Trivia

  • Zain's third-place finish marks the highest ever placing by a voted-in player at any Smash Summit event to date.
    • The record was previously held by Duck, who placed seventh at Smash Summit 3, and ChuDat, who placed seventh at Smash Summit Spring 2017.
      • In addition, aMSa placed seventh at this event, which would have added a third tie to the previous record.
