'''The Big House 3''' | |||
'''The Big House 3''' was a ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' and [[Project M]] [[national tournament]] held in Ann Arbor, Michigan, on October 12-13th, 2013, hosted by {{sm|Juggleguy}} and Strong Bad. It is the third event in the Big House series of tournament events, following [[The Big House 2]]. | |||
This tournament was the first time in years where American {{SSBM|Sheik}} and {{SSBM|Marth}} player {{Sm|Mew2King}} won a national tournament with at least two of the other "[[The Five Gods|gods]]" of ''Melee'' in attendance. Over the past several months, he had repeatedly lost to {{Sm|Dr. PeePee}} and {{Sm|Hungrybox}} by significant margins; however, in this tournament, he defeated Dr. PeePee 3-2, with a 3-stock on [[Fountain of Dreams]] in the last game, then went on to win both winners' and grand finals against Hungrybox in a very dominating fashion. This is commonly referred to as the beginning of the "Return of the King". | |||
