Editing Japan SSBM Rank 2018

{{ArticleIcons|melee=y|competitive=y}}

'''Japan SSBM Rank 2018''' is a [[power rankings|power ranking]] in the vein of [[SSBMRank]] that lists Japan's 50 best ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' players. It was created by [[Smasher:Falpan|Falpan]], one of the point calculators of the previous rankings, and posted on his blog on January 13th, 2019.

The ranking was calculated based on a point system. A Smasher's ranking at a tournament would be awarded points using the following formula:

((800 - (ranking / number of tournament participants) × 800) + top 4 bonus points) × tournament weight

The top 4 bonus points were given as follows:

*1st place: 400 points
*2nd place: 200 points
*3rd place: 80 points
*4th place: 30 points

Tournament weight was determined by the number of top players attending the tournament based on the [[Japan SSBM Rank 2017]]. Exceptions included [[Smasher:SFAT|SFAT]], [[Smasher:Shunsuke|Shunsuke]] and [[Smasher:Sheik|Sheik]] who were all treated as top 10 players.

*Rank 1-10: 9 points
*Rank 11-30: 3 points
*Rank 31-50: 1 point

The total number of points determined the multiplier used for the tournament's weight.

The following tournaments were considered for the ranking:

*[[KSB 2018|KVO × TSB 2018 Smavra DX division]] in Osaka
*[http://challonge.com/crazy_2018 CrazyHand 2018] in Osaka
*[[Battle Gateway]] series in Tokyo
*Kurobura Series in Kanagawa
*[[MasterHand]] series in Osaka
*Shulla-bra series in Fukuoka
*Chubu Convention series
*[https://challonge.com/nva3otta Hirosuma Rev. 2] in Hiroshima
*Hokkaido Convention (HST series)
*Amaterasu series in Tokyo
*Liquid Crystal Melee series in Tokyo

Smashers who participated in at least three tournaments were considered for the ranking.

A Smasher's top 5 point scores would be added together to determine their point total, which was then compared to that of other Smashers. In the case that a player had less than 5 point scores, the formula: total × 5 / number of participations was used. This point system was used to determine the top 50 and to rank places 11 through 50. The top 10 players were re-ranked based on their results in sets against other top 10 players. The re-ranking was based off of the previous years' rules, but the exact details were not given. The matchup chart below lists the players in order of points gained, while the top 50 ranking shows the new order after re-ranking.
