Melee CPU Tournament
Twitch Stream - https://twitch.tv/spvlabs
Section List - https://pastebin.com/dg4kmNkp


Section Winners:
Section 1 - Level 9 Green Yoshi
Section 2 - Level 8 Blue Bowser
Section 3 - Level 9 Yellow Mario
Section 4 - Level 9 Green Donkey Kong
Section 5 - Level 9 Blue Zelda
Section 6 - Level 9 Green Ganondorf
Section 7 - Level 8 Pink Luigi
Section 8 -



During the coming months, I will be conducting a large-scale CPU tournament in Melee and streaming it on Twitch. I am aware that CPU tournaments have been held in the past, but I have not found one this thorough.

The 1,062 entrants of the tournament will be all combinations of characters, costumes, and levels. I have divided this list into 67 sections (66 sections with 16 entrants and one section of 6 entrants). Each section will play a single elimination tournament with single game sets. Standard competitive melee tournament rules will be in place (4 stock, 8:00 time limit, tournament legal stages, no items, etc.). A random selection of three of the section winners plus the section 67 winner will then be placed in a play-in for the main tournament. The resulting 64 section champions will then enter a single elimination tournament with standard competitive sets (i.e. best of 5) with the same rules.

Section 4 Champion: Level 9 Green Donkey Kong

The only upset in this round occurred when a level 1 Ness beat a level 2 Kirby. Kirby would swallow Ness and waste time using PK Flash.

Several upsets in this round. A level 7 Ganondorf defeated a level 9 Pikachu. The level 8 Luigi champion defeated level 9 Ice Climbers and Young Link. Most shocking of all however was the defeat of a level 8 Mario by a level 2 Jigglypuff. Mario SD'd 4 times on Final Destination. Truly shocking to watch.
