The tournament is part of {{Trn|GenAssist}}, a fundraiser stream to help the GENESIS 8 crew with the six-figure cost of postponing GENESIS 8. The stream will run from January 27th-29th, 2022 and will stream Ludwig Ahgren Championship Series 4 matches on January 29th, with the top 12 taking place on January 30th after the GenAsssist event ends.

Because the tournament is region-locked to North America, Ludwig told his viewers to give subscriptions to {{Sm|Leffen}}'s [[Twitch]] so he could fly over from Sweden to attend. He did the same to {{Sm|Sora|p=Australia}}'s Twitch to convince him to stay in the United States to attend the tournament.

<nowiki>*</nowiki>DQ'd in Losers
==Trivia==
*Prior to the tournament, {{Sm|Zain}} and {{Sm|Leffen}}'s Sheik had an exhibition match for {{Trn|GenAssist}}, which Leffen won 5-1. The following day, he DQ'd due to food poisoning-induced stomach issues that morning. As Leffen had been staying at Zain's house, this prompted memes that Zain poisoned Leffen's food as retaliation for losing the showmatch.<ref>[https://twitter.com/ZainNaghmi/status/1487514768877441024?cxt=HHwWgMCy0aKz26QpAAAA Zain jokes about food poisoning Leffen.]</ref><ref>[https://imgur.com/t3qabnT.png Meme about the situation.]</ref>
*{{Sm|Axe}} and {{Sm|Smashdaddy}} both had to DQ due to internet issues.
