As a reminder: honorable mentions are basically players that would've likely made a specific section of the rankings if they had more attendance, but they did not have enough attendance to qualify for the rankings. Dabuz is a special case for the entire rankings, as he initially planned on attending just enough events to not meet the attendance requirements (guess he didn't feel like getting ranked this season ¯\(ツ)/¯ ); however, the changes to the requirements mid-season meant that he had inadvertently attended enough to qualify. LumiRank team treated it as a special circumstance and allowed him to opt out. Lea is another special case for the entire rankings, as he missed out on being a Top 50 HM, but was grouped with them anyway due to only being 0.04 points behind #50.
It’s that time of the year again. Welcome to LumiRank 2024.2, the definitive Super Smash Bros. Ultimate ranking for the second half of 2024. Join us in celebrating the 50 players who set themselves apart from the field as some of the strongest in the game right now.

Here are the rankings for 51-100 and 101-150, with their respective honorable mentions.
HM: Leaf()
HM: Many
HM: Bobo
HM: Char
HM: Xerzal
HM: Space
HM: ΩRugal()
HM: LittN!()

As of right now, the only characters in the game not represented in the rankings as a main or secondary are:
If HMs are excluded, then the list will include:
If secondaries are excluded, then the list will include:
Now obviously will later be rep'd by Marss, will later be rep'd by Light and Kaninabe, and will later be crossed off the secondary list with Asimo.
may likely be rep'd by WebbJP later, but I am not 100% sure.
I am 50/50 on whether or not Lumirank will count Miya's secondary (I wouldn't lmao).

Apparently there was a big tournament I was completely unaware of called Dr. Insano's Bonfire that happened 4 months ago. It had some notable players like Hurt, Ken and Skyjay. I posted the link if anyone wants to check it out.
This weekend featured two supermajors, one in Japan and one in the Tristate.

This tournament had a common (but funny) theme of all of acola's bracket demons losing to a different Steve that isn't him. It also featured Doramigi beating acola 3-0 in GF set 1, then acola beating him back 3-0 in set 2, thus exchanging 3-0s.
This is the first time in recent memory that there have been 3 Steve players in top 8 of a major, granted that all 3 won with a different character at some point in the bracket.
Also, it seems that Falco has been getting increasingly elite level results as of late, not to the same level as Luigi's recent explosive results, but getting close. He is a fairly common top placing character in Japanese majors in the past few months. Definitely a character to look out for.
This is the first LMM event since LMBM 2023 where Steve is legal, following the usual Twitter poll.
After seeing that he is the new #1 in the world, Sparg0 entered New Game + mode, proceeding to absolutely demolish the competition in this event. No player in this tournament brought him to game 5. Heck, he even got 2nd in the Rivals 2 bracket (outplacing his seed) and was the only person who brought CakeAssault to game 5.
Low tier mains rejoice, cause JeJaJeJa brought Kirby all the way to 9th in this tournament beating players like Jakal and Kola. Zelda mains also eat nicely today, with Free KayFlock getting 25th.
Ness also got a lot of exposure this tournament, with ATATA getting 17th, PkChris getting 9th while beating MkLeo, and Syrup used Ness to beat Omega and he used him in both sets vs Hurt (granted that he lost both of those sets, but it is the thought that counts ).
Very early to say, but it seems like Hurt might be coming back into being a top 5 player if he keeps this up. 1st at Smash Awesome beating acola twice, Shuton twice and Akakikusu with only one loss to Shuton, and 2nd at LMBM beating Syrup twice and Peabnut, only losing to the recently crowned #1.
One thing I can say is that the year of doesn't seem to have ended with how many upset's Luigikid64 made. Wins over players like MuteAce and Tilde are quite nice. The breakout run of the tourney honestly. Just gonna say that Luigi is a really good character despite his exploitable disadvantage state and recovery, and Raru has figured out how to deal with some of Luigi's bad matchups. I don't really think touch of death characters can really be bad in Ultimate because there's just times where if a player makes a single error like misspacing an attack, suddenly they get hit and take a lot of damage or lose their stock. Punish games are getting really important in Ultimate overall so those characters just get better and better.
