Highest placements of a character at a major/supermajor tournament. Major definition going off what the wiki defines as a major.
A character is listed here under the following criteria:
- The character was used successfully in at least two sets, with the character being used to win more than one game per set.
For major winners, the following criteria applies:
- The character was used successfully in more than three sets outside of pools, with the character being used to win at least two games per set.
- The character was used successfully in more than four sets outside of pools, with the character winning at least two games in two of the sets and one game in two other sets.
For example, MkLeo's performance at Smash World Tour 2021 Championships counts as a major win for Pyra and Mythra. Although he only used the characters to win two full sets, he also used the characters to win one game in winning sets against three other players, and as such it falls under the second criteria. Conversely, Armada's Young Link is not counted for any of Young Link's performances, as he was only used to win one set in each major.
There will be a few exceptions to this rule, which will be listed in their respective sections. Invitationals are not listed unless it was a player/character's first major win.
Super Smash Bros.
This is talking about solo placements which is somewhat rare for Smash 64 specifically. This is also counting supermajors such as Apex and Super Smash Con.
