==Tournament Summary==
 
Some notable upsets occurred during this tournament. {{Sm|Mango}} who at the time was a [[SSBM|Jigglypuff]] [[main]] on the come up beat {{Sm|Mew2King}} in pools, then considered to be the best player in the world. Mew2King then lost to {{Sm|Chillin}} in the losers top 8 qualifier to finish at a underwhelming 9th place. Mango continued his run by upsetting {{Sm|Ken}} in winners-semis. He then lost to {{Sm|HugS}} in winners finals and Ken in a losers finals rematch to finish at 3rd place. Ken after getting upset by Mango made a losers run beating {{Sm|ChuDat}}, {{Sm|PC Chris}}, Mango, and HugS in 2 sets of grand finals to win the tournament. After the tournament many analysts wrote off Mangos win against Mew2King and 3rd place finish as a fluke until his win at [[Pound 3]].
==Stagelist==
* Starters: [[Battlefield]], [[Final Destination]], [[Dream Land]], [[Yoshi's Story]], [[Fountain of Dreams]], [[Pokémon Stadium]]
* Counterpicks: [[Mute City]], [[Green Greens]], [[Rainbow Cruise]], [[Kongo Jungle 64]], [[Brinstar]], [[Poké Floats]], [[Corneria]], [[Jungle Japes]]
 
No stage striking provision was present in the documented ruleset.
