==Trivia==
*Many players were very unhappy with the event due to the single-elimination format, random stages, random seeding and lack of any lag despite rules. Players such as ALUMOX, Jorr and [[HanukkahJamboree]] were very vocal of this fact with the latter making fun of Nintendo of America via a poorly drawn MS Paint representation of a Nintendo Board Meeting.
*Due to the large number of entrants, the player pool was divided up into 4 brackets which were named after various characters in ARMS. These characters included [[Spring Man]], [[Ribbon Girl]], [[Min Min]] and [[Max Brass]].
