Combo Breaker (87 Singles Entrants) – 5/23/2015, Chicago, IL
Combo Breaker attendees were treated to some of the best production value of any venue in recent memory outside of EVO. Although Smash 4 had a leg up overall in number of entrants, the hype still belonged to Melee on Championship Sunday. Team Tristate successfully invaded the Midwest, with DJ Nintendo taking an intense two-set Grand Finals over Duck, who has now gotten 2nd at back-to-back regionals. TheMoon finished in 3rd place after a stunning comeback vs Frootloop in winners and a loss to Duck in losers. Dart placed 4th with bracket wins over Vro and Frootloop, while Darkrain placed 5th in his effort to defend his tourney title. Juggleguy and Vro rounded out the top 8.

UM Biweekly 8 (85 Singles Entrants) – 5/20/2015, Ann Arbor, Michigan
The mistitled UM Biweeklies (it’s technically a weekly) have returned to Ann Arbor for the summer! In our first installment, which was entirely best of 3 and had venue and entry costs of $1, we had a whopping 85 entrants show up!

JST 7 (60 Singles Entrants) – 5/23/2015, Rosmalen, the Netherlands
JST 7 was the first 2-day tournament that has taken place in the Netherlands for many years. There were 60 Melee singles entrants from mostly the Netherlands, Germany and the UK, including Ice, Amsah, VwS. Professor Pro and LLL.Jeapie. Most of the Dutch top players were missing at this event, which gave the subtop a chance to put themselves in the picture. The biggest surprise in Melee singles was $tijn, a Dutch fox player who keeps improving, beating fellow Dutchman Jim Morrison before losing to Jeapie in losers quarters. In losers semis, Jeapie came extremely close to knockout Prof. Pro, being 2 stocks ahead with a 2-1 lead in games. Prof managed to come back though and then convincingly take game 5 aswell. Amsah managed to take 1 game from Ice in winners finals, but got 3-0’d in grand finals. In teams though Amsah and Ice teamed together, but lost the grand finals to Professor Pro and Jeapie.

JST 7 (50 Singles Entrants) – 5/23/2015, Rosmalen, the Netherlands
JST 7 was the first JST edition that also featured Smash for WiiU. There were 50 Smash 4 singles entrants from mostly the Netherlands, Germany and the UK, including Mr. R, S1-14, LOM | J.Miller, IxisNaugus, Yikarur and Kunai Kazekun. Unlike the Melee event, most of the Dutch top players did attend and combined with the strong foreign showing, made a very stacked final bracket. A big surprise in Smash 4 singles was WLG | TraX, a player from Luxembourg, formerly known as Desti when he played Brawl. He got 5th in singles and in teams 4th together with WLG | otek. A highly anticipated match this tournament was Beast 5 winner LOM.J.Miller. J.Miller lost winners semis 3-2 to IxisNaugus though, another UK player. S1-14 beat him in losers semis and also beats Ixis 3-0 in losers finals, despite having lost to him in losers quarters. LLL.Mr.R. takes the tournament as exptected, only having lost 2 matched in winners finals versus Ixis. Also the teams tournament is won by him with kaak, over Anaky & IxisNaugus and S1-14 & PikaForLife.

JST 7 (35 Singles Entrants) – 5/23/2015, Rosmalen, the Netherlands
PM was the smallest singles event at JST 7 with 35 entrants. It did feature LLL.Mr.R who won every PM tournament he ever attended, but also VwS.Professor Pro who had 2 close sets with Armada just 2 weeks earlier. This was a very highly anticipated match, but something happened no-one saw coming. Luigi player WLG | otek from Luxembourg came to show he was no pushover. Despite being unseeded , he had a very impressive tournament run. After beating Link player Trinity92 (also from Luxembourg, who beat Jeapie the round before), he pulled a big upset by beating Amsah 3-1 in winners quarters and beating Mr.R by the same numbers in winners semis. After losing to Professor Pro in winners semis, otek had to play Mr.R again in losers finals and beat him 3-2 in a really close set. Losers finals and grand finals proved to be equally exciting, taking a full 15 games, since otek managed to reset the bracket in grand finals. The 2nd set also went to the last stock of the last game, which VwS. Professor Pro managed to take.
Singles Results
1. VwS.Professor Pro
2. WLG | otek
