'''GENESIS 2''' was a tournament held by {{Sm|Sidefx}} and the crew [[DBR]] in July 2011, featuring ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' singles and doubles as main events, as well as smaller ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'' and ''[[Project M]]'' singles side events. It was the successor of the first {{Trn|GENESIS}} and one of the first ''Project M'' tournaments. Held in Antioch, California and sponsored by Red Bull and SABERGAMING, the tournament had one of the most entrants and prize money ever seen at a tourney, with over 300 attendants and $22,000 in prize money.

A [http://smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=307383 notorious incident of theft] occurred at this tournament, committed by renowned smasher and Death By Rape crew member {{Sm|Zelgadis}}. After most of the crew members had left the hotel room for the day on Sunday, July 17th, Zelgadis returned to the room with his friend Clayton to search for a jacket he had left behind, and then stole an envelope accidentally left on a bed (containing $6,000 in pot bonuses from Sabergaming), returning to Clayton's home to store the money there. After the rest of the crew accused Zelgadis of stealing the envelope when they found it was missing, Zelgadis reportedly lied to them, repeatedly saying that he had not stolen the envelope. After police involvement and almost four hours of investigation, Zelgadis admitted that he had stolen the envelope, and all of the cash was returned. The incident severely damaged Zelgadis's reputation, as well as the reputations of DBR and the Smash community as a whole.


==Summary of events==
{{Sm|Mew2King}} also [https://smashboards.com/threads/unity-ruleset-infraction-announcement-new-infractions-handed-out.307582/ received a red card] under the Unity Ruleset Infraction System at this tournament, for "[[intentional under-performance]]", when he chose {{SSBB|Ganondorf}} in a ''Brawl'' pool match against {{Sm|Sade}}.
In ''Melee'', GENESIS 2 was Armada's first major victory in North America, after multiple finishes just outside of first place in the previous two years. It was also the first major that {{Sm|Mang0}} competed in without [[sandbagging]] since {{Trn|Pound 4}} a year prior. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CQ9c-2lAld4 The two faced off in grand finals], in a repeat of the previous GENESIS grand finals, with Mang0 playing {{SSBM|Fox}} instead of {{SSBM|Jigglypuff}}, but Armada came out on top this time around, winning the set 3-2.
 
{{Sm|Taj}} made an impressive run to 3rd place, upsetting Mang0 in winners' semis, although he later lost [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Omi9MyweC_I their rematch in losers' finals] (in which he forfeited the set while down 0-2, after getting four-stocked in game 2). {{Sm|Shroomed}} also placed 6th using Dr. Mario, upsetting {{Sm|Dr. Peepee}} in losers' top eight, marking one of the best mid-tier tournament runs of the era.
 
Crew battles for both ''Melee'' and ''Brawl'' were extended to West Coast vs East Coast, due to the lack of crews from region specific areas. West Coast ended up winning both crew battles, with {{Sm|Gnes}} KO'ing {{Sm|Atomsk}} in the [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D2MEHOxEWWo ''Brawl''  match] and Mang0 taking out Dr. PeePee in the [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B18EuHxBn1w ''Melee'' match].

The incident severely damaged Zelgadis's reputation, leading to him being expelled from the crew and his lack of involvement in competitive ''Smash'' after this tournament.
 
{{Sm|Mew2King}} also [https://smashboards.com/threads/unity-ruleset-infraction-announcement-new-infractions-handed-out.307582/ received a red card] under the Unity Ruleset Infraction System at this tournament, for "[[intentional under-performance]]", when he lost a ''Brawl'' pool match against {{Sm|Sade}} while using {{SSBB|Falco}} and {{SSBB|Ganondorf}}, neither of which being characters he was ever known to seriously use competitively prior to or after this tournament.
