'''Apex 2015''' was the sixth edition of the {{b|Apex|tournament series}} [[tournament]] series, a fighting game tournament held annually in New Jersey, which took place on January 30th-February 1st, 2015, at the Garden State Convention Center. Like previous tournaments of the series, Apex 2015 hosted a variety of fighting games, including singles and doubles events for ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'', ''[[Melee]]'', ''[[Brawl]]'', and {{forwiiu}}. It currently stands as [[List of largest Smash tournaments|one of the largest Smash Bros. tournaments]] to date, with 1,037 entrants for ''Melee'' and 837 for ''Smash 4'', previously holding the record for both until [[EVO 2015]].

Apex 2015 was officially sponsored by [[Nintendo]] of America<ref>[https://twitter.com/apex_series/status/553614352641970176]</ref>. Among the results of this sponsorship were a lounge where attendees could play a demo version of ''[[inkipedia:Splatoon|Splatoon]]'';<ref>[https://twitter.com/NintendoAmerica/status/560221460208164864]</ref> additionally, Nintendo and {{s|wikipedia|ScrewAttack}} provided a second livestream for the last day of the tournament designed to be clearer for newcomers to competitive ''Smash''.<ref>[https://twitter.com/StutteringCraig/status/560250478182027264]</ref> An apparent side effect of the partnership was the absence of ''[[Project M]]'' from the tournament's lineup of games after its debut at [[Apex 2014]].

==Tournament summary==
Despite being nearly cancelled entirely at the last minute, Apex 2015 has become well known for its multitude of storylines, particularly in ''Melee'', where it is viewed as one of the most important tournaments in the game's history.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jMdDKfFHE1U|title=Apex 2015 documentary (by turndownforwalt)}}</ref> This was also the first major tournament to hold a bracket for {{forwiiu}}.

In ''Melee'', {{Sm|PPMD}}, despite being relatively inactive in the Melee tournament scene over the previous months, was able to defeat {{Sm|Leffen}} in winners' finals and {{Sm|Armada}} in grand finals to take the Melee tournament for the second year in a row. Leffen also became the first player to defeat all of the [[Five Gods]] after beating {{Sm|Mew2King}} 2-1 in winners' quarters. {{Sm|aMSa}} managed to place 5th in the tournament using Yoshi, defeating {{Sm|Fly Amanita}}, {{Sm|Zhu}}, {{Sm|Lucky}}, {{Sm|SFAT}}, and {{Sm|KirbyKaze}}, before being eliminated by {{Sm|Mang0}} in losers' quarters in a 2-3 set. {{Sm|Hax}} was notably disqualified from Melee singles after not showing at the venue due to a combination of hand pain and insomnia.

The tournament is also known for its Salty Suite, widely regarded as one of the most entertaining side events in competitive ''Smash'' history. During the Salty Suite, [[Leffen vs. Chillin (Apex 2015)|Leffen defeated Chillin 5-0]] (with the loser being prohibited from using Fox's default color costume in tournament matches), the set was the source many popular Internet memes, including "My B." Afterwards, Mang0 challenged Leffen to a $1,000 match if they faced each other in bracket; the two eventually fought in winners' semis, which Leffen won 3-1. 

===Salty Suite===
The Salty Suite was run by [[VGBootCamp]] during the after hours of Saturday, and featured various money matches and other exhibition sets.

'''*'''Eikelmann was a replacement for {{Sm|Kage}}, who had become very ill prior to the tournament.

===Controversies surrounding the venue===
While the Apex series already had a reputation of hosting subpar tournaments, this year was particularly disastrous. When the setup crew first entered the original venue, the Clarion Hotel Empire Meadowlands Hotel, they immediately noticed the entire ballroom and hotel was run down to a hazardous degree. Said hazards include delapidated floors and walls, whole sections draped off with debris around the area, and an intense aroma of mold and mildew. Many on the site were already anticipating that the tournament would be canceled.

Apex was plunged into further chaos in late January 2015, as head TO {{Sm|Alex Strife}} became surrounded in controversy following numerous allegations of abuse and harassment<ref>[http://www.reddit.com/r/smashbros/comments/2t1b0e/the_truth_about_apex_tournament_host_alex_strife/]</ref><ref>[http://www.reddit.com/r/smashbros/comments/2t1r1w/its_time_for_me_to_share_my_side_of_the_alex/]</ref><ref>[http://www.reddit.com/r/smashbros/comments/2t1cq1/the_truth_about_alex_strife_part_2_nyani_edition/]</ref><ref>[http://www.reddit.com/r/smashbros/comments/2t1oj0/well_today_is_differentlets_talk_apex/]</ref>, and evidence of extremely unprofessional behavior in business with [[CLASH Tournaments]] and other members of Team Apex. Alex Strife stepped down as the TO of Apex, which proceeded without him.

The day before the tournament was set to start, the nearby parking garage collapsed. Now without a dedicated place to park, attendees were forced to spread out all across the city for a place to park. This caused complaints by locals of the attendees disrupting daily affairs and parking in illegal spots out of necessity.

On the first day of the tournament at 8:50 a.m, the fire alarm was triggered. Witnesses have claimed a person in the hotel supposedly hung a towel on their sprinkler system and caused the sprinklers to go off, which was later backed up by the discovery of the room where the incident occured being flooded. When the local fire martial arrived, he gave an executive order that everyone needs to vacate the premisis immediately due to unsafe conditions. Now without a venue and a potential cancellation on the horizon, every organizer and staff member spends the next several hours trying to come up with a solution. They managed to get into contact with the Garden State Convention Center, a venue roughly forty miles south-west of the original venue that was willing to take them on such short notice. [[Twitch]] would also help this transition by paying the convention center a majority of their bill. Attendees and bystanding volunteers all helped carry the equipment to the new venue, and the tournament officially began the next day with no major issues.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jMdDKfFHE1U|title=Apex 2015 documentary (by turndownforwalt)}}</ref>
