Additional Blogs And Sites

Melee It On Me is one of the premier blogs of the Smash Bros. scene. It focuses on the scene of Super Smash Bros. Melee more so than any of its franchise counterparts. Its staff is a mix of high profile players, event organizers, and commentators that guarantees well produced content.

/r/SmashBros, while just a forum, is one of the largest centers for discussion of competitive Smash Bros. that includes all games of its series (64, Melee, Brawl, Smash WiiU, and the modded version of Brawl called Project: M). Any breaking news or information about Smash Bros. can and will be found on this subreddit. Though its a forum, Reddit has become a famous social platform for being a news source of any kind.

Liquipedia is a branch of Team Liquid’s main site that gives extensive information of the Smash Bros. scene. It includes the sponsors, their respective players, and former players. The site also provides brief entries for the figureheads of the community, albeit, lacking examples of their impact.

Smashboards used to be a central place for discussion about competitive smash before Facebook groups and Reddit eclipsed it, but it still remains to be one of the common go-to sites. The main page features a variety of articles, guides, news, and videos on a wide range of topics.

GoldPer10 is another site that features write-ups about Smash Bros., but if a reader curious the site offers articles about other competitive games such as League of Legends, Counter-Strike: GO, and StarCraft II. Though Goldper10 is a relatively new site, newer still with its inclusion of Smash Bros. under its repertoire of eSports articles, it allows for users to submit their own content with respective pay, depending on how well the submitted work does.

TheDailyDot does not have a sole focus on the Smash scene or gaming, but for anyone interested in the all-around aspect of eSports along with heated issues that arise from it, their section on eSports is a good place to start.
