The losers side of the ''Melee'' bracket was discovered to be incorrectly decided.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://twitter.com/PracticalTAS/status/1472427004767219712?s=20|title=Melee Top 12 losers bracket}}</ref> Despite the discrepancy being discovered long before the sets would have started, the bracket was not changed.
The losers side of the ''Melee'' bracket was discovered to be incorrectly decided.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://twitter.com/PracticalTAS/status/1472427004767219712?s=20|title=Melee Top 12 losers bracket}}</ref> Despite the discrepancy being discovered long before the sets would have started, the bracket was not changed.


An incident similar to the one that happened in ''Ultimate'' occurred in ''Melee'' on December 18th. In {{Sm|Professor Pro}}'s first game against {{Sm|Ice}}, he noticed the knockback on Ice's [[Reflector (Fox)|Reflector]] was strange. He stopped the game to check the in-game [[rules]] and found it was set to a [[launch rate]] of 0.9, preventing it from affecting any more games. It was confirmed the previous set had a launch rate of 1.0, meaning no other sets were affected.

He stopped the game to check the in-game [[rules]] and found it was set to a [[launch rate]] of 0.9, preventing it from affecting any more games. It was confirmed that the previous set on the same setup ({{Sm|Polish}} vs. {{Sm|Nicki}}) had a launch rate of 1.0, meaning no other sets were affected.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://twitter.com/DoghouseCorgian/status/1472375588140855305|title=The launch ratio was still 1.0 prior to Ice vs. Professor Pro}}</ref>

Following the end of the {{Sm|ProtoBanham}} vs {{Sm|Sonix}} set, it was discovered that every set in top 12 up until then was played with [[Underdog Boost]] enabled,<ref>{{cite web|url=https://twitter.com/ekzLeon/status/1472732883278307330|title=Clip of Sonix's dash attack KOing much earlier than intended}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://twitter.com/SalvatoreZomba/status/1472736297471164418?s=20|title=Photo taken of the SWT in-game ruleset}}</ref> as well as Sonix vs. {{Sm|Maister}} the day prior.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://twitter.com/LemmayKoopa/status/1472744963611975684|title=Clip of Sonix's down throw doing more damage than intended}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://twitter.com/PracticalTAS/status/1472768019646627852|title=Underdog boost was still off prior to Sonix vs. Maister}}</ref> The affected sets were one Losers' top 16 match on December 18th and the first four sets on December 19th, all Losers' top 12. The tournament continued without any sets being replayed. Many players and spectators were frustrated by the mistake and the outcome, believing that the competitive integrity of the tournament had been ruined; this was further emphasized by the tournament being the conclusion to {{Trn|Smash World Tour 2021}}, which had a $150,000 prize pool. Criticism was aimed at the [[tournament organizer]]s for failing to check the ruleset before top 12 began, however, it was revealed that the ruleset had been verified before top 12 began,<ref>{{cite web|url=https://twitter.com/TKbreezy/status/1472743789483732993?s=20||title=https://twitter.com/TKbreezy/status/1472743789483732993}}</ref> causing speculation that the rule change was made during top 12 by either a player in bracket or a tournament organizer.

Before the set with Maister vs Sonix, someone audibly changing the ruleset can be heard. <ref>{{cite web|url=https://twitter.com/tosshi11/status/1472757588546953216|title=Clip of ruleset being edited}}</ref> It is unknown whether this was done accidentally or intentionally, or by who. In a statement, Smash World Tour said they would be contacting the affected players (Maister, {{Sm|sisqui}}, {{Sm|Shuton}}, {{Sm|MuteAce}}, and Sonix), and the tournament would continue as scheduled.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://twitter.com/SmashWorldTour/status/1472779159491555328|title=SWT's statement}}</ref>
 
==Trivia==
*{{Sm|Zomba}} beat players from four continents at the tournament, the most that has ever happened for one tournament. His most notable wins included {{Sm|Riddles}} from North America, {{Sm|Br1 AV}} from South America, {{Sm|Tarik}} from Europe, and {{Sm|Shuton}} and {{Sm|KEN}} from Asia.
