Now, I'll add results to tournaments posted, but I'm relying on you guys to help find them for me.

If you know of any tournaments where Charizard was used, please share them with us.

However, for data's sake, there are some guidelines.

For each tournament you wish to share please:

1. A link to the bracket
2. The characters used by said player
3. The amount of entrants
4. The placing of the Charizard player
5. Video if possible
6. Most importantly a name



Alright everyone, let's get some hard proof just Charizard is valid. Let's find those results.​

 

[Knee Smasher]

I have won nine tournaments, once in 2 VS. 2, and eight times in 1 VS. 1. I used Charizard at least twice in eight of those tournaments, including the 2 VS. 2. Chronologically, they are:

1. http://challonge.com/SmashTourneyMegaUltimate - there were six entrants. I was 1337Champion, and I used Charizard in every match. The scores in that tournament were entered incorrectly - I actually won twice against each of my opponents and never lost a single match in the whole tournament.

2. http://challonge.com/smash4posthalloween - there were eight entrants. I was LLW【天龍神】, and used Charizard in every match.

3. http://challonge.com/ynujfc4t - there were sixteen entrants. I was 天龍神259499240738, and used Charizard in every match. The scores for every set were not shown, but I think I only lost one match in the whole tournament, against poppop 199389430631.

4. http://challonge.com/SmasnBrOSCHsMPIONS - there were eight entrants. I was LLW【天龍神】, and used Charizard in every match with the exception of the final match of the final set, in which I used Bowser.

5. http://challonge.com/wu51z3sz - there were eight entrants. I was 1337Champion, and used Charizard in every match.

6. http://challonge.com/r2tw9a20 - there were ten entrants. I was 1337Champion, and I used Charizard in the first match against QuoteCS, Ganondorf in the second match against QuoteCS, Charizard in the first match against egedalyan, Captain Falcon in the second match against egedalyan, and Captain Falcon in both matches in the final set against Lord Tentacruel.

7. http://challonge.com/5v4e05cu - there were six entrants. I was 1337Champion, and the score of my set against egedalyan was entered incorrectly - I actually won 2-0, not 3-0. In both sets I played for that tournament, I used Charizard in the first match and Captain Falcon in the second match.

8. http://challonge.com/gho3htm5 - a 2 VS. 2 double elimination tournament in which four teams (eight players) entered. I was LLW, partnering with Haru Akenaga. I used Charizard in the first match against Sylvee Chan & Zanryo, Captain Falcon in the second match against Sylvee Chan & Zanryo, Ganondorf in all three matches against Lord Tentacruel & ZinogreVolt, Ganondorf in the first two matches against Jiggly-Hoe & NMAN, and Charizard in the third and final match against Jiggly-Hoe & NMAN. My teammate Haru Akenaga used Shulk in every match.

Also, I did not win the following tournament, but did exceptionally well in it:

http://challonge.com/aetg7v7g - a customs double elimination tournament with 16 entrants. Despite custom moves being allowed in this tournament, I did not use any of such. I used Ganondorf in the first match against QuoteCS and Charizard in the second match against QuoteCS. Then, against AceStarThe3rd, ThePudgyFarfetchd, ThunderSpark and AntwonQ, I used Charizard in the first match and Captain Falcon in the second match. Then I beat egedalyan twice with Charizard, Avaluggage once with Charizard before he forfeited, and then I was in the finals against AceStarThe3rd. I lost the first match of the set with Charizard and the second with Ganondorf, but then I won three matches in a row with Charizard, giving me victory in the finals. In the grand finals, I lost the first match with Captain Falcon, won the second match with Charizard, and then lost two matches with Charizard.

 

[Swamp Sensei]

I will add these in a bit.

 

[-LzR-]

I don't think my 3 2nd to last placements are worth anyone's time so I'll just avoid the embarrassment.

Are you sure? The more data we get the better.

@ Knee Smasher I have updated your data in the OP. Please check for any inaccuracies.


I will try to add my sole tournament (which I got 3rd place! :D) when I get the bracket.


To everyone else, does the current layout look good? Do you feel I am missing anything important?

 

[Knee Smasher]

Yeah, they were all accurate. Thanks for adding them

 

[Ganonballer]

Does it matter if its online or offline? Or maybe it could be mentioned with each placing, whether it was one or the other?

I have a couple online tourneys if i can post them.

 

[Swamp Sensei]

Online is fine.

 

[-LzR-]

In my opinion it's fine to list online results, but if we are gathering some kind of data on Charizard tournament records we should exclude online results from those.

 

[Ganonballer]

Okie dokie. Well I started doing some weeklies online on http://ssbfc.com/index.php and I placed twice so far. Here you goooo.

1.
http://challonge.com/ssbfc_rrs14/standings
Charizard
10 Entrants
3rd Place
No videos
Ganonballer

I got 3rd in this online RR tourney. We do pools (top 2 or 3 out, depending on # of entrants) then brackets. I swept through pools with all wins on this one with only Charizard then ended up with 3rd.

2.
http://challonge.com/ssbfc_rrs12/standings
Charizard/Sheik
10 Entrants
5th Place
No videos
Ganonballer

Another RR tourney but I got 5th this time. I didn't do so hot in this one lol. But i made it to brackets still so i think its worth a mention. I also used Sheik in this one mainly for Sonic and Ness because its tough fighting a few of the fast or small characters with Zard, especially online.

If you think these are worthy that would be cool. Ill post whenever we have some more or if I end up driving to one of the Alabama tournaments Ive been looking at. If I place, ofc.

EDIT: I don't know how my text got smaller at the end. Sorry lol.

 

[SmashRacer]

Just finished my Online EU Tourney. Got 4th out of 16 entrants. I only used Charizard. There was 2 Diddy Kong players. After I lost my first match against the first Diddy player I choose Dragon Rush and Rock Hurl. I won the next 2 matches. The same build for the next Diddy player who switched to Sheik after he won his first match and won the second match. Went Dragon Rush the whole way through. Here's the link to the bracket:

All Charizard except one single match with Villager that I lost anyways.
http://smashfinland.munpalsta.com/index.php?topic=408.msg37715#msg37715

Customs were legal, used Dragon Rush every match.
There is no challonges or Tios because the tournament was ran on paper.

[charizardbro]

Bracket: http://challonge.com/Vertex2015 Sm4sh 3DS. Put together on Smash Ladder.

Character: Charizard for everything

Entrants: "32." We had a bunch of forfeits and a bunch of people who filled in for the forfeiting people in loser's bracket. Final headcount was around 24 I think.

Place: Tied for 6th. Lost in winner's semis then lost again in the loser's bracket right after that.

Video: My games will be uploaded to https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC18dq2MEruadpciBVAUgAXQ/videos within about a week. I'll add an edit with links to my sets when that time comes.

Name: charizardbro

Summary: First round was a forfeit. Second round was against a Dark Pit (2-0). I didn't play my best imo but I made it out ok. Third round I beat a Falcon and Link (2-0). This was by far my best round the whole tourney. I then got rekt by a Ness in Winner's Semis (0-2). And I was finally eliminated by a campy Wii Fit Trainer in Loser's... Quarters? Idk you guys can check the bracket if you want. Was fun. Need MU help desperately though.

Edit: The guy running the tourney lost the replays to the 1.1.0 update. Oh well.

 

[Knee Smasher]

http://challonge.com/smash4Wiiusmogon - A tournament I just won last night. There were eighteen entrants. I was YhwachTheAlmighty, and used Charizard in every match up until I faced Jiggly~hoe, against whom I won the first match with Charizard, lost the second match with Charizard, and then won the third match with Captain Falcon. In the finals against Pakuiui, I won the first match with Charizard. Then, upon seeing that he used Captain Falcon, I challenged him to two Captain Falcon dittos on Omega Port Town for the purpose of making the tournament's finale more epic, with me winning the first and losing the second (the score was entered incorrectly. I actually won the finals set 3-1, not 3-0). After that, I faced him one final time with my Charizard against his Luigi and won, giving me victory in the tournament.

 

[draquaza]

http://vegassmash.challonge.com/ReKT19 this was my first tourney won if you want only top 8 placements i can give you plenty i have been recently been getting top 4 lately the vegas smash scene has started to become stacked lately we even have a 12 year old who can literally hold his own for a bit against our pr at least outside of top 5 one of them being FOW.

 

[Knee Smasher]

http://challonge.com/PSSmashNov14 - A tournament in which I came second several months ago. There were nine entrants. I was YhwachTheAlmighty/Mirajane Strauss, and defeated solarman64 twice with Charizard, before facing GateCreeper, against whom I lost once with Charizard and then won twice, once with Captain Falcon and then again with Charizard. After that, I was in winners finals. I defeated EliwoodEmblem three times with Charizard, before facing him in finals and then grand finals using a combination of Charizard and Captain Falcon, with me losing both of the aforementioned sets 2-3. The following video shows all of my matches in the finals and grand finals of that tournament:

As a testament to how close I came to winning this tournament, I should note that the very last Flare Blitz I performed in the video was actually intended to go over my opponent's head as a method of recovery. However, I accidentally went too low due to inputting my Flare Blitz too late (something which may have been a result of input lag), and unintentionally crashed into my opponent's shield, resulting in me losing the match. I believe that I would have more than likely won that match, and therefore the entire tournament if not for that mistake.

[pacha]

I won this. Nebraska free weekly, 36 man tourney. Not super impressive but it's an accomplishment for me.

My matches start at about 2:30 and I play through to finals. Message me with any tips

 

[vindicator4]

I'm a Zard main from AZ that goes by Vinnie (i'll be using the tag VDubs at EVO).

I've been maining Charizard for a while now so between local weeklies and other tourneys i could post dozens of challonge links, but I'll just include what i consider to be my best result so far.

http://challonge.com/FD7Singles

This is the AZ monthly from March that had 74 entrants where i was able to get 9th.

I was only on stream twice:

This is my win over Austin K. (Wafty). He is a former AZ PR member as Wario, but he went Mac this tournament for giggles.

This is a loss to current AZ PR #3 Apachai, who went on to win the whole thing.

If anyone has any tips for me after watching the matches please share. I'm always looking to get better.

https://smash.gg/tournament/ubc-esports-presents-battle-of-bc/brackets/11944/34414/115863

Battle of BC - Angis - 5th out of 133 (Charizard / Bowser main)

Angis actually sent Anti to losers (3-1) in Battle of BC. Some folks on the smashbros subreddit confirmed he beat Anti (unfortunately off stream). At least one match he won with Charizard, and at least one match Angis won with Bowser. Even though I'm not a Charizard main, I just thought I'd share the love!

 

[Leomupi]

I got 2nd out of 98 people at this Lock-In Tourney: http://challonge.com/Pppssbwiiu1v105162015
I went to a few locals before this and they were random people mostly, but it was still a great experience to make it so far!
