Let's Go! was a national Super Smash Bros. tournament hosted by the SSB64 League. It was held from April 28th to April 30th, 2017 in Baltimore, Maryland. The tournament featured singles, doubles, a low tier bracket, draft crews, and a "YOLO" bracket. It was the first major tournament to utilize a waterfall bracket structure in singles, which has since become standard for major Smash 64 tournaments. Alvin, a top Smash 64 player from Peru, was flown out to the event. The team behind The 64 Story came out to the event to record a mini documentary of the tournament.
