{{Title|Maryland/Virginia}}'''Maryland/Virginia''', abbreviated as '''MD/VA''', is a ''Smash'' region located on the East Coast of the United States. The term includes the U.S. states of {{iw|wikipedia|Maryland}} and {{iw|wikipedia|Virginia}}, as well as the {{iw|wikipedia|District of Columbia}}; some definitions include the states of {{iw|wikipedia|Delaware}} and {{iw|wikipedia|West Virginia}} (although these states both have very small ''Smash'' communities). While most of the region's activity is centered on the {{iw|wikipedia|Washington-Baltimore metropolitan area}}, which straddles the border between the two states, other centers of activity exist in Richmond and other parts of southern Virginia. Neighboring regions include the [[Tristate Area]] (particularly the Philadelphia metro area), North Carolina, and Pittsburgh/Northeast Ohio.

MD/VA has long been one of the busiest and most important ''Smash'' regions in the United States. As the home of {{Sm|Azen}}, {{Sm|ChuDat}}, {{Sm|Chillin}}, and more of ''Melee''{{'}}s most famous old school players, the region was considered one of the strongest in the pre-''Brawl'' era, frequently competing with the [[Tristate Area]] and [[Southern California]]. Crews like [[Ha Ha You Lose]], [[Power Underwhelming]], and [[Team Ben]] hosted many large tournaments, such as {{b|Game Over|tournament}} and [[BOMB 4]], that were among the most important grassroots events nationwide, helping to significantly develop the ''Melee'' tournament scene. After ''Brawl'''s release, as players like Azen became inactive in the community, MD/VA lost of much of its strength relative to the other regions, but was still famous as the home of the {{b|Pound|tournament series}} series, one of the most important national tournament series of the era. The region's national presence further declined following the failure of [[Pound V]] and the collapse of the series. However, it regained its foothold on the national stage with the introduction of the [[Super Smash Con]] series in 2015, as well as [[Pound 2016|the return of Pound]] and the beginning of the {{Trn|Glitch|series}} series in 2016; this has given MD/VA the distinction as one of the few regions with more than one supermajor per year. Maryland/Virginia also hosts [[Xanadu]], one of the most famous weekly locals series in the nation, and is the home of [[VGBootCamp]], the largest ''Smash''-dedicated streaming channel. In 2023, the newly opened esports tournament venue District E began hosting The Hill, a monthly SSBU tournament series that quickly became one of DC's top monthly series. District E was also the home of [[Hungrybox]]'s live Coinbox event in late 2023, Coinbox IRL.
