'''Mainstage 2022''' was a ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' major and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' supermajor held in Ontario, California, on December 2nd-4th, 2022 as part of Beyond the Summit's open tournament series. The Top 6 players for ''Melee'' and ''Ultimate'' qualified for Smash Summit 15 and {{Trn|Smash Ultimate Summit 6}}, respectively. However, Smash Summit 15 was cancelled after Beyond the Summit decided to shut down following Smash Ultimate Summit 6, making Mainstage 2022 the final Mainstage as well.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://docs.google.com/document/d/e/2PACX-1vSX8YPz-HFJmt1TWhtNwiM0YawmUCiywuw9yK0GZFjRxhFkki1_tVfmkAv80l_kMjpz_OU15YzkR8Dn/pub|title=On the Future of Beyond the Summit}}</ref>

Mainstage 2022 featured the Last Chance Qualifier and The Arcadian Finals for {{Trn|The Arcadian}} circuit. Globally ranked players and non-United States residents were not permitted to enter the circuit, and dropping out from ''Ultimate'' singles' main bracket then participating in the Last Chance Qualifier was not permitted.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://twitter.com/thecheatdotcom/status/1597678246253903872|title="Dropping from the main bracket and participating in the Arcadian is not permitted."}}</ref> Four players from each of the three online qualifiers and the Top 4 players of the Last Chance Qualifier made up the 16 players of the finals. The Top 4 of the Last Chance Qualifier was not played out. The Arcadian Finals was a double-elimination bracket, where the Top 4 won a VIP trip to Smash Ultimate Summit 6. The total prize pool for the finals was $50,000, which was the seventh-largest singles pot for an ''Ultimate'' tournament.

Due to the cancellation of the {{Trn|Smash World Tour 2022 Championships}}, a ''Melee'' and ''Ultimate'' supermajor planned for the following weekend, bracket registration was re-opened from November 29th-30th, 2022. All venue fees from then on were paid to Smash World Tour. Free venue was available for anyone who was registered for the Smash World Tour 2022 Championships and hadn't registered for Mainstage 2022.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://twitter.com/BTSsmash/status/1597791017033662465|title=Mainstage registration re-opened}}</ref>

==Trivia==
*{{Sm|Ringler}} came on the brink of upsetting {{Sm|Leffen}} in Top 64, but would end up getting reverse 3-0'd after {{Sm|Leffen}} switched to Sheik in the third game.
*{{Sm|KoDoRiN}} became the second {{SSBM|Marth}} player to defeat {{Sm|Axe}} in the post-quarantine era of ''Melee'' singles, following {{Sm|Zain}}'s victory over him at {{Trn|Shine 2022}}.
**Interestingly, both players accomplished this with a reverse 3-0.
*Following a string of strong performances from the country at American tournaments, every single player from Japan competing in ''Ultimate'' singles was sent to loser's bracket before top 16, with all of them being eliminated by top 12.
*{{Sm|Nito}} and {{Sm|Marvelous_Marco}} entered as "Batman" and "Joker" respectively. Had Marvelous_Marco beaten {{Sm|Quandale Dinglelingleton}} in a Loser's side qualifying set of The Arcadian Last Chance Qualifier, both of them would have qualified through Loser's side.
*This is the first major tournament where both ''Melee'' and ''Ultimate'' singles featured an [[Ice Climbers]] player in Top 8 ({{Sm|SluG}} and Big D, respectively). Additionally, both SluG and Big D placed in the Top 4.
*After leaving {{Team|Panda}} on the afternoon of the first day of the tournament, {{Sm|iBDW}} revealed a white T-shirt with "Free Agent" written in Sharpie in his Top 8 entrance.
*This tournament marks the first ''Melee'' major won by a solo {{SSBM|Falco}} player in the post-[[Slippi]] era of ''Melee'' singles.
