DCSS #2 was held on September 20th, 2003, immediately after a major microburst storm that left a large portion of the eastern seaboard flooded or without power. Despite these problems, the tournament venue had power and 42 players attended the event, including members of Deadly Alliance that came down from New York for the event. DCSS #2 added a doubles competition, which continued in east coast tradition by being 5 stock and having team attack turned off. Like the previous DCSS event, players were only allowed one character for the tournaments, although they could have a different character for teams and singles.

H2YL and DA split the top four singles spots at this event, with Azen taking first place with Captain Falcon and winning an XBox. Wes took second place with Samus, winning a 13inch color television while his teammate Kamaal took third place using Luigi and won a new wavebird. ChuDat took fourth place using the Ice Climbers under some controversy over the use of Sudden Death to resolve a tie in a semi-final match against {{sm|Wes}}. In teams, Azen and Anden took first place, with ChuDat and Jtanic taking second.

This second installment was well-received by the Smash community, with much more space than the previous DCSS event and more stations to play on. There was also a provided lunch, sponsored by the church and a local band that came to play for the competitors before the finals. There were also a series of B-prizes given away, such as an award for the lowest-finishing Pokémon character user and a prize for the first person to stand up on a chair. The announcement of these b-prizes kept the crowd laughing and added to the laid back atmosphere of the event.
