Shine 2023 is an ongoing Super Smash Bros. Melee major and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate superregional held in Worcester, Massachusetts, from August 25th-27th, 2023. This will be the final tournament in the Shine series.
Tournament summary
Super Smash Bros. Melee
At 682 entrants, this is the largest Melee Shine tournament since Shine 2018. It is also one of the largest Shine events for Melee in terms of top talent, with 6 of the most recent ranking's top 10 in attendance. In addition, Mango was scheduled to compete in Melee singles, but was late to the airport and missed his flight.[1] Given that Mango missed his flight and Hungrybox (the other remaining God in active competition) was on vacation, this tournament marks the first Melee major with none of the Five Gods since MLG New York 2005 in February 2006, over 17 years prior.
Super Smash Bros. Ultimate
Despite being the final Shine tournament, this marks the smallest Shine tournament for the most-recent Smash game, with the entrants count not even cracking 400 entrants. The number of top talent attending the event was also noticeably smaller than previous iterations: with Tweek's dropout due to Tera the following week, only 3 of the most recent ranking's top 50 players were in attendance.
The #4 seed, Jakal, was eliminated at 9th place, losing to #5 seed Aaron and #17 seed DM, with the latter being an upset factor of 5.
Light, in winning Ultimate singles, broke the fabled "Shine Curse" and became the first (and only) player from New England to win a Shine tournament
