This tournament was initially B+ tier on the [[LumiRank 2024.1]]; however, following many major upsets that took place at {{Trn|DELTA 8}}, in particular upsets from {{Sm|TamaPDaifuku}}, {{Sm|Akakikusu}} and {{Sm|Lv.1}} (all players who were at this tournament), the event's score rose significantly and allowed it to reach {{SSBU|major}} status. This allowed the first seed {{Sm|Glutonny}} to become the third player to achieve the [[Ultimate Triple Crown]], making him the first non-Japanese player to achieve this milestone. In addition, Glutonny became the second non-Japanese player to win a Japanese major. He won the tournament convincingly, only dropping 6 games in total (2 to {{SSBU|Falco}} main {{Sm|DEAR}}, 1 to {{SSBU|Mr. Game & Watch}} main {{Sm|Kaeru}}, 2 to {{Sm|Fui}} and 1 to {{Sm|MASA}}). | This tournament was initially B+ tier on the [[LumiRank 2024.1]]; however, following many major upsets that took place at {{Trn|DELTA 8}}, in particular upsets from {{Sm|TamaPDaifuku}}, {{Sm|Akakikusu}} and {{Sm|Lv.1}} (all players who were at this tournament), the event's score rose significantly and allowed it to reach {{SSBU|major}} status.
