Melee in 2010: Year in Review
- Thread starter Juggleguy
- Start date
Good point. I guess I'll change the wording on that line.
You're right, I just completely remembered wrong since M2K/Brood was the most hype set.
Thanks a lot for this, I had a feeling I was missing some previous European tournaments. AZ didn't include RoX4 in his 2007 review and I simply couldn't find Smashboards documentation on the big European events in 2008 or 2009. Updated the OP.Good read. Those reviews always bring hype for the current year
Just a few precisions regarding European tournaments :
SNY gathered 109 attendants for singles, not 100.
In 2007, RoX4 became the first european tournament with more that 100 entrants (132).
In 2008, ESA2 gathered 231 players for singles, making it bigger than Pound 3.
In 2009, two French tournaments had more than 100 attendants for singles : ESA3 (108) and TSL4 (113). I’m also almost sure that Smash Attack in Germany reached the 100 entrants cap, but I don’t know the exact number.

Rob selected the perfect time to write the 2010 Melee in Review because it builds hype for Pound V. Great timing.

GSG and DGDTJ both took place in Concord, CA.
Do I get an honorable mention for pointing out a mistake?

I'm pro at making awesome videos. It Takes Guts to be Amazing is the 7th best user video of 2009 and What do you think about Jigglypuff is this year's 8th best video. XD

2009 sparked my interest in Melee (I used to be all about 64)
2010 made me join Melee. Now I'm practicing to eventually go to tournaments and I no longer play 64.
2010 was freaking awesome for Melee.

No, Juggleguy should have mentioned it. Too many people are praising him without acknowledging that he could have done a significantly better job.

DrPeePee impressed me the most this past year. I was blown away how he ***** M2K the last set at ROM 3, good s**t. And he a good showing at WinterGameFest recently (even though Mango was clearly sandbagging his a** off).

Awesome write up. Melee was pretty ridiculous in 2010. Here's to 2011 being even better.

May 2011 be even better!
Although I wonder what will happen to the melee scene with the rise of P:M? I have a feeling it will only compliment melee.
