Tournament summary
Smash 64
Melee
Brawl
At 223 entrants, this is the largest Brawl singles event since Apex 2014 in 2014, and the first Brawl singles event to surpass 200 entrants since the end of its main competitive lifespan. Bike upset 686M in Winners' Top 24 with an upset factor 7, becoming the first player to get a major upset on 686M in the post-Smash 4 era. However, 686M tore up the Losers bracket, defeating 8 players, including Player-1 twice in Grand Finals, to take the tournament. As 686M used Ice Climbers for most of his run, this was the first Brawl major/supermajor won by a player who did not use Meta Knight since Super Smash Con 2016.
Smash 4
Ultimate
At 2,606 entrants, this is currently the third-largest Ultimate singles event and the largest Ultimate singles event since 2019.
acola and Miya won doubles, becoming the first full Japanese team to win Ultimate doubles at an international major since Shuton and Zackray won at The Big House 9 in October 2019, almost four years prior.
The third day of the tournament saw a slew of upsets to the point where a Twitter upset bot was overloaded and died.[1] The most notable upsets were on the #1 seed Sparg0, who was upset by #64 seed Ly (upset factor 11) and #32 seed Aaron (upset factor 9) to place 49th, tying GENESIS 6, 2GG: Kongo Saga, and GENESIS 7 as his worst offline placement ever. Other notable players who were eliminated early include #23 seed Jakal, who was upset by #279 seed Crash101 (upset factor 8) and #87 seed TM7_ZAP (upset factor 4) to place 129th; #14 seed Sisqui, who was upset by #115 seed Jules and #110 seed Dany (both upset factor 6) to place 97th; and #10 seed Kurama, who was upset by #119 seed Peanut (upset factor 7) and #58 seed Geist (upset factor 5) to place 65th. In addition, #62 seed IcyMist upset #3 seed Sonix (upset factor 9) on Winner's side, although Sonix ultimately made it into top 32.
The top 32 notably had the three best Corrin players in the world at that time -- SHADIC, Neo, and Ly -- start out on the Winner's side of bracket. In addition, Olimar had the most representation in the top 32, at 4 -- Shuton, Dabuz, Noi, and Candle.

Trivia
- During the second round of the Smash 64 Combo Contest, the camera cut away from the winning combo, performed by Huntsman with two controllers, who walked up to the judges' table prior to the final hit. This initially led everyone to believe the combo had failed, with the Charge Shot missing Fox. However, the combo actually succeeded with Fox falling back into the Charge Shot's range for the KO, earning it the nickname "The Invisible Combo".[8]
- Huntsman later agreed to redo the combo on stream after he won.[9]
- This tournament marks the first time Isai has won a Smash 64 supermajor since Apex 2014, as well as being his first win in Super Smash Con singles.
- Conversely, this was first tournament where Alvin missed top 8 since Super Smash Con 2016, placing 9th at this event.
