Trivia

• Toph made a surprise commentary appearance during Ultimate singles (despite only being scheduled for Melee commentary), helping commentate a portion of Top 32.
• The loser's side of Melee Top 8 consisted entirely of Smashers from Florida (with 3 out of the 4 being specifically from CFL), while the winner's side was all players that lived out of state.
• This is the first CEO Hungrybox has not won since 2015.
