2GGaming, originally known as 2GoodGaming, and often shortened to 2GG is a nonprofit organization based in Southern California that hosts events for the Smash community. Since the beginning of 2016, they have grown rapidly in support, stream viewers, and tournament entrants due to consistently organizing high quality events. They are currently in a partnership with eSports Arena in Santa Ana, California which has greatly helped their development but somewhat limited their choices when picking dates for their events.
Tournament series
- 2GGT: monthly/bimonthly events starring a certain player that gets flown out to compete against SoCal's best. Their subtitles are usually '(player) Saga'. Sometimes they are dedicated to another tournament series (2GGT: KTAR Saga) or another country (2GGT: Mexico Saga). These events have grown tremendously in popularity in 2016, from less than 100 entrants at 2GGT: Fatality Saga to over 400 at KTAR Saga, culminating at 2GGT: Abadango Saga, a one-day national tournament with 564 attendees. Sometimes, usually to avoid schedule conflict with other Smash events, they hold less ambitious events instead such as 2GG: Breakthrough and 2GG: Pay It Forward. These events are dubbed "2GG" instead of "2GGT".
- 2GG Championship Series: A circuit spanning 2017 leading up to a 20-player championship with a $100,000 pot. Considered the spiritual successor to 2GGT, the qualifiers are also usually known as Sagas. 2GGC: Civil War is 2GG's largest ever tournament, and the 9th largest Super Smash Bros. for Wii U tournament of all time, with 753 entrants.
- Mega Smash Mondays (weekly)
- Wednesday Night Fights (weekly)
