Given his recent wins at Smash Ultimate Summit 4 and Collision 2022, Sparg0 will be the favorite to win the event. However, he can only do so by conquering opponents who have beaten him in the recent past, including MkLeo, Maister and Chag. The high concentration of top talent prompted MkLeo to suggest that winning this tournament would be harder than winning Smash Summit.
