Smash Summit 2 is a national Super Smash Bros. Melee invitational tournament held in Los Angeles, California from April 21st-24th, 2016 by Beyond the Summit, an eSports company known for their Dota 2 coverage. Singles, doubles and side events for Melee can be expected to be hosted. The tournament is being held at the Summit gaming house, a private residence, and so is not open to the general public.

Trivia

• This tournament was the first time ever that Mew2King defeated Armada in a best of 5 set, winning 3-0 in Winners Semis (although Armada ended up defeating him 3-0 in Losers Finals).
  • The last time Mew2King took a set off Armada was in 2014 at SKTAR 3.
• This was the very first Melee tournament in California that both Armada and Mango entered where they did not meet in Grand Finals.
