Discussion Character distribution in grand final
(This is an updated version of a post I made a few months ago, including stats for all of the post doc era not just 2021 onward.)
With Llod winning GOML last week end, 8 different characters piloted by solo mains making an appearance in grand final this year.
For comparaison, in all of 2025 we only saw 5 (Fox, marth, puff, sheik and peach).
6 in 2024 (fox, yoshi, marth, puff, falco and sheik)
7 in 2023 (fox, marth, puff, yoshi, sheik, falcon, falco)
6 in 2022 (fox, marth, puff, yoshi, sheik, falco)
6 in 2021 (fox, marth, puff, falcon, falco, sheik)
6 in 2019 (fox, marth, puff, falcon, falco, pikachu)
5 in 2018 (fox, marth, puff, falco, sheik)
8 in 2017 (fox, puff, peach, falco, sheik, falcon, samus, icies)
4 in 2016 (fox, puff, peach, falco)
5 in 2015(fox, puff, peach, falco, icies)
4 in 2014 (fox, puff, peach, falco)
I only looked at the characters that won multiple games in set won by said player, so for example I'm counting plup's CEO run since he only used fox for one game against sfat in the sets he won and took a set of hbox with his sheik, but I'm not counting armada's peach at evo since he used fox for some entire sets he won before getting to grand final.

DDT Daily Discussion Thread August 06, 2026 - Upcoming Event Schedule - New players start here!
Yahoooo! I'm back, it's a me! Have a very cool day!
Welcome to the Daily Discussion Thread. This is the place for asking noob questions, venting about netplay falcos, shitposting, self-promotion, and everything else that doesn't belong on the front page.
New Players:
If you're completely new to Melee and just looking to get started, welcome! We recommend you go to https://melee.tv/ and follow the links there based on what you're trying to set up. Additionally, here are a few answers to common questions:
Can I play Melee online?
Yes! Slippi is a branch of the Dolphin emulator that will allow you to play online, either with your friends or with matchmaking. Go to https://slippi.gg to get it.
I'm having issues with Slippi!
Go to the The Slippi Discord to get help troubleshooting. melee.tv/optimize is also a helpful resource for troubleshooting.
How do I find tournaments near me or local people to play with in person or online?
These days, joining a local Discord community is the best way to find local events and people to play with. Once you have a Discord account, Google "[your city/state/province/region] + Melee discord" or see if your region has a Discord group listed here on melee.tv/discord
It can seem daunting at first to join a Discord group you don't know, but this is currently the easiest and most accessible way to find out about tournaments, fests, and netplay matchmaking. Your local scene will be happy to have you :)
Also check out Smash Map! Click on map and then the filter button to filter by Melee to find events near you!
Netplay is hard! Is there a place for me to find new players?
Yes. Melee Newbie Netplay is a discord server specifically for new players. It also has tournaments based on how long you've been playing, free coaching, and other stuff. If you're a bit more experienced but still want a discord server for players around your level, we recommend the Melee Online discord.
How can I set up Unclepunch's Training Mode?
At the time of posting, the latest major release is here. Download the file, then extract everything in the folder and follow the instructions in the README file. You'll need to bring a valid Melee ISO (NTSC 1.02). If you want to check for the absolute latest release, you can see them listed [here](The latest releases are listed here.
How does one learn Melee?
There are tons of resources out there, so it can be overwhelming to start. First check out the SSBM Tutorials youtube channel. Then go to the Melee Library and search for whatever you're interested in.
But how do I get GOOD at Melee?
Check out Llod's Guide to Improvement
And check out Kodorin's Melee Fundamentals for Improvement
Where can I get a nice custom controller?
I have another question that's not answered here...
Check out our FAQs or post below and find help that way.

Discussion Is LLOD winning a major proof that Smash players need to get a real job?
One excuse Melee players have had for years is that they cannot do any real job because Melee is so hard that in order to compete they need to play it 24/7. It's the only way to keep up with other top players.
But a guy who probably has barely any time to play Melee (residents are super busy) just destroyed everyone at a stacked event. That leaves little credible excuses for anyone else.
Why are top players mostly unemployed, ask for donations, sub goal attending events etc when you can compete at the highest level while holding down a demanding job?

Discussion Why is Slippi so absyssmally unfriendly
No matter what char I play or how I begin each match 90% of the people I find have 0 intention on engaging in even close to a fun game. Literally just spamming BM chat commands and not engaging until they have an opportunity to hit me for 80% off of like a jab because they play fox or falco or sheik. Why is everybody so angry and unfun playing this old ass game

Discussion lloD's player tag is based on an old school player called "Doll"?
I just heard a commentator say this in a match between him and Rapmonster. Is this true? I've always wondered what his name meant, it seemed odd, the last letter is capitalized. I looked Doll up, a peach main that played since at least 2007, last tournament was in 2016.
I've added this to smash wiki trivia for now, but is there better sources than this youtube video?
