The Fall 2019 PGRU lists the best smashers for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. Although the season officially started on July 13th, 2019, the tournaments that qualified were not announced due to the previous power rankings being unreleased at that time. The season ended on December 15th, 2019.

Methodology

PGRU v2 marks the first time invitationals are counted, however it has been noted that players still need to participate in a certain amount of tournaments in order to qualify. The international multiplier returns, this time also including PGR-ranked players, and, each player counts as 2 points for continental tournaments, or 2.5 points for international tournaments. Finally, the B-tier threshold had been lowered to 600 points, or 300 entrants.

They were unranked between each other, and as such are all considered to be effectively ranked #51.

Zinoto — — Trivia This is the first PGR list where there are more international players than American players: Americans take up 24 spots, and international players - split between Japan (20), Mexico (2), Canada (2), France (1), and the Netherlands (1) - have a total of 26 spots. The list garnered controversy over the placements of several players, such as Leffen, Goblin, and Dark Wizzy, as well as a notable increase in Japanese representation on the list. The list has since spawned a few memes, including "losing points for beating Tweek" and Dark Wizzy's placement.
