Alex Strife is a tournament director from The Bronx, New York. He is responsible for creating the New York City Weeklies in 2007. These helped gather the NYC locals for training, and help to create a consistent social atmosphere. He has also created his own series of tournaments called Zenith, which not only ranged from being locals to being nationals, but attracted big names from the Tristate, and were all successful Melee tournaments.
Alex Strife is most known for being the director of the Apex tournament series, the most prominent and influential recurring Smash tournament series that has attracted much competition from all over the world.
In January, 2015, following numerous allegations of abuse and harrassment[1][2][3][4], and evidence of extremely unprofessional behavior in business with CLASH Tournaments and other members of Team Apex, Alex Strife stepped down as the TO of Apex 2015, which proceeded without him.[5] The incidents have stained Alex Strife's reputation within the community.
