An icon used in notice templates. NOTE: Tournaments that still have their registration open may not be included on this list.

This is a list of largest Smash tournaments based on the number of confirmed entrants for each event. It includes the top 15 largest Smash tournaments over any game in the series, as well as listings for each individual game separately (including the Project M mod). Only 1v1 singles tournaments are included. Online tournaments are not included.

To qualify for one of these lists, a tournament must have a minimum of 100 entrants.

The record for largest Smash tournament is currently held by EVO 2016, with 2,662 entrants for Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and 2,372 entrants for Super Smash Bros. Melee.[1]

Record progression

Overall

This table lists the historical timeline of the records for the largest Smash tournament of all time overall.

Note: Due to a lack of data, records from 2003 and earlier remain unclear.

Dates held Tournament Game Entrants Winner Notes
March 3rd, 2003-July 10th, 2005 IVGF NorthWest Regionals Super Smash Bros. Melee ~151 USA Recipherus Due to the US's patchy Smash scene at the time, combined with an underdeveloped Internet, this is probably one of the earliest known records of a tournament with a large number of entrants. The exact number of entrants is also unclear, with claims of the entrant numbers being unsourced. It has held the record for the largest Smash tournament overall for the longest time, at 2 years and 4 months.
July 10th, 2005-July 13th, 2006 MELEE-FC3 Super Smash Bros. Melee 186 USA Ken
July 13th-October 13th, 2006 MELEE-FC6 Super Smash Bros. Melee 205 USA PC Chris
October 13th, 2006-July 12th, 2007 MLG New York Playoffs 2006 Super Smash Bros. Melee 208 USA Azen Beat the record for the largest Smash tournament overall by the smallest margin, at just 3 more entrants than Melee at MELEE-FC6.
July 12th-August 24th, 2007 MELEE-FC Diamond Super Smash Bros. Melee 256 USA Mew2King
August 24th, 2007-August 30th, 2008 EVO World 2007 Super Smash Bros. Melee 270 USA Ken Fastest to beat the record for the largest Smash tournament overall at 41 days after MELEE-FC Diamond, if Melee and Smash 4 breaking the record at the same tournament at both EVO 2015 and EVO 2016 are not counted.
August 30th, 2008-January 16th, 2010 AxisGaming Super Smash Bros. Brawl 303 USA DSF First time a game other than Melee has beaten the record for the largest Smash tournament overall.
January 16th, 2010-January 6th, 2012 Pound 4 Super Smash Bros. Melee 347 USA Mango Largest Melee tournament in the pre-EVO 2013 era.
January 6th, 2012-July 12th, 2013 Apex 2012 Super Smash Bros. Brawl 400 Japan Otori Current record holder for the largest Brawl tournament.
July 12th, 2013-July 11th, 2014 EVO 2013 Super Smash Bros. Melee 709 USA Mango This tournament is considered the beginning of the Platinum Age, and despite an unprecedented number of entrants, it would be followed by even larger tournaments in the years to come.
July 11th, 2014-January 30th, 2015 EVO 2014 Super Smash Bros. Melee 970 USA Mango
January 30th-July 17th, 2015 Apex 2015 Super Smash Bros. Melee 1,037 USA PPMD First tournament to reach 1,000 entrants, and, since EVO 2013, the only non-EVO tournament to ever hold the record as the largest Smash tournament overall. However, due to the tournament's venue change, a significant number of players are suspected to have been unable to show up to the new venue. Thus, based on actual attendance, it is disputable whether Apex 2015 can be considered as holding the title of the largest Smash tournament of all time. It would also break the record for the largest tournament in the most Smash games at three: Smash 64, Melee, and Smash Wii U.
July 17th-19th, 2015 EVO 2015 Super Smash Bros. Melee 1,869 Sweden Armada While Melee at EVO 2015 broke the record for the largest Smash tournament overall, Smash Wii U had more entrants at the same event.
July 17th, 2015-July 15th, 2016 EVO 2015 Super Smash Bros. for Wii U 1,926 Chile ZeRo Beat the record for the largest Smash tournament overall by the largest margin, at 889 more entrants than Melee at Apex 2015.
July 15th-17th, 2016 EVO 2016 Super Smash Bros. Melee 2,372 USA Hungrybox Current record holder for the largest Melee tournament; first Smash tournament to break 2,000 entrants, along with Smash Wii U at the same event. Just like the previous EVO, Melee at EVO 2016 broke the record for the largest Smash tournament overall, but Smash Wii U had more entrants at the same event.
July 15th, 2016-present EVO 2016 Super Smash Bros. for Wii U 2,662 Canada Ally Current record holder for the largest Smash tournament of all time, and currently the largest Smash 4 tournament. It was the first Smash 4 tournament to break 2,000 entrants, along with Melee at the same event.

Super Smash Bros.

This table lists the historical timeline of the records for the largest Smash 64 tournament of all time.

Dates held Tournament Entrants Winner Notes
November 6th, 2010-March 19th, 2011 Osaka University 2010 100 Japan Ruoka Dancho First Smash 64 tournament to reach 100 entrants.

January 30th, 2015-January 15th, 2016 Apex 2015 188 Canada SuPeRbOoMfAn Due to the tournament's venue change, a significant number of players are suspected to have been unable to show up to the new venue, and Smash 64 had 68 DQs. Thus, based on actual attendance, it is disputable whether Apex 2015 can be considered as holding the title of the largest Smash 64 tournament of all time. It would also break the record for the largest tournament in the most Smash games at three: Smash 64, Melee, and Smash Wii U.
January 15th-August 11th, 2016 GENESIS 3 238 Japan wario
August 11th, 2016-present Super Smash Con 2016 314 Canada SuPeRbOoMfAn Current record holder, and beat the record for the largest Smash 64 tournament by the largest margin at 76 more than GENESIS 3.

July 12th-August 24th, 2007 MELEE-FC Diamond 256 USA Mew2King
August 24th, 2007-July 10th, 2009 EVO World 2007 270 USA Ken Fastest to beat the record for the largest Melee tournament at 41 days after MELEE-FC Diamond.
July 10th, 2009-January 16th, 2010 GENESIS 290 USA Mango Known as one of the first true international "supermajors."
January 16th, 2010-July 12th, 2013 Pound 4 347 USA Mango Remained unbeaten as the largest Melee tournament for three years and was the longest to hold the record; was the largest Melee tournament in the pre-EVO 2013 era.
July 12th, 2013-July 11th, 2014 EVO 2013 709 USA Mango Beat Pound 4's record with twice the amount of entrants. This tournament is considered the beginning of the Platinum Age, and despite an unprecedented number of entrants, it would be followed by even larger tournaments in the years to come.
July 11th, 2014-January 30th, 2015 EVO 2014 970 USA Mango
January 30th-July 17th, 2015 Apex 2015 1,037 USA PPMD First tournament to reach 1,000 entrants, and, since EVO 2013, the only non-EVO tournament to ever hold the record as the largest Melee tournament. However, due to the tournament's venue change, a significant number of players are suspected to have been unable to show up to the new venue.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl

This table lists the historical timeline of the records for the largest Brawl tournament of all time.

Note: This does not include Nintendo's Super Smash Bros. Brawl Tournaments (a circuit of four regional tournaments between February 16th-March 8th, 2008 where 256 entrants could register for each) due to being held before Brawl's release in North America.[22][23]

Dates held Tournament Entrants Winner Notes
July 5th-17th, 2008 Critical Hit 3 112 USA Mew2King First Brawl tournament to reach 100 entrants.
July 17th-August 30th, 2008 FAST 1 122 USA Mew2King Fastest to beat the record for the largest Brawl tournament at just 12 days after Critical Hit 3, and the fastest to beat the record for the largest tournament in a Smash game out of any Smash game overall.
August 30th, 2008-January 6th, 2012 AxisGaming 303 USA DSF Held the record for the largest Brawl tournament for three years, and beat the record by the largest margin at 181 more entrants than FAST 1, which was over twice the entrants. It beat the record for the largest Smash tournament overall, beating 270 entrants for Melee at EVO World 2007.
January 6th, 2012-present Apex 2012 400 Japan Otori Current record holder, and the only record for the largest Brawl tournament set outside of 2008. It beat the record for the largest Smash tournament overall, beating 347 entrants for Melee at Pound 4.
