What to Expect at Genesis X

This article was written by the Brawl Central community, check us out over on: https://brawlcentral.carrd.co/

Genesis X has arrived, and for the first time since 2011 is featuring Brawl! At 71 entrants, this is the largest non-Super Smash Con tournament since Apex 2015. Despite multiple top 8 seeds dqing, this remains a fairly stacked tournament, currently sitting at B tier on the 2024 SSBBRank TTS. With multiple top 10 players, old names, and one of Brawl’s newest rising stars, this is a tournament you sure don’t want to miss.

The Top 8 Seeds

8. SuperGirlKels

SuperGirlKels played Brawl back in 2014, most notably placing 25th at SKTAR 3, however, she returned to the game just last year, and competed at Super Smash Con 2023. At this tournament, she would end up placing 25th, taking wins over Cabbage72, Montblanc, and Wefflez. Playing Sonic and Kirby, she could end up making a run at this tournament, so keep an eye on her as she makes her way through bracket.

7. Kylo

Kylo has been playing Brawl since August of 2023. August of 2023. That means he’s only been playing for 6 months. Yet in these 6 months, this Meta Knight main has shown a massive improvement, going from just starting the game, to taking a game off of Cody’s Marth in an online tournament. He has online wins on RekRP and Strawberrow, and is looking to prove that his online skill is for real. With Genesis X, he is making his offline Brawl debut, and if all goes well, we may be seeing the beginning of a new top Brawl player.

6. FEAR

FEAR is a Zero Suit Samus main from Florida, who consistently enters Brawl brackets at tournaments he attends, and consistently shows his skill. His best result was definitely his 7th place finish at Super Smash Con Fall Fest, but he also has reached 9th at CEO Dreamland 2020, 17th at Super Smash Con 2022, and 25th at Super Smash Con 2023. He’s consistently been on that edge of the top, and maybe this tournament will be the one where he shows that he belongs at the top level of Brawl.

5. Fino

Fino had an electric run at The Return 12, an online tournament shortly before Super Smash Con 2023, where he defeated ninja1167 (me), Kyoz, Gunnermaniac, and Mikeray4 in Winners Finals before losing to Mikeray twice in grands. At Smash Con, he seemed to be on track to continue this, defeating Kiwi and taking Cody to game 3, until he lost to Iota for 17th. Despite this, don’t underestimate Fino’s skill level. His Olimar is the real deal, and I would not be surprised at all to see him in top 4 or even top 3 of this tournament.

4. Ish

Ish is a Wolf main. And there are multiple nowadays who will tell you that Wolf is broken. Despite this not really being the case, Ish’s run at Super Smash Con showed what his character could do. He brought Gunnermaniac to game 3 (in a really hard matchup for Wolf), and defeated Hb2, Tori, and rank #20 Max Power to reach top 16, where he forfeited vs Lux to end at 13th place. Ish is poised to make another impressive performance here at Genesis, and if he gains momentum here, what is stopping him from doing the same thing in just a couple weeks at Sweet Spot 8.

3. Lux

At Super Smash Con 2023, Lux reached 7th place, defeating both Pelca and Dabuz with Ice Climbers before falling to 686M’s monstrous loser’s run, and he ended up being ranked 9th on the 2023 SSBBRank. Despite only being the third seed, there’s no doubt he has what it takes to win this tournament. Ice Climbers can beat anyone, all it takes is 3 grabs. Or maybe we will see him matchup check with Mario, laser with Falco, or win with Meta Knight, who knows! Whatever character he may throw out, there’s no denying it will put up a fight, and if he can replicate his Smash Con (or Sweet Spot 7) success, grand finals could easily be in sight for Lux.

2. Chia

Chia mains R.O.B, and R.O.B is a mid tier. That much is obvious. However, despite playing a mid tier, Chia has found great success, with wins over Zenan and Gunnermaniac on the way to a 3rd place at The Big House 11, or a win on Kyoz on the way to 9th at Super Smash Con 2023. R.O.B’s greatest strength is that he does well vs Ice Climbers, but he struggles vs Meta Knight. Chia has both of these in her path, with Kylo in Winners Quarters and Lux in Winners Semis. If Chia can pull this out, make an upset, and win the event, this would be the best event win by a R.O.B, ever, in the entire 16 year history of Brawl.

1. Player-1

Player-1 has been ranked #3 in the world for two years in a row now. The world’s best Diddy Kong has been on that edge for so long, only ever losing to Cody and 686M. However, with neither in attendance here at Genesis, Player-1 has a bracket prime for the taking (and remarkably similar to Sweet Spot 7, a tournament he won last year). He is the clear favorite to win the event, and has shown no signs in the last 4 years that he will lose to anyone in attendance. If he starts the year out with a bang, maybe he can continue that momentum into Sweet Spot 8 and take out one of his demons, 686M.

Despite not following the 30 Days rule, I actually made it. This may sound narcissistic but wow! I’m proud of myself. And to show just a teeny bit of love for the ships that I actually do care about apart from the usual Nile Dawk pairings I always draw...that feeling is just fantastic!
