EVO World
EVO World 2007 was the largest Melee tournament of all time for almost two years, with 270 entrants.
2008
EVO 2008 was the first EVO to feature Brawl as a game, replacing Melee. Over 110 players attended the tournament. CPU's R.O.B. defeated Ken's Marth in grand finals to win the tournament. The tournament was widely criticized for having many items turned on, including the Smash Ball.
2009
EVO 2009 once again featured Brawl as a game, and unlike Evo 2008, used a ruleset with items turned off.
2013
Melee was featured as a game at EVO 2013 after a six-year absence. This is the second largest Melee tournament to date, with 709 entrants, and held the record for over a year, with over twice the amount of players that attended Pound 4, the previous record holder.
2014
Melee was once again featured as a game at EVO 2014. This is the largest Melee tournament to date, with 970 entrants, surpassing the record set at EVO 2013.
