In the following season, MkLeo decided to take a step back from competing to focus on his personal life, opting to only attend events in Mexico until October. He attended a few events during this time, including the supermajor {{Trn|Smash Factor X}} and the major {{Trn|Delfino Maza 2023}}. His performance at these events remained underwhelming; aside from winning two superregionals, MkLeo underperformed at most of the events he attended. For example, Smash Factor X marked the first Smash Factor event since {{Trn|Smash Factor 2013}} where he didn't make Grand Finals, as he ultimately placed 5th. In addition, this period saw MkLeo take his first unranked loss since the early metagame, losing to {{Sm|SuperDog}} 2-1 at {{Trn|Hooters Universidad Smash Ultimate}}, a regional event where he ultimately placed 4th.

Little seemed to change once October came, as the next three majors were by far the worst of MkLeo's year. The first was at {{Trn|Rise 'N Grind 2023}}, where after losing 3-0 to {{Sm|Skinny the Pooh}} in an infamous upset, MkLeo ran into Riddles in Loser's Round 4. Despite pulling out Marth, whom he used to defeat Riddles previously, Riddles won the set 3-2, eliminating MkLeo at 17th. This trend continued at {{Trn|Luminosity Makes Moves Miami 2023}}, as MkLeo lost yet another set to a {{SSBU|Mario}} player, this time to {{Sm|Kurama}}, before losing 3-1 to {{Sm|SHADIC}} for 13th. Finally, at {{Trn|Port Priority 8}} he lost to rising star {{Sm|Kaninabe}} 3-2 before losing to MuteAce in the runback 3-0 to place 17th yet again. This series of mediocre performances led many players to question whether MkLeo was anywhere near the top 10 that season, let alone in the top 10.

A recurring theme in these losing sets was MkLeo's choice of characters. His loss to Skinny the Pooh was with Joker, a character known to struggle against Mario, while his loss to Kurama was with his secondary {{SSBU|Marth}} and retired main {{SSBU|Lucina}}, leading players to question why he didn't just use {{SSBU|Byleth}} or the {{SSBU|Aegis}}, characters MkLeo used to defeat Mario players in the past. In addition, his chose to MuteAce with Byleth even though MuteAce had soundly defeated MkLeo's Byleth beforehand. As such, many also began to question whether he was juggling too many characters at the same time.
