Cirque Du CFL 3 was a Super Smash Bros. Ultimate major held in Orlando, Florida, from March 9th-10th, 2024.

Tournament summary

The biggest upset in pools was on #3 seed Light, who was upset early on in bracket by #67 seed AppleWiz 3-0 (upset factor 10). Outside of Light, most of the other top 8 seeds went through the first day and top 64 unscathed aside from #5 seed Kola, who was upset 2-3 by #37 seed JMafia (upset factor 5). Top 32 saw #4 seed Shuton lose 2-3 to #13 seed MuteAce; he ultimately faced and defeated Light in Losers 3-0, knocking the Litvitational 2 winner out at 17th. In addition, Kola lost to #21 seed Anathema to place 25th. Finally, #7 seed SHADIC defeated #2 seed Miya 3-1, winning the runback from Litvitational 2, while in top 8 winner's side, #1 seed Zomba was defeated by MuteAce (upset factor 7); all these upsets and defeats left Winners' Final devoid of a previous Ultimate major winner.

Top 32 saw a Cinderella run from #30 seed Peabnut, who after losing to Dabuz 0-3 in Winner's bracket, eliminated Shuton 3-0 (upset factor 6), Miya 3-2 (upset factor 7), and Zomba 3-0 (upset factor 8) before being denied the runback from Dabuz 2-3 to place 4th, Peabnut's best run at a major as well as the best Mega Man performance in the post-online metagame. In addition, Peabnut eliminated the last three remaining players who had won an Ultimate major, and as such the tournament was guaranteed a new Ultimate major winner. This major winner ultimately came down to a fight between Texas players SHADIC and MuteAce, with SHADIC winning their match in Winners' Finals and MuteAce eliminating Dabuz 3-2 in Losers' Finals. In Grand Finals, MuteAce was able to reset the bracket 3-1, but the second set was significantly more difficult, ultimately going to game 5. However, an unfortunate SD from MuteAce on his second stock seemed to have sealed the deal, and SHADIC won the final game, becoming the first solo-Corrin player to win a major.
