Trivia

• Despite not wielding weapons in his standard movesets, Olimar was not usable in this tourney, though it is possible that the Pikmin are considered weapons.
  • However, Greninja, Pac-Man, Banjo & Kazooie, and Min Min were playable in this tourney, despite them using kunai formed from water, the Ghosts, Kazooie, and ARMS respectively in a similar weapon-like fashion.
  • Furthermore, Fox and Falco were playable despite using their blasters in their throws, though it is possible the game does not consider throws as standard attacks.
• The health bar on the banner is taken directly from Tekken 7, particularly its Season 4 iteration.
• 2024's re-run of this event ends coincidentally at the same time as the Early Access release of Heihachi Mishima in Tekken 8's Season 1 DLC.
