Melee doubles Top 8 was a showdown between two of the most powerful teams, Counter Logic Gaming’s duo of Kevin “PewPewU” and Zac “SFAT” Cordoni against the godly team of Juan “Hungrybox” and Jason “Mew2king” Zimmerman. After defeating both gods at Winner’s Finals with a solid 3-1, the CLG duo watched as Hbox and m2k defeated Sami “ Druggedfox” Muhanna and McCain “MacD” LaVelle for the chance of a rematch aT Grand Finals.

Meanwhile, Melee singles was full of surprises. After 10 years, Hugo “HugS” Gonzalez managed to get Top 8, defeating PPU and Druggedfox before finally losing to Hbox to make 5th place. SFAT went to game 5 vs Hbox for what seemed like the thirteenth time, this time managing to win at a last-hit scenario. We got to see Justin “Plup” McGrath’s impressive Luigi that got him into top 8, defeating Druggedfox and giving Mew2king a run for his money. SFAT defeated another god and sent m2k to losers. Hbox lost by literally one frame and finally Mew2king 3-0ing SFAT for a bracket reset and then winning the tournament.
One thing that deserves special mention is 2saint, a Puff main from NYC, who managed to be the only unranked player in top 16. CEO Dreamland was his first major tournament, which made for an interesting debut.

Defeating 2 top 10 PGR members, Eric “ESAM” Lew entered Top 8 from Winner’s side after being absent for so long and put up a good fight against Gonzalo “ZeRo” Barrios but was ultimately defeated.
