Although these performances still established Sparg0 as one of the best in the world, it wasn't helping him in his race for #1, especially with acola's continued dominance in Japan. In addition, Sparg0's race to #2 was also becoming tighter after {{Sm|Miya|p=Honshu}}'s string of equally-strong performances. Not helping his case was his performance at {{Trn|Port Priority 8}}, which saw Sparg0 lose to {{Sm|KEN}} before being eliminated by {{Sm|Riddles}} for 17th, yet another underwhelming finish at an important event; with Sonix winning the event, a few players even went as far as to question whether Sparg0 would end up outside the top 3. Following the event, Sparg0 acknowledged his struggle to adapt to the game's fast-changing meta and promised to come out stronger at the final invitational of the year, {{Trn|Watch The Throne}}. | Although these performances still established Sparg0 as one of the best in the world, it wasn't helping him in his race for #1, especially with acola's continued dominance in Japan.

Ultimately, Sparg0 was able to deliver on this promise. Although his Round Robin stage was somewhat shaky, which included a close game 5 set with {{Sm|ApolloKage}} and being once again swifly defeated by Light, Sparg0 was able to tear through his Gauntlet Stage defeating MkLeo 3-1 and Glutonny 3-0. The main bracket saw Sparg0 quickly dispatch the rest of the top 4, with Sparg0 defeating both acola and Miya 3-1 despite both players putting up a noticeably more competitive fight than before. Most notable among this was Sparg0's surprising dominance over his two sets against Sonix, whom Sparg0 defeated in Winner Semis 3-0 and Grand Finals 3-1, using {{SSBU|Cloud}} for every game he won instead of [[Aegis]], the character Sparg0 normally used for the Sonic matchup. Sparg0's victory at this event, especially his clean victories against acola, Miya, and Sonix, led many to reassess his overall season | Ultimately, Sparg0 was able to deliver on this promise.

Sparg0's victory at this event, especially his clean victories against acola, Miya, and Sonix, led many to reassess his overall season: many players believed Sparg0's Watch The Throne maintained his #2 position, which was confirmed with his 2nd place on the [[LumiRank 2023]]. | ||
