Smash Summit 2 was 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 were hosted. The tournament was held at the Summit gaming house, a private residence, and so is not open to the general public. This tournament is also notable for being only the second tournament where Mew2King beat Armada, the other being SKTAR 3.

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.
