**{{Sm|Jmook}}'s ranking of 3rd is the highest ever debut on any official global rankings for ''Melee''.

**{{Sm|Swift}}'s ranking (26th) over {{Sm|Axe}} (29th) is the first time a {{SSBM|Pikachu}} player has been ranked over Axe (albeit with a {{SSBM|Fox}} secondary).

**{{Sm|Aklo}}'s ranking of 18th marks the first appearance of a player listed with {{SSBM|Link}} as a used character on a recognized global ''Melee'' ranking since {{Sm|Lord HDL}} on the [[2014 SSBMRank]]. ~~However~~, ~~Aklo was a {{SSBM|Fox}} main whose only~~ recorded Link ~~usage~~ in MPGR-qualifying events during the ranking season was ~~in losses against~~ {{Sm|~~Zain~~}} ~~at [[Pound 2022]] and Swift at [[The Function 2]]~~, ~~making it dubious to list Link~~ as ~~one of his characters~~, ~~leaving Lord HDL as still~~ the ~~last player with substantial Link usage to make a recognized global ''Melee''~~ ranking.

**{{Sm|Aklo}}'s ranking of 18th marks the first appearance of a player listed with {{SSBM|Link}} as a used character on a recognized global ''Melee'' ranking since {{Sm|Lord HDL}} on the [[2014 SSBMRank]].

***Interestingly, he did not have any recorded usage of Link for sets won in MPGR-qualifying events during the ranking season. This was also applicable to fellow Fox main {{Sm|Pipsqueak}}, who had {{SSBM|Captain Falcon}} as a listed character, despite not using the character until {{Trn|Fête 2}} (which occurred after the ranking season in Europe).
