[AslingMusic]

I find it interesting that it is so difficult to find a post or an article with information like this, Its an interesting from a statistical stand point and when It's on paper like this is shows how far Smash has come so far as a community in such a short amount of time. I chose a few fairly well known tournament series' as they will be most relevant to any one given viewer.

(Quick side note, I apologize for the odd spacing, It's out of my control)
