*{{Sm| | *{{Sm|Canpy|Japan}} - Widely considered the best Sonic player in Japan. While it is unknown how much he regularly competed, he placed 49th at the supermajor {{Trn|Sun Rise Tournament}}, the only documented case of a Sonic player placing top 64 at a major/supermajor outside of North America. | ||
*{{Sm| | *{{Sm|Espy|USA}} - The best Sonic player of all-time. He placed 5th at {{Trn|MLG Dallas 2010}} with victories over {{Sm|Tyrant}} and {{Sm|Rich Brown}}, which is considered the best Sonic performance in the history of ''Brawl''. Outside of MLG Dallas, he notably placed 13th at {{Trn|WHOBO 2}} and 17th at {{Trn|WHOBO 3}}, and would commonly place top 8 in mid/low tier ''Brawl'' brackets. In 2014, he would retire from competition after a 9th place finish at {{Trn|WHOBO MLG}} and switched to ''Smash 4'' shortly after the game's release, but still managed to rank 65th on the [[2014 SSBBRank]], which was the highest ranking of a Sonic player during the peak of ''Brawl''. | ||
*{{Sm|Meekspeedy|Canada}} - The top Canadian Sonic player and was relatively active through most of ''Brawl''{{'}}s lifespan. While mainly competed locally during ''Brawl''{{'}}s prime, he also placed 7th at {{Trn|Get On My Level 2014}} and 49th at {{Trn|Apex 2014}}, and placed 78th on the [[2014 SSBBRank]]. In the post-''Smash 4'' era, he became the best Sonic player of the metagame, ranking 18th on the [[2016-2017 SSBBRank]] due to his 4th place finish at {{Trn|Get On My Level 2017}} and 13th place finish at {{Trn|Super Smash Con 2017}}. After 2017, he became less active and hasn't competed in a tournament since 2019. | |||
*{{Sm| | *{{Sm|StaticManny|USA}} - While more known for his performances as a {{SSB4|Sonic}} player in ''Smash 4''. He notably competed in ''Brawl'' tournaments during the 2014 season and garnered some notable results at majors, including 17th at {{Trn|SKTAR 3}} and 33rd at {{Trn|Apex 2014}}, defeating {{Sm|Larry Lurr}} at the latter tournament. His Apex run allowed him to place 68th on the [[2014 SSBBRank]], being a few spots below {{Sm|Espy}} and outplacing {{Sm|X}} on the ranking. | ||
*{{Sm|X|USA}} - The second best Sonic player of all-time. While not as active as Espy, he boasted similar peaks when he was most active, placing 5th at {{Trn|Winter Game Fest VI}} and 6th at {{Trn|MLG Dallas 2010}} defeating {{Sm|Lee Martin}}. While he saw a decline in performance and activity after MLG Dallas, he continued to place top 64 at majors such as {{Trn|Apex 2014}} and was ranked 72nd on the [[2014 SSBBRank]]. | |||
