Smash Summit was a national Super Smash Bros. Melee invitational tournament held in Los Angeles, California from November 5th-8th, 2015 by Beyond the Summit, an eSports company known for their Dota 2 coverage. Singles, doubles and side events for Melee were hosted. It was an invitational tournament, where 10 of the world's top players were invited to participate, along with 6 players who were selected from a player donation poll organized by Start.gg. The tournament was held at the Summit gaming house, a private residence, and so was not open to the general public. ContentsPlayers[edit]The following players were invited to the Smash Summit by the BtS team: Players voted in[edit]The following players were invited to the Smash Summit through player voting donations. Players eliminated[edit]From a selection of roughly 40 players, 20 of them were voted in by fans to engage in an elimination round where, by a certain date, if a player did not receive enough votes, they were eliminated and thus did not receive an invitation from Smash Summit. In later rounds, the players who received the most votes were invited in addition to the eliminations. These players were eliminated in the voting phase: These players were eliminated in the nomination phase:
Declined players[edit]Some players, though either invited to the Summit directly or nominated for the Player Voting rounds, declined their offers due to unavailability. Players like Professor Pro, aMSa, and Abate declined nominations for the voting round. Hungrybox was the only player who declined direct invitation due to work conflict pre-voting. After the voting, it was revealed that Leffen could not attend due to the same Visa issues that prevented him from attending The Big House 5. As a result, the Summit Staff replaced him with who they deemed the next best player in the world, Shroomed, who was eliminated in Round 5 of the voting round. Results[edit]Singles[edit](16 entrants)
