Controversy arose following the conclusion of the round robin phase, as Pool 2 saw two ties: {{Sm|Light|p=Connecticut}} and {{Sm|Dabuz}} went 3-1 (having lost to Dabuz and MkLeo, respectively) while {{Sm|Tweek}} and {{Sm|MkLeo}} went 2-2 (with Tweek losing to Dabuz and Light and MkLeo losing to Light and Tweek). Initially, it was assumed that head-to-head would be the tie-breaker, which meant Pool B would have Dabuz first, Light second, Tweek third, and MkLeo fourth; this order was presented on-stream and was initially present in-bracket. However, it was later revealed that the actual tie-breaker was game count, and as a result the order was changed to Light first, Dabuz second, MkLeo third, and Tweek fourth. This sudden order shift not only confused many players and spectators, but it also affected the final bracket: most notably, MkLeo went from facing {{Sm|Maister}}, a player MkLeo had a dominant record over; to {{Sm|Riddles}}, one of MkLeo's bracket demons and who eventually defeated him 3-0, eliminating him at 7th. In addition, many spectators questioned the seriousness of the event, and especially pointed out how MkLeo and Tweek chose to play {{SSBU|Byleth}} and {{SSBU|Sephiroth}}, respectively, for most of the event instead of their current mains. | Controversy arose following the conclusion of the round robin phase, as Pool 2 saw two ties: {{Sm|Light|p=Connecticut}} and {{Sm|Dabuz}} went 3-1 (having lost to Dabuz and MkLeo, respectively) while {{Sm|Tweek}} and {{Sm|MkLeo}} went 2-2 (with Tweek losing to Dabuz and Light and MkLeo losing to Light and Tweek).
