead of a pot) to not appear in this tournament.
- Toon Link, Young Link and Pyra/Mythra are the only characters in this event who do not have an alternate costume that changes their model. The inclusion of the former two in this event may instead allude to the costumes that change their appearances to that of Dark Link, while the inclusion of Pyra/Mythra is likely due to their ability to transform into each other fitting with the general theme.
- Múltiples facetas, the Spanish name for this event, is a pun. It can also by translated as "Multiple faces."
- Upon the event's repeat in 2022, Min Min is the only character in Fighters Pass Vol. 2 who does not appear in this event.
