The largest Super Smash Bros. tournament of the next weekend, Wavedash 2022, will take place in Oceanside, California. For the Smash World Tour, there will be a Super Silver Melee and a Silver 4 Ultimate event.
This seaside major will mostly benefit those who go in person, but watchers at home can still anticipate much of high-calibre play. Here is all the information viewers need to know about Wavedash 2022.
Players to watch
At Wavedash, Juan “Hungrybox” DeBiedma has the highest chance of winning Melee Singles. Against Jake “Jmook” DiRado, Joseph “Mang0” Marquez, and John “KoDoRiN” Ko, who will probably fill out the top four seedings, he has a combined 7-0 record for the year. Johnny “S2J” Kim and Kalindi “KJH” Henderson, both of whom have defeated Hungrybox this year, remain possible threats.
In the Melee bracket, Juan “Medz” Garcia stands a good chance of pulling off a few upsets. In contrast to the first part of the year, when he hadn’t competed in any majors, Medz had an impressive run this past weekend at Smash Factor 9, finishing in second place. In the process, he defeated Joey “Lucky” Aldama, S2J, Eduardo “Eddy Mexico” Lucatero Rincón, Justin “Wizzrobe” Hallett, and others.

Even if there are more participants, the Wavedash 2022 Ultimate bracket will not be as competitive as its Melee equivalent. Dylan “ApolloKage” J., the tournament’s top seed, nevertheless may have the opportunity to claim his largest tournament victory of the year.
Spencer “Scend” Garner, ApolloKage’s anticipated semifinal opponent, presents a huge challenge. Although he has defeated Scend in the past, Scend has a 3-1 advantage over him in offline competitions, making Scend the favourite to win their set and perhaps the entire tournament.
