Super Smash Bros. Melee pro Juan ‘Hungrybox’ DeBiedma has announced the first $1,000 Smash weekly in 2026.
Arcade Time Knockout (ATKO) is a new local Smash tournament series in Orlando, Florida organised by Hungrybox and Arcade Time USA.
Super Smash Bros. has been struggling the last few years. Many fighting game events have dropped Melee and Ultimate in 2026 due to Nintendo’s delay in granting a license to tournament organisers.
Amidst the ongoing struggle to keep Smash alive, Melee veteran Hungrybox has announced a massive weekly tournament aimed at reviving the passion and dedication of the Smash scene.
