| '''smash.gg''', founded in 2015, is a software to improve the ''Smash'' and fighting game experience for organizers, streamers, players and spectators overall. The app lets organizers host and support tournaments with features such as registration, brackets, rankings, and compendiums. They support all past and current Smash games, among various other games. Currently, it is the most widely used software for all competitive ''Smash'' events over alternatives like [[Challonge]]. It has seen a meteoric rise in popularity after the 2020 coronavirus outbreak due to its support for online tournaments and play. Popular events utilizing smash.gg include [[Tournament:The Quarantine Series (series)]], [[Tournament:The Box]], and [[Tournament:Playing for Pride]]. | | '''start.gg''', formerly known as '''smash.gg''', is a website that provides tournament organizing tools for event organizers within the esports community. The website was launched in 2015 and features the ability to host registration, form a bracket, and create rankings amongst other things. While the website initially only supported games within the ''Super Smash Bros. series'', it has since then expanded to a plethora of other games with competitive scenes, eventually leading to its rebranding to "start.gg" on May 16th, 2022 to represent this expansion.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://blog.start.gg/rebrand-announcement-and-faq-cc332188cc6d|title=Smash.gg rebrand}}</ref> As of 2020, it has seemingly become the most widely used software for organizing tournaments, surpassing earlier alternatives such as [[Challonge]]. |
