 '''Smash Summit 12''' was a ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' invitational tournament. It was the twelfth installment of the [[Tournament:Smash Summit (series)|Smash Summit series]] for ''Melee'', and was held on December 9th-12th, 2021 at the Summit Gaming House, a private residence house in Los Angeles, California, which is closed to the general public.
-{{Sm|iBDW}} took first place at the event, defeating {{Sm|Leffen}} 3-2, {{Sm|aMSa}} 3-1 to make it into winners’ finals for the first time at a summit event. In his set against {{Sm|Zain}} in winners’ finals, iBDW would lose game one and unexpectedly counter-pick Zain to [[Final Destination]] game two, which was widely seen as an unpopular decision. Despite this, iBDW managed to three-stock Zain game two on FD to even up the score 1-1. After losing game three iBDW would take the set to a game 5 and beat Zain on {{SSBM|Battlefield}} 3-2 to swiftly make into grand finals on winner’s side, where he would 3-0 {{Sm|Mango}} to take his first Summit win as well as his second major tournament win without dropping a set. Mango also had an impressive run at the tournament. Fresh off his previous Summit win, he managed to defeat {{Sm|Wizzrobe}} in winners' quarters 3-2 before getting 3-0'd by Zain in winners' semis. In the losers' bracket, he then went on to defeat Leffen and Wizzrobe 3-2 to reach losers' finals, where he defeated Zain 3-1 before getting 3-0'd by iBDW in grand finals to secure a 2nd place finish.
