The '''Smash Panel Power Rankings''' is a list that ranks the top 25 Melee players from the United States. It was originally posted by [[Hyugaricdeau]], [[Marcus]], [[Wife]], [[KishPrime]], [[Eddie]], [[HugS]], [[dcx1287]] and [[chillindude829]].  Though it is the closest thing to national rankings the Smash community has ever had, the panel was disbanded after receiving backlash in the community. These are slightly updated, mostly from the latest results of the Pound 4 tournament recently held.

These are the current rankings:
The '''Smash Panel Power Rankings''' was a [[power ranking]] that listed the top 25 ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' players in the United States. It was compiled in 2006 by [[Smasher:Dr. Z|Hyugaricdeau]], {{sm|Marcus|p=Illinois}}, {{sm|Wife}}, {{sm|KishPrime}}, {{sm|Eddie}}, {{sm|HugS}}, {{sm|dcx1287}}, and {{sm|Chillin}}. The rankings were updated over the course of the year, but it was later discontinued, leaving the ''Melee'' community without a national American power ranking or any other similarly scoped ranking for many years. The idea to rank the absolute best players in competitive ''Melee'' was later revived with the [[SSBPD]], as well as the [[SSBMRank]] in 2013, albeit as a worldwide ranking. [[RetroSSBMRank]] would also later emerge to retroactively rank the ten best ''Melee'' players in the world each year from 2003 up to 2012, the last year before SSBMRank introduced a community accepted worldwide ranking.

The following is the second-to-last ranking compiled by this panel. All previous rankings are lost to time, as the [[SmashBoards]] forum threads they took place on are now deleted, and the panelists' discussion of the rankings also occurred in now lost private forums, with no known archives.
