'''GENESIS''' is [[tournament]] series held annually in [[Northern California]], primarily organized by {{Sm|Boback}} and members of the [[DBR]] crew. The tournament series began in 2009 and since 2016 has been the major ''Smash'' event near the beginning of the year or season (sans 2021 and 2022 due to the [[COVID-19 pandemic]]). It is widely regarded as one of the premier ''Smash'' tournament series, especially following {{Trn|Apex}}'s decline, and one of the largest ''Smash''-centric events each year alongside {{Trn|Supernova}}, regularly boasting over 2,000 entrants.


'''GENESIS''' is an ongoing [[tournament]] series held annually in San Jose, California (previously in Antioch, California). The tournament, first held in 2009, is organized and directed by {{Sm|Boback}} and the [[DBR]] crew. It is currently widely regarded as the premier Smash tournament aside from [[EVO]] and the largest Smash-centered tournament in the world, after [[Apex]]'s decline in popularity and the organization of [[GENESIS 3]] five years after its previous installment.
