Voting for the six other players will be announced by Beyond the Summit at a later date and will take place through Smash.gg, one of the largest online tournament-organizing platforms in the world.

Smash Summit's crowd-funded prize pool makes it one of the most lucrative Meleetournaments in existence. The first Smash Summit in November 2015 still holds the title for the highest prize pool in Meleehistory at almost $33,000.
