Tournament summary

Following criticisms from the first invitational, several changes were implemented for this event that made it more in-line with a traditional, Summit-esque invitational. Initially scheduled for September 14th-15th, the tournament was delayed by two weeks due to conflicts with Umebura SP 11. In addition, additional side events took place on the 27th, extending the event by an additional day.

The first two seeds Sparg0 and Sonix underperformed in their round robin pools, with Sparg0 losing to MkLeo and Zomba 0-3 to place third in his round robin and Sonix losing to Light and ShinyMark 1-3 and losing the head-to-head tiebreaker with ShinyMark to place fourth in his round robin. As such, the two ultimately faced off on the losers side of bracket, with Sparg0 defeating Sonix with Roy 3-2 for 13th, the first time Sonix placed outside the top 3 since he finished 25th at Super Smash Con 2023. In addition, the fourth seed SHADIC also underperformed, losing to Asimo 0-3 and Maister 2-3 to place third in his round robin before being eliminated at 13th by Marss 3-2, tying Get On My Level X as his worst placement in 2024 so far.
