Riptide is an ongoing supermajor for Super Smash Bros. Melee and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, held in Sandusky, Ohio from September 10th-12th, 2021. In addition to Super Smash Bros., the event is also running tournaments for Rivals of Aether and Splatoon 2.

The event was originally intended to be held from September 11th-13th, 2020, but due to the COVID-19 pandemic, it was delayed to the current date.[1] A Project+ event was also planned, but was removed after the team receiving a cease and desist from Nintendo.[2]

Trivia

  • Less than 4 hours after the tournament's announcement, the tournament reached its entrants cap,[5] locking out several notable players including HugS[6], varun[7], and Switch.[8] The speed at which the entrants cap was reached has since spawned a few jokes in the community. The registration from Riptide reopened on June 4th, 2021, with Super Smash Bros. Ultimate entrant cap increasing to 768, Super Smash Bros. Melee increasing to 512, and Project+ increasing to 256 entrants.[9]
    • MkLeo would have missed registration for the event if not for Hungrybox contacting him prior to it filling its cap.[10][11]
  • This tournament is the first offline tournament to have 1,000 entrants in a singles event since Frostbite 2020.
  • This tournament marks the worst placement for a number of players in an Ultimate tournament:
    • Marss, with a placement of 33rd.
    • Kola, with a placement of 65th.
    • Sonido, with a placement of 129th.
  • yonni placed 9th in Ultimate, tying the highest solo Steve placement at a national with Jake at InfinityCON Tally 2021.
