'''The Match: The Fight For No. 1''', or simply '''The Match''', was a series of ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' showmatches hosted by {{Sm|Ludwig}} on December 15th, 2023. Due to the closeness of their respective seasons and the lack of a [[List of major tournaments (SSBM)|major]]-level event to end off the year, {{Sm|Zain}}, {{Sm|Cody Schwab}}, and the {{Team|Melee Stats}} team agreed that the winner of The Match would be ranked #1 on the [[SSBMRank 2023]]. Additionally, the match of Ludwig vs. [https://youtube.fandom.com/wiki/NoahJ456 NoahJ456] was a [[money match]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' for $20,000, the largest amount for a money match in ''Smash''.

The undercards were first-to-5 and the main match was first-to-10.
