TheMidwest is aSmash region located in the United States. It is by far the largestSmash region in the United States in terms of land area, encompassing fourteen different states. Due to this, the region has sometimes been split into four additional regions:Great Lakes East, which includes Kentucky, Ohio, and west Pennsylvania, primarily the Pittsburgh metropolitan area, and sometimes includesWest Virginia;Great Lakes West, which includes Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, and Wisconsin;Heartland North, which includes Minnesota, North Dakota, and South Dakota; andHeartland South, which includes Iowa, Nebraska, and northern Kansas and Missouri, primarily the Greater St. Louis and Kansas City metropolitan areas. Tournament activity in the Midwest is the most active in the Chicago and Detroit metropolitan areas, although many other metropolitan areas also have notable scenes, such as Cleveland, Madison, Pittsburgh, and Kansas City.
Historically, the Midwest was a strong yet relatively secluded region. DuringMelee's Golden Age, the Midwest had several notable players includingDarkrain,Drephen, andVidjogamer, and several tournament series such as the long-runningShow Me Your Moves series; however, the scene's overall size was less than the sizes of the other major AmericanSmash scenes at that time. This changed around the early 2010s with the rise ofThe Big House series in Michigan, which eventually becameMelee's premier end-of-the-year supermajor. In addition, many other large tournament series began as the decade progressed, includingFrostbite in Michigan,Midwest Mayhem in Illinois, andSmash 'N' Splash in Illinois and Wisconsin, and many FGC events such asCombo Breaker andFrosty Faustings in Illinois began seeing greater entrants count for theirSmash events, all the while many more Midwest players began making their mark on competitive play, such asGinger,KJH,Lunchables,Ned, andZinoto. At its peak, the Midwest's tournament activity rivaled some of the biggest regions in the United States.
Following theCOVID-19 pandemic, however, the Midwest's impact on the competitive scene diminished, in part due to the conclusion or hiatus of many big tournament series such as Frostbite, The Big House, and Smash 'N' Splash;Riptide was the only major tournament series active during this time, and even then several of its iteration were smaller than the aforemtnioned pre-pandemic series. As such, the Midwest scene inUltimate infamously failed to hold a single major betweenThe Big House 10 in October 2022 andRiptide 2024 in September 2024, a stark contrast to the game's first year, when the Midwest held three supermajors. Nevertheless, the Midwest retained a slew of strong talent that have made strong impacts in their respective titles, includingApolloKage,Onin, andOssify.
