RetroSSBMRank
RetroSSBMRank is a power ranking created by Smash History creators Edwin Budding and Pikachu942. The original versions of the lists were posted on Bignokh and were later revised on Google Docs; the latter is what is documented on this page. It aims to rank the top 10 players of each year retrospectively, prior to the release of the first SSBMRank in 2013.
