{{Title|Maryland/Virginia}}'''Maryland/Virginia''', abbreviated as '''MD/VA''', is a ''Smash'' region located on the East Coast of the United States. The term includes the U.S. states of {{iw|wikipedia|Maryland}} and {{iw|wikipedia|Virginia}}, as well as the {{iw|wikipedia|District of Columbia}}; some definitions include the states of {{iw|wikipedia|Delaware}} and {{iw|wikipedia|West Virginia}} (although these states both have very small ''Smash'' communities). While most of the region's activity is centered on the {{iw|wikipedia|Washington-Baltimore metropolitan area}}, which straddles the border between the two states, other centers of activity exist in Richmond and other parts of southern Virginia. Neighboring regions include the [[Tristate Area]] (particularly the Philadelphia metro area), [[North Carolina]], and [[Midwest|Pittsburgh/Northeast Ohio]].
{{DISPLAYTITLE:Maryland/Virginia}}'''Maryland/Virginia''', abbreviated as '''MD/VA''', is a ''Smash'' region located in the United States. The term includes the U.S. states of Maryland and Virginia, as well as the District of Columbia; some definitions include the states of Delaware and West Virginia (although these states both have very small ''Smash'' communities). While most of the region's activity is centered on the Washington and Baltimore metropolitan areas, other centers of activity exist in Richmond and other parts of southern Virginia. Neighboring regions include the [[Tristate Area]], North Carolina, and Pittsburgh/Northeast Ohio.


MD/VA has long been one of the busiest and most important ''Smash'' regions in the United States. As the home of {{Sm|Azen}}, {{Sm|ChuDat}}, {{Sm|Chillin}}, and more of ''Melee''{{'}}s most famous old school players, the region was considered one of the strongest in the pre-''Brawl'' era, frequently competing with the [[Tristate Area]] and [[Southern California]]. Crews like [[Ha Ha You Lose]], [[Power Underwhelming]], and [[Team Ben]] hosted many large tournaments, such as {{Trn|Game Over}} and {{Trn|BOMB 4}}, that were among the most important grassroots events nationwide, helping to significantly develop the ''Melee'' tournament scene. After ''Brawl'''s release, as players like Azen became inactive in the community, MD/VA lost of much of its strength relative to the other regions, but was still famous as the home of the {{Trn|Pound|series}} series, one of the most important national tournament series of the era. The region's national presence further declined following the failure of {{Trn|Pound V}} and the collapse of the series. However, it regained its foothold on the national stage with the introduction of the {{Trn|Super Smash Con|series}} series in 2015, as well as [[Tournament:Pound 2016|the return of Pound]] and the beginning of the {{Trn|Glitch|series}} series in 2016; this has given MD/VA the distinction as one of the few regions with more than one supermajor per year. Maryland/Virginia also hosts {{Trn|Smash @ Xanadu}}, one of the most famous weekly locals series in the nation, and is the home of [[VGBootCamp]], the largest ''Smash''-dedicated streaming channel. Finally, although still overall weaker compared to the strongest regions in the United States, the scene eventually saw the rise of many strong players, including {{Sm|Junebug}}, {{Sm|WaDi}}, and {{Sm|Zain}}.

Crews like [[Ha Ha You Lose]], [[Power Underwhelming]], and [[Team Ben]] hosted many large tournaments, such as {{b|Game Over|tournament}} and [[BOMB 4]], that were among the most important grassroots events nationwide, helping to significantly develop the ''Melee'' tournament scene. After ''Brawl'''s release, as players like Azen became inactive in the community, MD/VA lost of much of its strength relative to the other regions, but was still famous as the home of the {{b|Pound|tournament series}} series, one of the most important national tournament series of the era.

Maryland/Virginia also hosts [[Xanadu]], one of the most famous weekly locals series in the nation, and is the home of [[VGBootCamp]], the largest ''Smash''-dedicated streaming channel.


The region took a hit following the [[Cancellation of Smash World Tour 2022]], which severely affected VGBootCamp and led to the conclusions of the Glitch and Pound series. The bans, retirement, and inactivity of several of MD/VA's best ''[[Ultimate]]'' players also left their ''Ultimate'' scene significantly weaker than in previous games. Nevertheless, Super Smash Con, later rechristened as Supernova, remains the region's largest event each year, albeit often their only notable open event of the year.
