Smash Island

Smash Island is an ongoing online tournament series, founded by Dark Ermac, and has featured some of the largest tournaments for Super Smash Flash 2.

Reddit era
Smash Island began as a one-shot Reddit tournament for the original Super Smash Bros. held on November 23rd, 2013. The tournament saw only 11 entrants to a lack of a decent online scene for the game at the time, which resulted in the discontinuation of the series. In July of 2014, Smash Island was revived as an all-inclusive online tournament. Smash Island II and III held events for Super Smash Bros. Melee and Project M, though the participation was still rather limited. Smash Island III, which took place in early August, was originally slated to have a side-tournament for Super Smash Flash 2, but it was cancelled due to issues with the game's online mode at the time.

McLeodGaming era
For the fourth Smash Island tournament, the Super Smash Flash 2 side event was brought back. Due to a general indifference for the game on Reddit, Dark Ermac turned to the McLeodGaming Forums for potential entrants. This resulted in the SSF2 event greatly overshadowing the other events. For all subsequent tournaments, SSF2 was treated as the main event, with all other games being relegated to side events. By the end of the year, all of the other side events were dropped, and Smash Island officially became exclusively a SSF2 event. It has since hosted tournaments on a monthly basis.

The largest event to date is Smash Island XIII, with 46 entrants.
