We're BTS, organizers of Smash Summit Spring 2017, AMA!

Posted: 09 Feb 2017 10:33 AM PST

Hello r/smashbros!

I'm Ken (@Hot_Bid) and I'm here with Grace (@graceleecho) to answer your questions about the Smash Summit Spring 2017. Here's a picture of us.

Here are a few of the major changes we're making:

  • There will be more actual melee (roughly 12-13 more serious Bo5s than last time)

  • Instead of straight double elimination bracket, we will be doing a group stage! There will be four GSL style groups where the two winners will advance to the upper bracket and the two losers will be in the loser bracket.

  • The group stage will have a group selection that will be streamed live.

  • We will be letting the community choose a few of the fun events we do

  • There will be mafia!


I'm Ken (aka Hot_Bid). I'm a Falco main and also the creative lead on the Smash Summit Spring 2017. In the past, I've worked on StarCraft and Dota events as well as with TeamLiquid.

Grace works as a project manager / smash mom on all the Summits so far. She'll also be here to answer questions like which player can't eat spicy food and who she's yelled at the most.

We'll be here until 3:00 PM PST. The compendium launches Friday at 1PM!

Edit: Thanks for all your questions!! We may still answer some of them but this AMA is officially done. Check out our compendium tomorrow!!

Also, not making it to BEAST, timing didn't work out for me.

Hope it's a sick event. Next big tourney for me will be Smash Summit 4.

Convince me not to use your main!

Posted: 09 Feb 2017 06:54 PM PST

I saw something similar to this on another subreddit and thought that it would work wonderfully for Smash, so here it is! Basically, do as the title says and do your best to convince me (and others) not to use your main.
