Exhibition

Melee The Links vs The Stinks Crew Battle

Before the main exhibition event, a team of 7 Links challenged team of 6 well known low tier mains (joined by "the Final Boss" Kage) to a crew battle. Unfortunately, the Links were utterly outplayed, failing to even get 1 Link to fight Kage. The battle was streamed by 8WAYRUN and can be found here on Youtube.

Melee USA vs The World crew battle

The main exhibition event of Apex featured a rematch pitting the best Melee players of the USA against the best of the World. The teams differed slightly from last year's crew battle, as the World added the new threats Gucci and Overtriforce. The USA ended up taking the crew battle again, overwhelming the World by a large margin. This time the World did not make it to the final member of the USA crew, who remained undecided between Mango and Mew2King. Had the World made to the end however, the final USA player would have likely been Mew2King, given Mango initially refused to play, opting to watch a soccer game before coming back mid-crew battle to coach the USA. The battle was streamed by 8WAYRUN and can be found here on Youtube.

Hungrybox	6	Bam	1
Shroomed	4	Armada	4
Dr. Peepee	1	Overtriforce	4
Mew2King	Did Not Play	Ice	3
Total	32	Total	24

Brawl USA vs The World crew battle

This year, crew battles were extended to Brawl as well. The results of this crew battle were upsetting as Kakera and Ally managed to pull a 9 stock comeback from the damage done by ESAM and DEHF. It could be said however, that the USA did not have the best available towards the end of the fight, as Vinnie opted to drop out of the USA team towards the end of the battle and subsequently MikeHaze was sent to fight Ally as a substitute. Due to time constraints, the battle was streamed by CLASH Tournaments instead of 8WAYRUN and can be viewed here on Youtube.

USA Player	Stocks Taken	World Player	Stocks Taken
Anti	2	Otori	4
ADHD	3	Mr. R	3
Mew2King	2	ZeRo	2
ESAM	6	9B	2
DEHF	4	RAIN	1
Tyrant	2	Mikeneko	3
Nairo	2	Kakera	5
mikeHAZE	1	Ally	4
