Summer 2017 SSBMRank

The Summer 2017 SSBMRank lists the world's top 50 Super Smash Bros. Melee smashers, as compiled by Melee It On Me. They are being announced in a series of Red Bull eSports articles that will be published from July 7th to 14th, 2017, as a partnership with the Red Bull Smash Gods and Gatekeepers event.

Methods

Over 40 people, such as professional smashers, tournament organizers, community leaders and volunteers, were chosen to be panelists for this edition of SSBMRank. The panelists were asked to rate players based on the following criterion:
Given the quality and quantity of work in the first half of 2017 (from Eden to CEO 2017), if everyone entered 100 tournaments, who on average would place the best?
They voted on a 1-10 scale with the best player receiving a "10" and the worst player receiving a "1". Ballots that were not scaled properly were rescaled using an algorithm. The two lowest and two highest ratings before taking the average were removed in order to reduce the variance.
