2GGT is a Super Smash Bros. for Wii U tournament series held on a monthly/bi-monthly basis, mainly in the South California region. First held in December 2015, it is organized and directed by Champ and the 2GGaming team. Each event is dedicated towards a particular player or a group of players that are flown out to compete. 2GGT is largely praised due to the overall efficiency and quality of the tournaments: despite many of them housing well over 300 entrants, singles, doubles and side events were hosted from start to finish in a single day with no time constraints. It has quickly grown in popularity since its inception, having hosted some of the largest tournaments for Smash 4 of all time.

Trivia
- 2GGT's namesake is a reference to Dragon Ball GT, and as such, its main logo is also inspired by it, and each event typically follows a "[featured player] Saga" nomenclature, much like Dragon Ball's own naming convention for each saga.
- None of the featured players have managed to win their own saga as of yet. This is commonly referred to as the "saga curse". A particularly ironic example is Pink Fresh finishing at 17th place at his own saga but winning KTAR Saga 2 months after. Here is, so far, each player's placement in their own saga:
- Fatality Saga - 7th
- ESAM Saga - 5th
- The False Awakens - 2nd
- EE Saga - 49th
- FOW Saga - 4th
- Fresh Saga - 17th
- Mexico Saga - 4th (Hyuga, the best placing Mexican player)
- KTAR Saga - 2nd (Marss, the best placing player out of everyone who was either from Tristate and/or a former KTAR winner)
- Abadango Saga - 13th
- ZeRo Saga - 4th
