It was a free-to-enter tournament with $5k in the prize pool for the Melee and Ultimate parts.
Most of the fighting esports events are online now - for well-known reasons. On the one hand, it’s a bummer to not have a possibility to gather in one place with like-minded people. On the other hand, it’s a chance to celebrate how the Internet and favourite fighting games connect people.
Get On My Line 2020 was one of such online tournaments. Of course, it isn’t a full alternative to EVO, but GOML could gather 3251 attendees for its both parts:
- GOML Super Smash Bros. Melle that took place on July 18-19. The winner is Edgard “n0ne” Sheleby from UYU;
- GOML Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, on July 25-26. The winner is Gavin “Tweek” Dempsey from Team SoloMid.
Both parts of the event were free for the participants, and still, they had prize pools - $2.5k each.
The SSBU tournament consists of Pool Waves (day 1) and the final competition (day 2).
The Pool day was a chance to meet all sorts of players - from beginners to glorious professionals. Here is the full stream of these matches:
