Trivia[]

Their artwork depicts them similarly to the Mii Fighters from the Super Smash Bros. series with Thomas as a Swordfighter, Pharrell as a Brawler, and Guy-Manuel as a Gunner. Pointing this fact out became an inside-joke in the comments at the time.
Thomas's weapon seems to be based on the Beam Katana from No More Heroes.
Pharrell is wearing Gru's scarf from the Despicable Me franchise.
Daft Punk's stock icons being merged together throughout the tournament is a reference to their album Random Access Memories, which included Pharrell Williams as a feature on "Get Lucky" and "Lose Yourself to Dance".
Oddly, they have two icons for duel rips when on the right. One is the plain artwork, and the other shows them huddled together. They are the only competitor to have this happen.
