'''HTC Throwdown''', was a major ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' [[tournament]] that was held in San Francisco, California on September 19th, 2015, at the Folsom Street Foundry, the same venue used for the Get Smashed at the Foundry series of weekly tournaments. It held the record for being the largest one-day Smash tournament for singles, before being surpassed by [[2GGT: Mexico Saga]]. It is hosted by Showdown Smash and HTC eSports, and livestreamed on their respective channels on [[Twitch]]. HTC provided over $12,000 in pot bonuses, with $10,000 going to singles and $2,000 to doubles. The tournament was notable for being {{sm|Mango}}'s lowest performance in 5 years, placing 17th after losing to {{Sm|DruggedFox}} and {{Sm|MacD}}, since he got 25th at [[Apex 2010]] while [[sandbagging]] with {{SSBM|Mario}} as his Scorpion Master alter ego.
