Notices
The Skill parameter has been removed from Smasher infoboxes, and in its place are the new "Best historical ranking" and "Best tournament result" parameters. SmashWiki needs help adding these new parameters to Smasher infoboxes, refer to the guidelines here for what should be included in these new parameters.
When adding results to Smasher pages, include each tournament's entrant number in addition to the player's placement, and use the {{Trn}} template with the matching game specified. Please also fix old results on Smasher pages that do not abide to this standard. Refer to our Smasher article guidelines to see how results tables should be formatted.

The Super Smash Bros. Invitational 2018 was an invitational tournament held by Nintendo at E3 2018, that took place on the night of June 12th, 2018. The tournament was announced on March 22nd, 2018 via Nintendo's YouTube channel. Much like Super Smash Bros. Melee and Super Smash Bros. 4, the upcoming Super Smash Bros. Ultimate was showcased prior to its release at this tournament. The tournament was held following the conclusion of the Splatoon 2 World Championship.

Players

According to Nintendo's E3 website and a post from their What's New blog, top players from across the globe will be participating. A few people who are "dressed as their favorite Nintendo character" and other invited guests[1] will be able to play on-stage in exhibitions.

Trivia

  • The logo featured on Nintendo's E3 website is unusually titled "logo FINAL?" in the browser tab title.
    • This could be related to the fact that Super Smash Bros. is stated to be the game’s tentative title.
    • This could also be related to the fact that in standard business practice companies tend to save files with names based on their progress. "FINAL?" could simply mean it was saved as the logo itself could have undergone further editing.
  • ZeRo is the only invited player to be returning from the first Invitational, which he won.
