Community Spotlight Volume 3: Smash Week!

We’re back with another Community Spotlight! It’s a smaller community in the broadcasting world, but with Nintendo’s upcoming Smash 4 title being so close to release, Super Smash Bros. fever has never been higher. We think it’s a great idea to shine a light on some of the phenomenal Smash broadcasters who have been putting out great work in this community to engage and entertain viewers. From the tireless dedication of broadcasters who cover entire tournaments, to the interactive teaching streams that help newcomers get a handle on some of Smash’s more complex mechanics, to the friendly and fun household broadcasts that just show friends who love the game, we have some of the best of all those worlds represented in this week’s spotlight.

Kicking off right now is Adam “Armada” Lindgren, one of the best Melee and Project: M players in history and a passionate and interactive broadcaster. Following close behind is the current EVO champion: Joseph “Mango” Marquez.
