'''Apex 2022''' is an ongoing ''Super Smash Bros.'' tournament that features every game in the series. It is the 8th tournament in the {{Trn|Apex}} series and the first tournament in the series since {{Trn|Apex 2016}} six years ago.

Although previous Apex tournament organizers have discussed about a new iteration of Apex, nothing came out of it until March 2020, where it was announced that Apex would return on November 20th-22nd, be run by {{Team|VGBootCamp}}, and be a Gold-tier stop on the [[Smash World Tour 2020]]. However the [[COVID-19 pandemic]] postponed the tournament, and it was pushed back to 2022, where it became a Gold-tier stop and final main event on the [[Smash World Tour 2022]]. Additional events include the return of the Salty Suite as well as a ''[[wikipedia:Multiversus|Multiversus]]'' event.

==Salty Suite==
There were four Salty Suite matches: {{Sm|Zamu}} vs. {{Sm|bobby big ballz}}, {{Sm|Rishi}} vs. {{Sm|Junebug}} 3v3 mid-tier [[ironman]], {{Sm|Zain}} vs. {{Sm|moky}} reverse mains, and {{Sm|Hungrybox}} vs. {{Sm|iBDW}}. All sets are first to 5 (except for the 3v3), and players could not pick the last stage they have won on during a set.

Hungrybox brought a number of props to use for his match: a carton of mango juice (which Hungrybox and then iBDW consumed), mangoes, a can of salt (which Hungrybox spread onto the stage floor), candy (which Hungrybox consumed), and a party popper (which Hungrybox pulled out mid-game then fired following the last game). iBDW slammed a folding chair into the stage following his victory. Hungrybox did the same, except it slid off the stage and near the crowd, leading to {{Sm|GimR}} subsequently confiscating the chair.

==Trivia==
*This tournament marks the first time {{Sm|Axe}} has defeated {{Sm|Zain}} in the post-quarantine era of ''Melee'' singles, doing so with a 3-0.
*This is the first ''Brawl'' tournament {{Sm|686M}} has lost since {{Trn|Super Smash Con 2019}}, which was three years prior.
*{{Sm|WarriorKnight}}'s final placement of 49th in ''Melee'' singles marks the best placement of a Bowser player at a modern ''Melee'' major.
*{{Sm|aMSa}}'s victory in ''Melee'' singles with {{SSBM|Yoshi}} (which followed his win at {{Trn|The Big House 10}} over a month prior) gave him the distinction of being the only ''Melee'' mid-tier player to win a major tournament more than once.
