'''Smash Summit 12''' is an upcoming ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' invitational tournament. It will be the twelfth installment of the [[Tournament:Smash Summit (series)|Smash Summit series]] for ''Melee'', and will be held on December 9th-12th, 2021. Like previous Smash Summits, it will be held at the Summit Gaming House, a private residence house in Los Angeles, California, and will be closed to the general public. The tournament will have a ''{{s|wikipedia|Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl}}'' crew battle.


{{Sm|iBDW}} took first place at the event, defeating {{Sm|Leffen}} 3-2 and {{Sm|aMSa}} 3-1 to make it into winners' finals for his first time at a Summit event. In his set against {{Sm|Zain}} in winners' finals, iBDW would lose game one and unexpectedly counter-pick Zain to {{SSBM|Final Destination}} game two, which was widely seen as an unpopular decision. Despite this, iBDW managed to two-stock Zain on FD to even up the score 1-1. After losing game three, iBDW would take the set to a game five and beat Zain 3-2 for the first time in his career to make it into grand finals on winners' side, where he would 3-0 {{Sm|Mango}} to take his first Summit win as well as his second major tournament win without dropping a set. Mango also had an impressive run at the tournament. Fresh off his previous Summit win, he managed to defeat {{Sm|Wizzrobe}} in winners' quarters 3-2 before getting 3-0'd by Zain in winners' semis. In the losers' bracket, he went on to defeat Leffen and Wizzrobe 3-2 to reach losers' finals, where he defeated Zain 3-1 before getting 3-0'd by iBDW in grand finals to secure a 2nd place finish.
{{Sm|Pipsqueak}} was automatically invited to the tournament, as he had qualified for {{Trn|Smash Summit 11}}, but had to withdraw the day before the start of competition due to travel difficulties.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://twitter.com/BTSsmash/status/1415390093343281153|title=Pipsqueak's Smash Summit 12 invite}}</ref> {{Sm|Leffen}} was invited after obtaining a visa.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*{{Sm|Pipsqueak}} was the first player announced for both Smash Summit 12 and {{Trn|Smash Summit 13}}, qualifying for the latter by winning {{Trn|SAME Finale 2021}}.
*{{Sm|Pipsqueak}} was the first player announced for both Smash Summit 12 and Smash Summit 13, qualifying for the latter by winning {{Trn|SAME Finale 2021}}.
*This is the first ''Melee'' Smash Summit without {{Sm|Axe}} or {{Sm|Plup}} competing, making {{Sm|Mango}} the only player to participate in every ''Melee'' Smash Summit.
*Smash Summit 12 was the first Summit to have five voted-in players, rather than six (due to {{Sm|Leffen}} being able to sort out his visa issues and attend at the last minute).
**However, the attendance of {{Sm|Tyler Swift}} maintained the presence of a {{SSBM|Pikachu}} player in every Summit.
*This is the first Smash Summit where every player in attendance was able to win at least one set.
*This is the first Smash Summit to omit a competitor in the official poster (albeit by accident). Near the bottom right corner, the poster mistakenly features {{Sm|DarkGenex}} (a VIP of the event) instead of {{Sm|Tyler Swift}}.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://twitter.com/TylerSwift420/status/1469435220847783937?t=jLOZTugf2m5NtLsfXlj3qA&s=19|title=Poster mistake}}</ref>
*{{Sm|Sora|p=Australia}}'s first two pools sets were delayed from Friday to Saturday due to him feeling food poisoning on Friday morning.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://twitter.com/LilTrickshot/status/1469349493514461184|title=Sora's food poisoning}}</ref>
*All three reverse 3-0's of the tournament happened to {{Sm|Leffen}}. They were done by {{Sm|Wizzrobe}}, {{Sm|iBDW}}, and Mango.
*Mango and Leffen's set in losers' quarterfinals marks the fourth time Mango has four-stocked Leffen on a unique stage in tournament, due to Mango four-stocking him on [[Pokémon Stadium]] in game 3.
**Mango has four-stocked Leffen on [[Fountain of Dreams]] at {{Trn|Apex 2014}}, {{SSBM|Final Destination}} at {{Trn|The Big House 4}}, {{SSB|Dream Land}} at {{Trn|Get On My Level 2019}} and now Pokémon Stadium at Smash Summit 12.
*This is the first ''Melee'' Summit to feature two [[spacies]] facing each other in grand finals.
*This is the first ''Melee'' Summit where grand finals ended in a 3-0.
