Editing El Salvador

'''El Salvador''' is a ''Smash'' region that encompasses the [[wikipedia:El Salvador|country of the same name]]. It borders [[Honduras]] to the north and [[Guatemala]] to the south. Tournament activity primarily takes place in the country's capital city, San Salvador.

El Salvador is considered one of the three strongest ''Smash'' regions in [[Central America]], alongside Guatemala and [[Costa Rica]]. Its strength is the result of having many players succeed at large events both in and outside their region, though not to the extent of Guatemala and Costa Rica's best players. The first to do so was {{Sm|Luisfer}}, who was able to see respectable performances at ''[[Smash 4]]'' majors in the [[United States]]. ''[[Ultimate]]'' especially greatly improved El Salvador's presence in the competitive scene thanks to the region receiving greater recognition on the [[PGR]], whose improved international multiplier for the ill-fated [[Spring 2020 PGRU]] season allowed Salvadorian tournaments to count for the rankings for the first time in their competitive history. The post-pandemic metagame also saw improved results from both {{Sm|Romeo Santos}} and {{Sm|Wolfen}}, both of whom became the first Salvadorian players to rank on a global ranking on the [[LumiRank 2024.2]]. This metagame also saw the rise of the {{Trn|Legends}} series, which became the largest tournament series in Central America and attracts players from all across Central America and [[Mexico]].
