Spring 2019 PGRU
Period active	February 1st - July 7th, 2019
Region	Global
Game(s) supported	Super Smash Bros. Ultimate
Producer(s)	Panda Global

The Spring 2019 PGRU lists the best smashers for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, starting on February 1st, 2019 with Sumabato SP 2 and GENESIS 6 and ending on July 7th, 2019 with Albion 4, The Pinnacle 2019, and BigWinChampionship 2.

Methodology

The power ranking was formulated similarly to Super Smash Bros. for Wii U's Panda Global Rankings with a few alterations. First, an international multiplier was added, giving tournaments outside of the United States 1.25. This addition allowed more international events to be ranked on the TTS, and gave international players a better chance to make the final list.

In addition, there were no points for players on previous PGR rankings as tournament values were based solely on entrant numbers, leading to some events being undervalued or outright unranked due to not meeting the proper entrants count. On the other hand, as a compromise outplacements were factored into the ranking, as well as wins over players who would've been in the 51-100 range had the ranking gone up to that placement.

Area 51

Hours before they began unveiling the regular top 50 rankings, PGStats released a list of players who most closely missed the cut for the Spring 2019 PGRU top 50, known as "Area 51." They were unranked between each other, and as such are all considered to be effectively ranked #51.
