Bringing Back Smash Bros. -- The Challenge

Not long ago, a challenge was extended to the Smashers here at IGN. A package, containing only a single white glove and a letter, arrived for our very own Mark Ryan Sallee. In it, a rambunctious reader named Cory Maggard invited MRS, myself, and a handful of other IGN Smash fans to take him on in a no-nonsense, no items, Final Destination match to the death.

Given how little time we get to play the game, especially these days, there was no way we could win. So what did we do in response to this unexpected, unwarranted, and unreasonable challenge? We accepted it, of course. Below are the results of this kooky Smash tale. Find out who stole the win in each of the four rounds, and don't forget to let us know how well (read: terrible) we played in the comments section below.

But first, here's a little info on the Smashers who participated in these grueling matches. En guard!

So what did you think of our Smashing shenanigans? Are you still angered by Nick's use of Pit? Want to see more where that came from? Let us know in the comments, and if the response is big enough we may just make the time to bring back the "Bringing Back Smash Bros." series.
