Shelao's opponent was originally slated to be Spanish streamer and YouTuber Viruzz, Ampeter's opponent was also Spanish streamer and YouTuber Papi Gavi, and Mayichi's opponent was originally slated to be American streamer Amouranth. Amouranth suffered an eye injury caused by DK Money that ultimately prevented him from competing. He was replaced by Bulgarian streamer Misho.[7] Papi Gavi failed the medical tests for his neuroblastoma and was replaced by Spanish singer Abraham Mateo.[8] Amouranth canceled her appearance four days before the event due to the consequences of ovarian failure. Therefore, Mexican streamer Samy Rivera, better known as Rivers, who previously fought TikToker and influencer Marina Rivera, also known as Rivers on social media, was chosen to fight Mayichi. Mayichi's fighter was announced shortly before the fight began.[9]
