Tournament summary

Super Smash Bros. Melee

Although aMSa had registered to compete, he ultimately did not attend due to his sore throat.[1] This left Inngenn, the second-best player in Japan, to continue his streak of regional wins. After flawlessly getting through Top 64, he defeated Skerzo in the Winners Semi-Final, but was then knocked into loser's by Sanne. Inngenn then defeated Skerzo again and double-eliminated Sanne, earning his third consecutive Kowloon victory.

This was the first Premier event of the LumiRank 2024.2 season, having a large amount of Japan's top talent coming to the event as well as two overseas players in attendance; Sparg0 and Yoda Cage. The only notable top Japanese players missing from the tournament were Yoshidora, Yaura, Neo and Kaninabe. The first day of pools ran up until top 192.
