==Trivia==
*A tipsy {{Sm|Zain}} sandbagged in part of his round-robin pool with {{SSBM|Roy}} and {{SSBM|Jigglypuff}}.
*This is the first national-level ''Melee'' tournament where {{SSBM|Link}} was utilized to win the event, with {{Sm|Aklo}} notably defeating {{Sm|KoDoRiN}} in the second set of Grand Finals using only Link.
*Aklo humorously forgot to take his trophy home with him after winning the tournament.<ref>https://twitter.com/NotAklo/status/1609641976281825281</ref>
