Alex would be super into farming simulator and enter their eSports league.

OH MY GOD THEY WOULD

I'm just imagining it's all serious, their hands clammy + hella focused on the game, and PC comes in and sees Alex, and then the screen to see what the fuss is about and the screen just fucking looks like this

The gaming mouse was discovered when an Esports player found a dead rodent inside his computer during a tournament, granting him extraordinary aiming abilities. He would be banned from the tournament the following year for trying the same thing with a fox.

The 2020–2022 SSBBRank

Note: This is a previously released article being published here for longevity. This article was written by the Brawl Central community, check us out over on: https://brawlcentral.carrd.co/

The 2018–2019 SSBBrank is closing in on being three years old at this point, and, as such, it seems time for a new one. This ranking was put together by a panel made of members of the modern Brawl Community. This panel consisted of myself (ninja1167), Player-1, Albs, and Streety. The tournaments considered were Return to Subspace 3, CEO Dreamland 2020, Super Smash Con Fall Fest, Super Smash Con 2022, and Apex 2022. Each panelist made a ranking of the players who had gotten top 8 at Apex 2022, Super Smash Con Fall Feset, and CEO Dreamland 2020, top 4 at Return to Subspace 3, and top 16 at Super Smash Con 2022. Afterwards, the final versions were averaged together to form an overall ranking. The panel then voted to break any ties found in the averages (with Pidgezero_one being called in to break a single tie). Then the panel voted to make adjustments to the list as they saw fit, and each change made had a majority vote among panel members. The final rankings are presented here:

Honorable Mentions:

Gardex:

Gardex did not compete in North America at all this season. However, he has been incredibly dominant in Norway, winning Trondelan three years in a row. Since it is hard to accurately judge European vs North American placings, we are giving Gardex an honorable mention for his accomplishments, and hope to see him compete against NA’s best sometime soon.

Kiwi:

Kiwi had a single result this season, where she got 9th at Super Smash Con 2022. However, there’s a little more to this than meets the eye. To get to this 9th place, she had to defeat ADHD, a famous long-time top Brawl player, ranked 4th on the 2018–2019 SSBBrank. This certainly is an impressive win, even if ADHD was playing off that day. While she is an honorable mention here, she certainly has the opportunity to make the next SSBBrank.

Max Power:

After his first tournament this season, Max Power was not exactly someone you would expect to see here on the rankings, getting 17th at Super Smash Con 2022, losing to Pelca and Hoenn. However, at Apex 2022, Max Power would crack top 8, getting 7th and winning the runback vs Pelca. His sheik is certainly someone to watch out for going into the next season.

Top 15:

15. Arch

Arch has attended every Super Smash Con since 2017, and his placings were steadily rising. In 2017, he got 33rd. In 2018, he got 25th, and in 2019, he got 17th. These were not enough to get him onto SSBBrank, but his 2019 placing was a pretty good showing. Then, at his next Super Smash Con, Fall Fest, he would place 5th. His results afterwards would show that he was a contender for one of the best players in the world, getting 13th at Super Smash Con 2022, and, his best result, a 5th place finish at Apex 2022, with a win over Max Power. Through these tournaments Arch has cemented himself as the best Pit player in the world, and has earned a spot here, on the SSBBrank.

14. Vex Kasrani

Vex has been playing King Dedede for a while, and he has shown that the character definitely has potential. He also has an impressive Game and Watch. Vex made it on the SSBBRank for 2018–2019, and continued to do well immediately afterwards, getting 3rd at Return to Subspace 3 with a win over Chia. He has not entered a Brawl tournament since then, but don’t sleep on him! He could make a comeback any time and prove his skill and why he deserves to be on this ranking. His spot may seem a little lower than what it should, considering he has a better win than anyone else in the 11–15 range, but, he only made it to one tournament, which was considered the weakest and did not have much top player depth. His win on Chia helps to propel him to this spot on the ranking, and, with more good results, he can definitely move up, as he certainly can have the skill to.

13. Pelca

Pelca has been playing since 2011, and managed to get a spot on the SSBBRank in 2014, 2017, 2019, and now 2022. Despite some somewhat lackluster showings this year from someone who was ranked 6th in 2019, don’t sleep on him! He managed to get 9th at Super Smash Con 2022, and 5th at Fall Fest. Despite focusing more on Ultimate nowadays, he certainly could bounce back and get top 10 again, and still is a very good Brawl player. These next two years will be a golden opportunity for this Falco main to bounce back.

12. Poyo

Poyo has been playing Brawl since its prime, and has been steadily getting better over the years, from being 9th on the MD/VA pr in 2012, to getting ranked 14th on the SSBBRank for 2018–2019. After coming back from being one of the best Kirby Fighters 2 players in the world, he showed that he is definitely one of the best Meta Knights in the world, getting 5th at Apex this year, with a win over Pelca. He also may be the best Kirby player in the world, and used him to defeat Pelca at Apex. He is certainly a player to watch out for, and if he keeps going up he can make a great case for top 10 this upcoming season.

11. Hinkage

Hinkage is someone who has been playing Brawl for a long time. He made his SSBBrank debut in 2017 at 16th, and dropped down to 19th in 2019. However, despite only attending one of the considered tournaments, he has achieved his best placement yet. At CEO Dreamland 2020, Hinkage would take victories over Luigisama, MVD, and Zenan to achieve 4th place, losing only to Gunnermaniac and his brother Mikeray4. Hinkage has not attended an offline national since 2020, and this does hinder him somewhat, but he certainly has potential to crack into that top 10 someday.

10. Kyoz

Not only was Kyoz a very early attendee to Brawl tournaments, but he is also recognizable as a top player in Super Smash Flash 2, the best in the world for a time. It should come as no surprise that a skilled and experienced player like him has made Top 10 in his SSBBRank debut after going hard on the Brawl netplay grind. Kyoz’ electrifying Zero Suit play has earned him a winning record this season over Pelca, Arch, and ADHD, with top 8 placements at SSC Fall Fest, Super Smash Con 2022, and Apex 2022. Keep watching to see what he will bring to the table in the upcoming season.

9. Liquid|Chia

Chia’s enthusiasm for Brawl shines through as she continues to place consistently high at the events she enters. She boasts a positive winning record over Kyoz, placing 4th at Return to Subspace 3, 7th at CEO Dreamland 2020, and outplacing her Super Smash Con 2022 seed with an impressive 7th place. As a R.O.B. loyalist, she is the highest-placing member of this ranking to strictly main a character widely considered mid-tier, an accomplishment further decorated by a jump all the way up to 9th place after being an honorable mention in the 2018–2019 ranking. A longtime pillar of the Brawl community, Chia continues to be a formidable contender in tournaments to this day, proving that she and her character are not to be underestimated.

8. Zenan

A player to watch out for, Zenan has proved that his Falco and R.O.B. both deserve to be ranked on this year’s SSBBRank. He started out the season with a great run at CEO Dreamland 2020, getting 5th place and double eliminating Chia, losing only to Hinkage and Player-1. Zenan wouldn’t attend another offline tournament for a while, but he did play others on netplay during this time. His next tournament would be the last of the season, Apex, where he would have a very impressive run, picking up wins over Poyo and Kyoz, for an impressive 4th place. He had a quite impressive season, and, don’t be surprised to see him succeed even more next season.

7. Gunnermaniac

Gunnermaniac’s skillful mastery of Pikachu has skyrocketed him from 15th place to 7th place since the 2018–2019 SSBBRank. He earned an impressive 3rd place at CEO Dreamland 2020 and 5th place at Super Smash Con 2022, with a winning record over Kyoz and Hinkage. Gunnermaniac has consistently placed highly in tournaments during his tenure in the Brawl community, and he doesn’t seem to be slowing down anytime soon. Keep your eyes peeled to see what he’ll accomplish at future tournaments — and if you can’t wait that long, catch him at one of the many Brawl Central netplay tournaments!

6. Mikeray4

Coming right off the highest ranking of his career, 8th on the 2018–2019 SSBBrank, Mikeray4 came out swinging to prove that he is the best Snake in the America, getting 2nd place at CEO Dreamland 2020, with wins over Figy, TheReflexWonder, Hinkage, and Gunnermaniac, losing only to Player-1. Unfortunately, after this, offline tournaments would shut down in America, and Mikeray4 has not been able to attend an offline tournament since they came back, due to unfortunate circumstances. However, his impressive run at CEO Dreamland was enough to earn him a top 6 national ranking for the first time in his career, and, if he ever is able to make it to another offline tournament, we’ll see this Snake main in action and he can once again prove why he deserves his spot here.

5. Liquid|Dabuz

We all know of Dabuz as the famous Ultimate player, but, at the last three Super Smash Cons, he has entered Brawl as well. He was a top player back in the day, being ranked 20th on the 2014 SSBBrank, and now, the King of New York is back. He got 3rd at Super Smash Con Fall Fest, and 4th at Super Smash Con 2022, with wins on Kiwi, Arch, Pelca, and Gunnermaniac. The world’s best solo Olimar shows why the character is so high on the tier list, and shows that yes, he’s still got it. Dabuz is higher ranked in Brawl than Ultimate, and is only the second solo Olimar ever to be ranked top 5, the only other being Nietono, in 2011 and 2012. Dabuz has showed how good his character is, but more importantly, how good he is, even after all these years

4. Hoenn

Hoenn was a netplay grinder, and then he decided to go to Super Smash Con 2022 this year. He was given the 14th seed, a pretty good seed. He would then go on to get 5th at the tournament, beating multiple good players including SSBBrawler, Max Power, and upsets over Kiwi and Chia. This was a very impressive showing, but Hoenn didn’t stop there. A few months later, he went to Apex 2022. Here he had the most impressive run of his Brawl career, with wins over Kyoz, Arch, Zenan, and finally, an impressive game 5 victory over 686M in Losers Finals to get 2nd place, losing only to Cody. He is the only person in the world to have a winning record over 686M this season, and was the only person to eliminate 686M from a tournament. For these impressive accomplishments, Hoenn has made his debut SSBBrank appearance in the top 4, and he isn’t stopping yet. Be on the lookout for what he can do in the next season.

3. Player-1

Player-1 has been a top 10 player for many years, being ranked 8th on the 2016–2017 SSBBrank, and 7th on the 2018–2019 SSBBrank. Almost immediately after being ranked 7th, Player-1 went to CEO Dreamland 2020. Here he would defeat Gunnermaniac, Zenan and Mikeray4 twice to win the event without dropping a set. Over a year later, he would go to Super Smash Con Fall Fest, and picked up wins on Pelca, Kyoz, and Dabuz, only losing to 686M, and would achieve 2nd place. At SSC the following year, he would again show why he deserves to be at this spot, defeating Pelca, Dabuz, and Hoenn twice to get 3rd place, losing only to Cody. As he’s only lost to people above him, and has beat the 5 people directly below him, he comes out of the season with an impressive top 3 ranking.

2. Cody

Cody was ranked 3rd on the 2018–2019 SSBBrank. As such, it is no surprise to see him here, in the top 3 once again. His results speak for themselves. He has not lost to anyone other than 686M, with wins on Chia, Gunnermaniac, Hoenn, and Player-1. He also, despite having a losing record vs 686M, is the only person other than Hoenn to beat him at all. He got 2nd place at Return to Subspace 3, where he beat 686M in Winners Finals but lost in grands. He also got 2nd place at Super Smash Con 2022, again losing only to 686M. These two results alone would be enough to show that he is a top 2 player in the world, but he wasn’t finished yet. Later that year, Cody would go to Apex 2022, where he would beat 686M in winners finals for the first time since Return to Subspace 3, and go on to win the event, eliminating Hoenn in grand finals, even winning a game with Toon Link. Do I need to say much more? Cody deserves this spot on his ranking, and with 686M stepping back from Brawl a bit, Cody may be primed to take that number 1 spot.

1. 686M

What more is there to say about 686M? Of the four tournaments he attended, he won three of them, and never placed below top 3. He only ever lost three sets, twice to Cody, and once to Hoenn, and beat everyone else he played, every time, including Player-1 and Dabuz. He did not drop a single set between Winners Finals at Return to Subspace 3, and Winners Finals at Apex 2022, a span of over two and a half years. For all this, he has achieved being the best Brawl player in the world, and, even if he doesn’t attend as much in the future, he will always have this on his resume, he will always have had a span of three years where he was the best player in the world.

Do you think Vash would enjoy a tournament? Like a horseshoe tournament or something equally as fun but relaxed, maybe playing on a team, maybe as a weekend getaway with you as his date?

(I’m going to a small town tournament near my hometown this weekend, so I’ve got it on the brain and I wanted to know your thoughts!)

If I’m being totally honest, I can’t see Vash competing in anything. Like he’s the least competitive person I can think of and anything he wins at it’s because he just naturally outclasses people that hard. Even when he’s inting (intentionally throwing/being bad) at stuff, he’s still really good and it makes things kind of not fun in very lowkey settings. Maybe if he could get away with running around and being a dork the whole time, like a dodgeball tournament or something.

But he’d go to something with me if I wanted to. Probably an ice skating tournament for national teams or something like that since I love love love figure skating. It’s something we’ve done together on more than a few dates, just for fun. Plus, we have an excuse to huddle up and snuggle close pretty much the entire time in the rink as we watch cuz it’s just cold. And he likes how into it I get cuz figure skating is just one of those magical things to me that I deeply enjoy between the physical prowess it requires and the theatrics of it all.

We talk between each other about the routines and outfits, who we’re maybe rooting for. Go out for food and stuff during show breaks. It’d just be a good lowkey time.

mayhaps. JUST MAYHAPS. i will send the link to the twitch channel for the tournament im gonna be in on saturday. im not sure how many of the strive matches theyre gonna be streaming but its! gonna be some of them! so. we'll see

[bookbinderbitch]

A zombie apocalypse like The Walking Dead, where at some point it becomes less about fighting the zombies, and more about fighting other humans. One person who quickly becomes the community's main strategist, but can't shoot for shit.

Everyone is wondering how this happened, because they assume they're former military or SOMETHING, but they're relatively young, and also where did you train??

One meeting they just produce the most genius strategy the other people in the war-room (as they call it) have ever heard and they just can't take it anymore. "Dude, what the hell did you do before all of this??"

The person just kind of blushes and is like

"Professional CS:GO player. My team won the Cologne tournament 3 years in a row."

[foxfyre3]

bro I'm hosting an online tournament for work and this kid gets knocked out first and I can see through discord integration that he immediately boots up farming simulator 22 to cool off when he leaves

[ephemeral-winter]

something i fundamentally don't understand about esports twitch etc is that i still don't understand the audience at all. maybe i just spent too much time at a formative age being ignored by a boy i liked while he played mario kart but it is literally like watching paint dry. to me

[infinitepeacocktheorem]

dreamt that a person i knew from two of my classes had a tumblr blog. in the dream, they got really mad when i asked them about it.
