'''Arcamelee 4''' was a ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' superregional and ''[[Project+]]'' regional tournament held in Lyon, France, from November 18th-19th, 2023. It was the fourth installment of the [[Tournament:Arcamelee (series)|Arcamelee]] series, returning after a 4-year hiatus caused by the [[COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on competitive Smash|COVID-19 pandemic]]. In addition to singles and doubles events for ''Melee'', the tournament also featured a ''Project+'' singles bracket for the first time in the history of the tournament series.

With 279 entrants in the ''Melee'' singles event, Arcamelee 4 stands as the largest ''Melee'' tournament ever hosted in France, surpassing [[HFLAN Melee Edition 2017]] which held the distinction for 6 years at 233 entrants.

==Tournament summary==
{{incomplete}}
In Losers Semis of the ''Melee'' singles bracket, {{Sm|moky}} defeated {{Sm|Aklo}} 3-2 despite suffering two consecutive four-stock losses on games 2 and 3.

In a similar vein to what took place at {{Trn|Fête 3: By the Sea}} Grand Finals, {{Sm|Jmook}}'s controller began to malfunction in game 4, while being down 1-2 against moky. The game was ultimately replayed after Jmook managed to find a suitable replacement, and he ultimately won 3-2. This sparked debate in the community on what the ruling for such an event should be.

==Trivia==
*Outside of locals, this tournament marked {{Sm|Pricent}}'s first ''Melee'' singles event since {{Trn|Smash Summit 9}}, roughly 3 years and 11 months prior.
*Due to Aklo taking more stocks against moky in their set while winning less games, several people on social media have since dubbed their encounter the "Electoral College set".
