'''Patchwork 2024''' was a ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' regional and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' [[Major (SSBU)|major]] held in Raleigh, [[North Carolina]] from July 6th-7th, 2024. This event was known for being one of the few ''Ultimate'' events that banned {{SSBU|Steve}} after the release of the [[Nintendo Community Tournament Guidelines]].

==Tournament summary==
===''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''===
===''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''===
This event was the game's first major in the [[Carolinas]] region, first ''Smash'' major in the region since {{Trn|MLG Raleigh 2010}}, the first open major in the United States since {{Trn|Collision 2024}} in March, and the final United States major of the [[LumiRank 2024.1]] season. 

Although dominant in his region, this marked {{Sm|smub}}'s breakout event at a major, where as the #35 seed he upset #31 seed {{Sm|Sonido}}, #29 seed {{Sm|Mugen}}, #15 seed {{Sm|Candle}}, and #12 seed {{Sm|Wildz}} to place 9th, which ties the best major placement for a solo-Ridley player with {{Sm|rydra}}'s run at {{Trn|Crown 2}}. On the other hand, two top 8 seeds failed to make it into top 8, and in fact placed well below expectations: #4 seed {{Sm|Lima}} lost to #61 seed {{Sm|Justin24}} 1-3 (upset factor 8) and #17 seed {{Sm|IcyMist}} 2-3 (upset factor 5) for 33rd while #8 seed {{Sm|BeastModePaul}} lost to #72 seed {{Sm|Mikerowave}} 2-3 (upset factor 7) and #28 seed {{Sm|NoTag}} 2-3 (upset factor 4) for 25th. Replacing them were #9 seed {{Sm|Monte}} and #14 seed {{Sm|Jahzz0}}, with both players making their first major top 8 appearance at this tournament.

A notable incident took place during the Winner's Semi set between {{Sm|Kola}} and {{Sm|SHADIC}}, where during game 4 a fire started at the kitchen, leading to the venue's evacuation at the end of the set. Following their return, Kola won the set with a reverse 3-0, claiming his first win over {{Sm|SHADIC}} after losing to him the last four times, but then lost to {{Sm|MuteAce}} 1-3 in Winner's Finals. In the Loser's bracket, {{Sm|Zomba}} was sent to Losers by {{Sm|Wrath}} prior to top 8 but made a strong Losers run in top 8, defeating {{Sm|Peabnut}} 3-1 (only the second time he has ever defeated Peabnut), SHADIC 3-1, Wrath in the runback 3-0, and Kola 3-2 to enter Grand Finals, his best major performance since his victory at {{Trn|GENESIS X}}. MuteAce ultimately defeated Zomba in a close game 5 set, which not only marked his first major win, but the first major win for a {{SSBU|Peach}} player since {{Sm|Samsora}}'s victory at {{Trn|Shine 2019}} almost 5 years prior.

==Trivia==
*The fact that Steve was banned was intentionally left unclear in the marketing for this event. This is due to trying to get around the Nintendo Community Tournament Guidelines, which enforces that no tournament is allowed to ban a character from play or else be reprimanded by [[Nintendo]].
