With {{Trn|Major Upset}} following Summit 6 a week later, MkLeo decided to switch things up. He decided to focus on Aegis, essentially dropping Joker, Byleth, and all of his other pocket characters. MkLeo would end up getting 2nd, beating Sparg0 3-2 in Winners Finals, but couldn't close Grand finals, where Sparg0 would win 3-1 and 3-0. | With {{Trn|Major Upset}} following Summit 6 a week later, MkLeo decided to switch things up.

The most important tournament was right around the corner, and many top players, such as {{Sm|Yoshidora}}, acola, Tweek, Sparg0, and {{Sm|Miya}} were all attending {{Trn|Battle of BC 5}}. This tournament | The most important tournament was right around the corner, and many top players, such as {{Sm|Yoshidora}}, acola, Tweek, Sparg0, and {{Sm|Miya}} were all attending {{Trn|Battle of BC 5}}. This tournament would determine the #1 spot between between acola, Tweek, Sparg0 and MkLeo. For Day 2, MkLeo would optimize the Aegis, but ended up losing to {{Sm|Zomba}} 3-1 at the Top 24 qualifier, meaning he would have to start Day 3 on Losers side. On Day 3, MkLeo switched it up and went Byleth, hoping to make a giant Losers run like he did in the past. Unfortunately, he would end up playing against a red hot Kameme, who ended up winning 3-2 with a 2 stock in Game 5, ending his BoBC run at 13th, which is his worst placement ever since {{Trn|Umebura Japan Major 2019}}, where he got 33rd. This means that he is no longer in the debate for the #1 player in the world, as Tweek, acola, and Sparg0 would end up outplacing MkLeo, with all of them getting 9th, 2nd, and 1st respectively. | ||
