In addition, {{Sm|Whisky}}'s 17th-place finish tied {{Sm|Jul}}'s performance at {{Trn|Shine 2019}} and {{Sm|Xillion}}'s performance at {{Trn|Low Tide City 2022}} as the best performance for a {{SSBU|Robin}} player at a major/supermajor up to that point.

Winner's side saw {{Sm|Sparg0}} win his {{Trn|Crown the Third}} runback against {{Sm|MkLeo}} -- the first time Sparg0 defeated Leo's {{SSBU|Joker}} -- as well as his {{Trn|Get On My Level 2023}} runback against {{Sm|Sonix}} to enter Grand Finals. 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. | |||
