Some of the world's best Super Smash Bros. players and the series' biggest fans are gathering at Super Smash Con Friday through Sunday for some intense tournament action featuring all four SSB games.

Competitive SSB is being broadcast live all weekend from the Dulles Expo Center in Virginia as the top players compete in singles and doubles tournaments on four different Twitch channels. Most of the action will unfold on Tourney Locator's main and secondary channels, while the majority of the finals will be on VGBootCamp's main channel, with Spanish commentary on its second channel.

Aside from the typical single-game tournaments, Super Smash Con is hosting a new, unique tournament in which players must play all four games. It's called the Smash Masters and features four of the best Smash players in the world: Mew2King, Nintendude, Wizzrobe and ESAM.

Most Smash players stick to a single game in the series, so the Smash Masters tournament (starting Friday at 8 p.m. ET) will determine who the best all-around Smash player is.

Throughout the rest of the weekend, players like ZeRo, Mango, Nairo, Plup and Hungrybox, the champion of the Evo 2016 Super Smash Bros. Melee tournament, will duke it out for their chance at glory in their respective games.

For the singles tournaments, the Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 64 quarterfinals start at 5 p.m. ET Saturday, the Melee quarterfinals start at 1 p.m. ET Sunday, the Brawl round of 16 starts at 10 a.m. ET Sunday and the Super Smash Bros. for Wii U quarterfinals cap off the weekend at 5 p.m. ET Sunday.

The full streaming schedule is available to view online at the Super Smash Con website.
