Only two players seeded for top 8 were eliminated outside of top 8: Zomba and {{Sm|Tweek}}, the latter of whom lost to Sisqui and Glutonny for 9th.

In a repeat from GOML the previous week, both Sonix and Sparg0 met each other in Grand Finals, and although Sonix took the first set 3-0, Sparg0 ultimately defeated Sonix a second time 3-1, taking his first ever {{Trn|Smash Factor}} title and becoming the first player to win a major/supermajor in all three regions of North America. On the other hand, MkLeo fell to Glutonny 3-1 to place 5th, the first time MkLeo attended a Smash Factor and failed to make Grand Finals since {{Trn|Smash Factor 2013}} in the ''[[Brawl]]'' event. | Only two players seeded for top 8 were eliminated outside of top 8: Zomba and {{Sm|Tweek}}, the latter of whom lost to Sisqui and Glutonny for 9th.
