Based out of Maryland and Virginia, Team Arlington is one of the largest true crews in competitive Smash.
Team Arlington was created at a local tournament when KM brought some of his newly-trained friends (such as Project Pat) to a local tournament in Maryland. Since, the crew has grown like a family of rabbits, dominating the MD/VA local tournament scene.
TA encourages playing Smash for the love of the game, rather than for pride or money. Their mantra is one of brotherhood and friendship, as well as regional pride. The crew shares territory with Team Ben, who represents the "mainstream" aspect of competitive smash, where TA represents the "underground" side. The two crews get along, but share a sort of friendly rivalry. Team Arlington has many MD/VA vets, such as KM, g-regulate, Aho, chinesahh, and Kirbstir.
In June, the crew hosted a national tournament (the second in a series named after TA's equivilant of a gang sign) *Pound* 2. There, players are encouraged to take the "TA Challenge," where a competitor must beat every member of the crew. Taken from this challenge, the roster is listed below:
