==Trivia==
*Zain's third-place finish marks the highest ever placing by a voted-in player at a ''Melee'' Smash Summit event to date.
**The record was previously held by {{Sm|Duck}}, who placed seventh at {{Trn|Smash Summit 3}}, and {{Sm|ChuDat}}, who placed seventh at {{Trn|Smash Summit Spring 2017}}.
***In addition, {{Sm|aMSa}} placed seventh at this event, which would have added a third tie to the previous record.
*Outside of locals, this is the first tournament that Hungrybox failed to make Grand Finals since {{Trn|Super Smash Con 2017}} nearly nine months prior.
*This is the first Smash Summit that {{Sm|S2J}} did not participate in after being voted in every single Smash Summit previously.
*This is also the first Smash Summit where the logo does not include a fist punching through something.
