The project

Yggdrasil is Yggame's Super Smash Bros. Ultimate tournament, named after the world tree dear to the association. Launched in Montpellier in November 2023, it brings together seasoned players and newcomers for a day of competition in a friendly atmosphere.

A first edition fully booked in six days

For Yggdrasil #1, on 18 November 2023, all 64 places were gone six days after the announcement, and a waiting list had to be opened. The tournament notably welcomed Quenini, billed as the best Terry player in France, and ended with a win for Kajouuuu. Seeding, ruleset and disputes were handled beforehand on Discord, and the day was streamed live on Twitch, with a second open-cast stream on HerSSBU's channel.

From #1 to #3.5

In 2024, three editions followed: Yggdrasil #2, then #3, and finally an intermediate edition, #3.5. For the latter, Yggame handled player registration, bracket building and refereeing, as well as the capture and live broadcast of the final stages.
