The '''Jack Garden Tournament''' was a tournament held by {{Sm|Captain Jack}} in Kyoto, [[Japan]], on August 20th, 2005. At around 116 entrants it is quite possibly the largest ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' tournament ever held in Japan, and is also the only ''Melee'' [[List of major tournaments#Super Smash Bros. Melee|supermajor or major]] that Japan has ever held. It featured several international players, hailing from the United States, Canada, and Australia. | The '''Jack Garden Tournament''' was a tournament held by {{Sm|Captain Jack}} in Kyoto, [[Japan]], on August 20th, 2005.

The event gained recognition following the performance of {{Sm|Bombsoldier}}, a Japanese {{SSBM|Falco}} player, who nearly defeated {{Sm|Ken}} in Grand Finals, and for its crew battle, where the Japanese team consisting of {{Sm|Aniki}}, Bombsoldier, and {{Sm|Mikael}} beat the American team, composed of Ken, {{Sm|Isai}}, and {{Sm|UnknownForce}}. The event revealed the strength of the Japanese scene at the time, as Isai was notably 4-stocked in tourney; in friendlies, Ken was beaten by Aniki, a Japanese {{SSBM|Link}} player who does not utilize [[wavedashing]]. | The event gained recognition following the performance of {{Sm|Bombsoldier}}, a Japanese {{SSBM|Falco}} player, who nearly defeated {{Sm|Ken}} in Grand Finals, and for its crew battle, where the Japanese team consisting of {{Sm|Aniki}}, Bombsoldier, and {{Sm|Mikael}} beat the American team, composed of Ken, {{Sm|Isai}}, and {{Sm|UnknownForce}}.
