Supernova 2024 was a Smash event held in Chantilly, Virginia from August 8th-11th, 2024, and was the eighth edition in the Supernova series. It was the first tournament to take place after the series' rebranding, and as such was initially announced later than when previous iterations were relative to the tournament's starting date.

Tournament summary

Super Smash Bros.

At 241 entrants, Supernova 2024 ranks as one of the largest Smash 64 tournaments of all-time, although ranks slightly lower than past Supernova events. In terms of top players, this was the first North American tournament that wario attended since Super Smash Con 2022.

During winners top 32, SuPeRbOoMfAn made a notable upset over first seed Kurabba, winning 3-1 in their set. This marks the first time SuPeRbOoMfAn has ever beaten Kurabba in a tournament set. Despite this, Kurabba went through his losers run without much issue, eliminating Wizzrobe, Robert, wario, and KeroKeroppi, allowing him to rematch SuPeRbOoMfAn in grand finals. Kurabba and SuPeRbOoMfAn went back and forth in games, but Kurabba reset the bracket and took the tournament, both in a tense 3-2 fashion. This would mark Kurabba's return as champion in the Supernova series, previously winning Super Smash Con 2022.

In terms of other players, SuPeRbOoMfAn's run was quite notable as he solely went Captain Falcon, marking his 2nd place finish as the character's best supermajor run in recent years. Robert most notably outperformed his projected 15th seed, upsetting HAMMERHEART and Lowww to qualify for winners side of top 8. He ended his tournament run at 5th place.

Super Smash Bros. Melee

The Melee tournament saw an abundance of mid-tier players outside of Axe (who placed 9th) and aMSa(who did not attend) placing in top 64, with breakout performances from glock in my toyota playing Mr. Game & Watch, Daniel playing Yoshi, JChu playing Pikachu, and Zimberfizz playing Samus all placing 33rd, while Virginia hidden boss RapMonster placed 25th with Luigi, losing to Axe in winners and null in losers in two close game 5 sets.

The most notable mid-tier placements were from Plup, who played solo-Samus the entirety of the tournament, and Donkey Kong players Junebug and ckyulmiqnudaetr. Plup expressed on Twitter before the event that he was feeling in the mood to play Samus. Following through with the post, he easily broke into top 64 and defeated Khryke before being knocked into losers side by Spark. Afterward, he defeated Mot$ and upset Jmook, marking Jmook's second upset loss to a Samus player after Morsecode762 at Get On My Level 2023 the previous year, before he was finally stopped by Hungrybox for 9th, marking one of the best runs for solo-Samus at a major in the post-netplay era.

After losing to Joshman in winners side top 64, ckyulmiqnudaetr placed 13th notably defeating Kevin Maples and moky and ultimately falling to Krudo in losers, tying his run at Get On My Level X as his best major placement with Donkey Kong. However, his run would be overshadowed by Junebug, who went on the single best run of his career, easily making his way into top 64 where he notably defeated Zamu and Axe to make winners side of top 8, forcing the commentators to switch their top 8 lineup as Junebug was originally slated to commentate. He would then defeat Joshman 3-0 to advance to Winners Finals before losing to Mang0 3-1 and Cody Schwab 3-0 to place 3rd. This not only marked the best performance of Junebug's Melee career, but the first-ever top 3 for a Donkey Kong player as well as the character's all-time best performance, surpassing Bum's 4th place finish at MLG Long Island 2007 in prestige and solidifying Donkey Kong's status as a top level tournament threat.

This tournament also served as the breakout event for Connecticut Falco main Kacey. After losing to Joshman in a winners side top 64 qualifier, Kacey went on a monstrous losers run, where she defeated Zamu, Dawson, and Panda before falling to KoDoRiN for 13th, her best placement at a major.

This event marked the second time Jmook and moky failed to make a major top 8 in 2024, with both being upset by mid-tiers in losers. moky was defeated by Magi in winners before being eliminated by ckyulmiqnudaetr, while Jmook was defeated by Joshman in winners before being eliminated by Plup's Samus.

Supernova 2024 notably marked the final tournament in Hungrybox's "Ultimate detox", where he dropped the game for 90 days to focus on improving in Melee. Despite his "detox", he was double-eliminated by Cody Schwab for 4th, leading him to announce his return to playing Ultimate.

In a similar vein to the previous major, Winner's Finals and Grand Finals saw Cody Schwab lose twice to Mang0, cementing Mang0 as Cody Schwab's biggest bracket demon in 2024. Additionally, Mang0's victory marks his second major win of the year and tying Cody Schwab's total number of major wins that year. This marked Mang0's fourth Supernova tournament win as well, as well as finally getting a confetti celebration after asking where his confetti was when winning in 2017.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl

Super Smash Bros. for Wii U

At 296 entrants, this is the first Smash 4 singles event at Supernova to feature less than 300 entrants, and as such is also the smallest Smash 4 event in the tournament series. In addition, Mistake, Dabuz, and Tyroy, the three-best Smash 4 players in the post-Ultimate metagame, did not sign up for the event. With many other former top-Smash 4 players not in attendance, Supernova 2024 became the first Smash 4 Supernova event to not reach major status, making this event the second Smash 4 superregional in the post-Ultimate metagame, after Kyojin Dojo.

On the other hand, this event was notable for being the largest Smash 4 tournament won by a Ness player, with Marcus taking the tournament over a Cloud and two Bayonetta players, including a reverse 3-0 on Shadow_PR in Grand Finals. His win also marked the first Supernova event that was not won by a ranked player that was ranked on the PGR. It was the first Supernova event since Super Smash Con 2019 that was not won by a Bayonetta player, or had at least four Bayonetta players in Top 8.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate

Although it is the smallest Ultimate singles event in the series, Supernova 2024 is currently the largest Ultimate tournament of the year by entrants and and one of the largest Ultimate tournaments ever by top player attendance, alongside EVO 2019, Kagaribi 12, Port Priority 8 and the Ludwig Smash Invitational, notably being a "Premier" by LumiRank with over 13,900 points on the LumiRank 2024.2 TTS, with all of the top 10 from the LumiRank 2024.1 season attending, as well as the vast majority of the top 20, besides only Doramigi, Yaura (who was on hiatus) and Zackray, with most of the top Japanese players attending, including several who were outside the top 20, such as Gackt, Yoshidora and KEN, as well as Europe's new ranked #1 player on the European Ultimate Power Rankings, crêpe salée. ShinyMark was also planning on attending, but had to DQ a few days before the event due to having exams.

During Phase 1 of Pools, many upsets took place, most notable of which being #62 seed Candle losing to #574 seed LemonShark 1-2 , #46 seed MFA losing to #467 seed Swag Master 1-2, and #92 seed Dark Wizzy losing to #421 seed Naytro 1-2. In Phase 2 however, there were far more notable upsets, including #242 seed Izaiah defeating #15 seed MuteAce 2-0 (upset factor 8), and #89 seed GuyGuy defeating #40 seed Kurama 2-1; Kurama was then eliminated by #104 seed Paras 1-2 to place 129th, surpassing GENESIS X as his single worst offline placement ever. Additionally, MuteAce was the lowest placing top 20 seed after being eliminated by #39 seed Monte 2-3 to place 65th, his worst offline placement of the entire year, and Tea had one of his worst offline placements of the entire year tied with his Kowloon 12 with Kagaribi performance, losing to #17 seed Onin in a 3-0, to then get eliminated by #41 seed BeastModePaul in another 3-0.

Disqualification controversy

During the Smash 4 events, VaLoR chose to replace RiskTKR in the singles event as RiskTKR had planned on DQing while VaLoR forgot to sign up. In addition, Ouch!? switched with VaLoR and teamed with TemporaryPlan in the doubles event. Despite getting permission to do all of this from the bracket manager and some of the tournament organizers, all of the aforementioned players except TemporaryPlan were ultimately disqualified from the entire Supernova event by a different tournament organizer for bracket manipulation.[1] This disqualification affected the Ultimate bracket, as both RiskTKR and Ouch!? were still in the winner's side of bracket prior to their disqualification, with Ouch!? especially being in the top 128. RiskTKR later identified said tournament organizer as Roflfox and alleged that Roflfox did not make the decision with the head organizer of Supernova.[2] This claim was corroborated in a now-deleted Tweet from Roflfox, where he disqualified three players on the basis of Rule 3.15, which discussed "alting".[3] Roflfox later responded to the controversy, saying that he and two other organizers did not know the four players had permission to play under different tags.[4] Nevertheless, the incident and Roflfox's deleted Tweet drew were criticized online, especially from the Utah community, with many also questioning why all four players were disqualified from their other non-Smash 4 events despite the incident taking place in Smash 4. RiskTKR ultimately received a refund on his registration, partial funding for his travels, and free entry to Luminosity Makes Moves 2024, however it is unknown whether the other three players received any compensation. In addition, Roflfox later apologized for his deleted Tweets and how the situation was handled, but stood by his decision.[5]
