Trivia[edit]

  • This is Axe's first major tournament win with two or more members of the 2018 MPGR top 6 + PPMD in attendance, and this is also the first time a Pikachu main won under the same circumstances.
    • In addition, this is the first Smash Summit that was won by a non-God.
  • This is the first Smash Summit where Mew2King and SFAT did not attend, as Mew2King declined his invitation and SFAT qualified at Smash 'N' Splash 5 but declined due to a wedding.[1]
    • This is also S2J's first Smash Summit where he was invited rather than voted in.
  • This is the Melee Smash Summit with the most international attendance, with six non-U.S. players competing, either through invitation, qualifying, or being voted in.
  • This is the first ever tournament that at least two of the Five Gods attended where none of them placed Top 4 (even including locals); the first tournament with two of the Five Gods was Zero Challenge 3 in 2007, featuring Mew2King and Mango, which was before the latter was dubbed a "god".
    • This is also the first major since Viva La Smashtaclysm to not have any of the Five Gods in Grand Finals (or even Top 3).
  • This is the only Smash Summit to feature either a Captain Falcon or Pikachu in grand finals.
    • This is also the first Smash Summit where a Fox player did not make grand finals.
  • This is the first Smash Summit where every player that was voted in won at least one set while competing.
  • This is the first Smash Summit to not feature either Armada or Hungrybox in grand finals.
  • This tournament is often noted to be where iBDW rose to be a top player. After going 0-3 in pools, he went on a Losers run defeating S2J, Moky, Mango, Amsa, and Hungrybox, 4 of which were top 10 players at the time.
