This is it. It’s the end. The top 10 best Shrek SuperSlam players in the world. All of these players have invested a large amount of time into the game, trying their best to achieve the ultimate glory.

#10 – Glacey

The best solo Luna main in the entire top 100, Glacey is the first player to earn the greatest honour of all: “Top 10 Shrek SuperSlam Player”. With truly impressive tournament results, Glacey’s skill was undeniable. Not only did he earn wins over some of the game’s titans — Squeachu, redridingshrek, and TheBoiWhoCriedWolf — but he also had an impressive set of tournament placings, including 1st at Time to Get Shrekt 4.

#9 – scrubjr

Along with RetroGamersGuru, scrubjr was the other player who truly came into their own during the end of the game’s lifetime. However, with less disappointing lows, and impressive performances at the final two tournaments, scrubjr earns their rightful place among the top 10 Shrek SuperSlam players of all time. With wins over Flick, KevinSHREKEROgre, and Murtag, and with strong performances against Sorzan and TheBoiWhoCriedWolf, scrub is yet another player to watch, if a revival of Shrek SuperSlam ever occurs.

#8 – SonicCat

Without a doubt, SonicCat is the most difficult player to rank. The only two tournaments she entered — the second and fifth entries in the Time to Get Shrekt series — ended with a 1st place finish, over players such as Squeachu, sirensarecalling, Glacey, and Sorzan. As a result, it’s impossible to tell what the peak of her skill was. Could she have dethroned the rank #1 player? We believe that’s unlikely, based on the information we have, but she is undeniably a top 10 level player… at least. Unfortunately, due to growing frustration with the prevalence of Gingerbread Man, she quit the scene, without ever entering any of the larger tournaments. One of the unresolved mysteries of Shrek SuperSlam, SonicCat is the ultimate “what-if” story in the history of the game.

#7 – Birdo!

One of the most slept-on players in the scene, Birdo had consistently strong performances from the moment she joined the scene. Starting with a 2nd place at We Shrek Those #5, Birdo impressed the community with her highly technical Fiona play. Perhaps her most impressive performance however was at We Shrek Those #6, where she and TheBoiWhoCriedWolf played several intense back-and-forth sets, unfortunately ending in a close game 5 loss for Birdo in the second set of Grand Finals. However, this was no outlier; Birdo also placed 5th at The End of Shrek SuperSlam, putting up an incredibly strong performance against redridingshrek along the way.

#6 – sirensarecalling

At her very first tournament, Shrekmas, sirens made a statement. After being sent to losers round 2 by ProviderOfSouls, she defeated Flick, Stickyhands, Squeachu, TheBoiWhoCriedWolf, and Rubbermaid, before losing to Provider again in a close game 5 set. She followed this performance up with several other strong placements, including a 2nd place finish at Time to Get Shrekt 5, 1st place at Time to Get Shrekt Finale, and 2nd at Time to Get Shrekt 6. Though she was unfortunately unable to make it to the final 2 tournaments due to prior commitments, her incredible legacy remains.

#5 – BoastingToast

Although kirby was the first person to run tournaments for Shrek SuperSlam, you could argue that it wasn’t truly competitive until BoastingToast joined the scene. Being the first person to put serious effort into the game, Toast’s discoveries helped to advance the metagame at an incredible rate. Not only did he discover the first infinites and optimise punish games, but he was also the first player to fully realise Red Riding Hood’s potential. After dethroning kirby at Slam in the Swamp, he was the undisputed world champion until Absolutely Pissed Off, where the new wave of players unfortunately presented a previously-unseen level of competition. However, as the only person to take a set from ProviderOfSouls, and with his incredible results and impressive gameplay, BoastingToast’s impact on competitive Shrek SuperSlam will never be forgotten.

#4 – TheBoiWhoCriedWolf

Joining the community at We Shrek Those #4, it immediately became apparent that Boi was not going to settle for 3rd place. One of the most ambitious players in the scene, he invested a large amount of time into his Gingerbread Man, ascending to a level of power that many doubted he could reach. And at We Shrek Those #6, he finally achieved his goal, with a strong 1st place performance over Birdo, LadyLiberté, and G1itchy. There’s only one thing left for him to do… become the best in the world. And with an strong 3rd place at The End of Shrek SuperSlam, with a win over redridingshrek, and an impressively close set against Squeachu, it may just happen yet.

#3 – redridingshrek

One of the most respected members of the scene, redridingshrek had humble beginnings. Originally a Black Knight main, redridingshrek placed 5th at Slam in the Swamp, with losses to kirby and Crumpet. Ever loyal to the game, he continued to compete throughout the game’s lifetime, with impressive placements such as 2nd at Absolutely Pissed Off 2, 3rd at Slam Pinnacle, and even remaining relevant at The End of Shrek SuperSlam with a strong 4th place finish. He also created a local scene, being the organiser of the tournament series RååLan Slam, introducing players such as DroQshrex, HumptyTrumpty and pussincoots to the community. Though many things have changed over the course of the scene’s life, one thing has always remained: redridingshrek’s undeniable skill.

#2 – Squeachu

After hearing that Dronkey had untapped potential, but no active players, Squeachu took this as a challenge. After a mediocre debut at Absolutely Pissed Off, Squeachu practiced greatly, immediately becoming a top level threat. This first became obvious at the first Time to Get Shrekt, where his new-found mastery of Dronkey’s infinite caused immeasurable frustration for BoastingToast, earning Squeachu a win in the process. He continued to wreak havoc on the competitive scene with a multitude of high placings and impressive wins, but was unfortunately unable to ever defeat the rank #1 player. But don’t let this mislead you; with his incredible patience and devastating punish game, Squeachu’s mastery of Shrek SuperSlam is truly impressive.

#1 – ProviderOfSouls

The undisputed master of Shrek SuperSlam, ProviderOfSouls showed dominance from the moment he picked up his controller. At his first tournament, Absolutely Pissed Off, he dethroned the long-reigning BoastingToast. He then went on to win several of the largest and most important tournaments, such as Absolutely Pissed Off 2, Slam Pinnacle, and Shrekmas, whilst only dropping a single set (to BoastingToast at Slamtober). And if you were still doubting his skill, he rounded out his career with a victory over Squeachu (the rank #2 player) at The End of Shrek SuperSlam, whilst sandbagging with mid tiers such as Humpty Dumpty and Fiona Ogre. We can only hope that Shrek SuperSlam gets a sequel so that Provider is able to demonstrate his abilities on a larger stage.

So we’re finally down to the top 20. The players from here on out aren’t just good — they are the elite. With high placements at the tournaments they attended, and demonstrating an incredibly high level of skill, these players are some of the most respected in the entire scene.

#20 – Mast3rOfFlavor

Undisputedly the greatest player to debut at The End of Shrek SuperSlam, Mast3rOfFlavor is an experienced Robin Hood main with a consistently deadly punish game. Despite an unfortunate bracket, Mast3r put up a strong fight anyway, defeating asurfingturtle, crashbfan, and dilliam (Bone), before a narrow loss to Flick in a close game 3 set. Though he only finished 9th, perhaps in another world — or even with a different bracket — he could have made it much further. One of the most promising up-and-coming players, the future is bright if Mast3r continues to compete in Season 2.

#19 – Stickyhands

m0th once said that Stickyhands was the sickest Shrek SuperSlam player of all time. And though he retired from the game after Shrekmas, his results over the course of the scene’s life are undeniably great. Perhaps his most iconic performance was at Absolutely Pissed Off 2, where he defeated Jv5_Guy, Sarger, hunterstuff and EIREXE on a monstrous losers’ run, literally ending EIREXE’s career in the process. Though his results dropped off later in the scene’s life, the impact made by this legendary Pinocchio main will never be forgotten.

#18 – EIREXE

Making his debut at Slam in the Swamp, EIREXE immediately established himself as a top contender, defeating Mr. Misfire, Murtag, and Crumpet, and taking games from both kirby and BoastingToast. He remained a strong threat after the scene’s revival, defeating Flick, Lord Ape, and Sorzan to place 3rd at Absolutely Pissed Off behind ProviderOfSouls and BoastingToast. Unfortunately, his career came to a controller-cutting end, when he was upset by Stickyhands to place 4th at Absolutely Pissed Off 2. But make no mistake — EIREXE is one of the all-time greats.

#17 – DroQshrex

Lalzu once asked who said DroQshrex was the Charming GOAT. Well, we’re saying it today. DroQshrex has, without a doubt, the greatest results of any Prince Charming main in Shrek SuperSlam, boasting wins over m0th64, Stickyhands, and RetroGamersGuru. Despite his playstyle mostly revolving around rolls and specials, DroQ is proof that nothing quite beats good fundamentals.

#16 – Lord Ape

The other half of ShrekBoards (along with Lalzu), Lord Ape had incredibly strong placements during his entire slamming career. Starting with a strong 4th place at Heir II the Throne with a win over veteran slammer Murtag, Lord Ape quickly established himself as a strong contender. He followed this up with strong placements at both Absolutely Pissed Off instalments, with wins over Sorzan and Flick and even managing to take redridingshrek to the brink in a close game 5 set. Unfortunately he retired from the scene after a strong 3rd place at the first Time to Get Shrekt, but there’s no doubt that he belongs among the elite.

#15 – m0th64

Originally, Robin Hood was not considered to be a good character. The first tier list that ranked Robin Hood placed him at a middling 10th place, far lower than he is considered to be today. This rise in placement is in no small part due to m0th64, who was the first truly skilled Robin Hood main. A regular contributor on ShrekBoards, m0th helped advance the game’s meta in the early days, whilst also founding the incredibly skilled Georgia scene. There are also rumours that m0th is the legendary Fiona Ogre main LadyLiberté herself, though nobody has been able to confirm this.

#14 – RetroGamersGuru

Towards the end of Shrek SuperSlam’s lifetime, tournament attendance greatly decreased, and tournaments themselves became rarer and rarer. There was arguably no player affected more by this than RetroGamersGuru, who truly came into his own element at the end of the game’s life. Boasting highs such as taking a game off of TheBoiWhoCriedWolf, and going 4-5 in a game against sirensarecalling, Retro proved that he could go toe-to-toe with the game’s greats. Denied the opportunity to play against players in his new skill tier, all we have to go off of are these promising late-era performances, and his disappointing early losses to players such as PartlyAwesome and LoveExpert. Many people theorise Retro could be as skilled as a top 5 player, so if he returns in Season 2, it’s impossible to tell just how far he could go.

#13 – Flick

Perhaps one of the most difficult players to rank, Flick’s constant sandbagging and character switches made it very tough to evaluate his true skill. Despite many disappointing losses over the years, he finally made a splash at the most final two tournaments, including wins over Sorzan, Mast3rOfFlavor, and hunterstuff. Is this because he finally stuck to Luna and Dronkey, two top tier characters? Or did he just finally decide to actually try? Either way, he decisively proved once and for all that he can compete with the top tier players. Maybe, just maybe, you can expect good things from him in the future.

#12 – Sorzan

The humpty god. The low tier hero. No matter what you call him, Sorzan is one of the most exciting Shrek SuperSlam players of all time. Not only is he the highest ranked low tier main, but his main (Humpty Dumpty) is one of the most unique characters in the game. Humpty’s punish game is relatively quite awful, so he depends on his high mobility and mindgames to outplay his opponents. So when you combine this with a flashy, exciting player, it makes for a great combination. Boasting wins over redridingshrek, Glacey, and Rubbermaid, Sorzan proved that he’s one of the greatest players of all time.

#11 – Rubbermaid

The man who killed the muffin man himself, Rubbermaid unfortunately barely falls short of breaking into the top 10. Joining the scene at the small netplay tournament Shrek it Up! Weekly #1, Rubbermaid was the first Gingerbread Man main to truly explore the limits of the character in a post-Crumpet world. With innovations such as rolling to continue combos, and being well-rounded in all aspects of the game, Rubbermaid is truly one of the most skilled Shrek SuperSlam players of all time.

We’re now solidly in the realm of top players. All players after this point proved themselves to be top contenders, capable of highly skilled play.

#30 – Komota

The Puss-in-Boots king himself, Komota is the highest ranked player of the most popular character. Though he only attended a single tournament, Glacey’s offline Shrek SuperSlam side event at NHS Smash #5, his performance there was decisive. Doing what many players ranked below had failed at before, Komota did the impossible — successfully defeating a Luna main that used infinites, not only once, but twice. And though this was early in his career, it’s worth mentioning that this Luna main was Glacey, one of the best Shrek SuperSlam players of all time. Along with this, Komota also demonstrated strong fundamentals and game knowledge. One thing is for certain — he would be a tournament threat if he ever rejoined the competitive scene.

#29 – Jv5_Guy

When just beginning his Shrek SuperSlam career as ProviderOfSouls’ training partner in 2016, Jv5_Guy was but a humble G-Nome main with a secondary Captain Hook. His poor play combined with his terrible TO skills landed him as a meme in everyone’s thoughts. However, when The End of Shrek SuperSlam was announced, Jv5_Guy was prompted to take off the gloves and train hard. With a new mindset and a character swap to Robin Hood, Jv5_Guy proved that he wasn’t bad at games. He said so himself and he will show you undeniable evidence with his wins over not one but TWO randoms in tournament. How many people in this world have accomplished such feats? I rest my case.

#28 – HumptyTrumpty

A consistent attendee of RååLan Slam events until his retirement, HumptyTrumpty’s natural skill is only matched by his hatred for the game. His skilled Robin Hood play earned him the title of 3rd best player in his local scene, behind skilled players such as redridingshrek and DroQshrex. A paragon of consistency, HumptyTrumpty never upset any higher ranked players, but also never lost to players ranked below him. If he ever makes his return to the scene — something that he almost certainly will NOT do — expect his excellent results to continue.

#27 – Lunoz

A strong Luna main in his own right, Lunoz is better known as one of, if not the only, texture modders in the scene. Earning wins over slammers such as Sarger, LoveExpert, and PartlyAwesome, the gradual decline of the scene unfortunately prevented his career from advancing any further, and he did not return for the final two tournaments. But perhaps the most interesting thing about Lunoz is his unique playstyle; instead of focusing on Luna’s anti air infinite, he instead opts to use her often-ignored jab ogrements. A true innovator, watch out for him if he returns in the future.

#26 – Crumpet

One of, if not the strongest player from the Warwick era and inventor of the game’s most important tech, the eponymous Crumpet Dash. Mastery of this advanced strategy allowed Crumpet to easily overwhelm the early Warwick-era players, even during Absolutely Pissed Off 3, a time when the metagame had developed beyond the small community in Warwick. This is in addition to an impressive win at Heir II the Throne, beating Murtag, ZSS and kirby to win the tournament without dropping a set. Crumpet has also showed an impressive record on the international stage, beating redridingshrek during Slam in the Swamp.

#25 – Murtag

While debate rages over the precise definition of the Murtag Drop, there is no question of the skill displayed by this Warwick-era Dronkey main. Only looking at the early Warwick results is a disservice to Murtag, who truly came into his own later in the game’s lifetime, with a strong 4th at Absolutely Pissed Off 3, and wins over Flick and GDRR to take 1st at Shrek SuperSlam at LU. Even during the twilight of the game at The End of Shrek SuperSlam, Murtag displayed technical ability with Luna capable of placing him among the game’s regular competitors.

#24 – hunterstuff

One of the most consistent slammers in the post-Absolutely Pissed Off netplay scene, hunterstuff’s Robin Hood earned few notable wins, but also suffered no unusual losses. He maintained this gatekeeper reputation until Shrekmas, when he retired from the scene. However, he returned for the final two tournaments, levelling up and putting in very respectable performances, including wins over players such as Dzuh and asurfingturtle, and placing 9th at The End of Shrek SuperSlam.

#23 – KevinSHREKEROgre

Perhaps best known for his impassioned speech about the future of the game, Kevin earns his rightful place as the best Shrek main in the world. Inspired by the Shrekboards community, Kevin honed his so-called shrekniques offline, including an optimised punish game, something almost entirely unheard of among community outsiders. After several offline tournaments, Kevin finally made his tournament debut at The Disappearance of Shrek SuperSlam. Though the only player he defeated was Dzuh, his technical ability was undeniable – expect great things in the future from this shreknical master.

#22 – Meerkat

The winner of the largest Shrek SuperSlam tournament of all time, Shrekfest 2018, Meerkat is no slouch. Though the tournament itself was not that stacked — only featuring players that were new to the scene at the time — the sheer size of the tournament raised eyebrows by itself. Several months later, Meerkat made his netplay debut, taking a set from Jv5_Guy and a game from Flick. One thing’s for sure: his win at Shrekfest was no fluke.

#21 – Moke

One of the biggest “what-if” stories in Shrek SuperSlam, the latter days of Moke’s Shrek SuperSlam career are unfortunately very anticlimactic. After a disappointing 0-2 finish at Shrek SuperSlam at LU 1, Moke made a swift switch to Luna after learning her infinite, defeating almost everyone in his path. However, he only got to demonstrate his newly patented “skill combos” at two tournaments, due to him dropping out of Bailrigg to focus on Smash Bros. But if Moke ever stops playing silly party games like Smash, and returns to the swamp, there’s no doubt he could become one of the greatest slammers in history.

And if you’re still not convinced, take a look at the following gif: https://gfycat.com/QualifiedShortIvorybackedwoodswallow

We grow closer and closer to the ultimate honour. These players fought long and hard, earning upsets and high placings along the way. These people… are top 40 in the world at Shrek SuperSlam.

#40 – DJAndrom3da

Despite only joining the community shortly before the final tournament, The End of Shrek SuperSlam, DJAndrom3da has already built an impressive legacy. After being sent to losers by GDRR 2-0, DJAndrom3da managed to best PartlyAwesome, the Shrek master himself. Though his run was ended the next round by a powered-up Jv5_Guy, this Black Knight main has definitely proved himself to be a strong contender.

#39 – PartlyAwesome

He’ll grab you. And do you know what he’ll do next? He’ll throw you. He doesn’t NEED pathetic things like optimal combos to defeat you, because he has transcended beyond us mere mortals. In seriousness, PartlyAwesome is the true backbone of the Shrek SuperSlam community — despite playing for fun, and completely lacking a punish game, he picked up wins over slammers such as RetroGamersGuru, whilst being one of the most wholesome members of the community. Truly a crowd pleaser, PartlyAwesome is THE Shrek to watch in season 2.

#38 – Dan Soup

As the unfortunate victim of Tunes’ monstrous performance at Outrageous Shrek, people often forget just how important Dan Soup was to the Shrek SuperSlam community. Up until his retirement, he was a prominent community member, discovering game-changing tech such as the Soup Grab. He also won all of his local tournaments, including a victory at Soupy Smash 3 over FishEatCorn. As the highest ranked Huff ‘n’ Puff Wolf main on this list, Dan Soup’s impact on the scene will never be forgotten.

#37 – Sarger

Despite often being memed by the community, Sarger’s legacy is no joke. Not only was he a regular competitor in netplay tournaments, Sarger discovered a Cyclops infinite, and was a prominent member of the Anthrax research group, 20MLP. Though he often struggled in tournaments — once coming close to losing to a Level 10 Huff ‘n’ Puff Wolf CPU — his career is not entirely without victories, including a win over Flick at Absolutely Pissed Off 2, a win over Dzuh at Slamtober, and managing to take a game from GDRR at Shrekmas. Now a Cyclops main, perhaps Sarger will be able to place better in Season 2.

#36 – G1itchy

G1itchy has attended nearly every tournament and slam jam hosted by the Georgia community, and his consistent Puss-In-Boots gameplay has carried him to solid placings at nearly every event. His only losses are to players ranked above him, and he has wins on Aniki, Ebola, CttL and others. Expect him to remain a fixture of the offline Georgia scene, and potentially make a splash on netplay if he ever enters an online tournament. Why doesn’t he replace the i with a 1 instead of the L?

#35 – asurfingturtle

An up-and-coming Robin Hood main, asurfingturtle made a statement when he defeated ex-world champion kirby at The End of Shrek SuperSlam. Demonstrating proficiency in the Robin Hood infinite, his only losses were to other established Robin Hood mains, Mast3rOfFlavor and hunterstuff. An important reminder that skilled players can be lurking in the shadows, asurfingturtle surfs all the way to 35th on the Ultimate SlamRank.

#34 – kirby

The true inventor of competitive Shrek SuperSlam, kirby will remain one of the most iconic figures of this community for many years to come. In his prime, there were few players kirby didn’t beat. BoastingToast? Toasted. EIREXE, Crumpet, redridingshrek? Easily dealt with. Unfortunately, post-Red Riding Hood ban, his results dropped off greatly, culminating in a disappointing loss to asurfingturtle at The End of Shrek SuperSlam. Regardless, kirby’s impact on the game extends beyond simply playing it — he is also the premier modder of the scene, managing to successfully mod out random item spawns, among many other things. One thing is for sure — competitive Shrek SuperSlam wouldn’t exist how it does today without kirby.

#33 – LoveExpert

A long time community member, LoveExpert’s long-awaited tournament debut finally came at the netplay event Get Get Quabbled at a Coffee Shop, where he unfortunately placed last. That’s nothing to be ashamed of, however — the competition was fierce, with the other four entrants being the highly skilled slammers Squeachu, Glacey, TheBoiWhoCriedWolf, and Rubbermaid. Despite this, he pressed on, earning a win over PartlyAwesome at Time to Get Shrekt Finale. Either way, LoveExpert’s impact on the scene is undeniable; his skillful play earns him the title of highest ranked Black Knight on this list.

#32 – DeckThalz

Despite never entering a netplay tournament, DeckThalz’s fundamentals-heavy Pinocchio was truly a force to be reckoned with in the Lancaster scene. Despite Flick and Moke’s Lunas being an unsurmountable brick wall, DeckThalz was almost unbeatable by everyone else in his local community. With wins over GDRR, Razmataz, and DrZero11, and a shiny 3rd place at Bailrigg, DeckThalz would have been a huge threat with a little more combo practice.

#31 – GDRR

The highest ranked Anthrax on the SlamRank, GDRR is a testament to how far fundamentals can take you in this game. Optimal Anthrax is a frustratingly difficult character, but GDRR showed us that you don’t need silly things like “an optimal punish game” or “infinite combos” to make it far in Shrek SuperSlam. Boasting wins over scrubjr, Sarger, and PartlyAwesome, and even managing to take a game from TheBoiWhoCriedWolf, this is a unicorn that you DON’T want to mess with.

Now it’s serious. These slammers have earned the prestigious title of “Top 50 Shrek SuperSlam player in the world”. If you ever run into any of these players in bracket, you’re probably going to lose. Probably.

#50 – JF

The 4th best member of the RååLan scene, JF displayed dominance over most of the players he fought. Not only was he the best Fiona main in his scene, he also earned wins over top slammers such as Shrexobert, Happa, and SweetFiona. As with all RååLan Slam attendees, if JF ever makes his netplay debut, expect him to make a splash.

#49 – George

The legendary Cyclops main George played consistently well in the earliest of kirby’s tournaments, including set wins over ZSS in Overstone 1, and kirby in Overstone 2. The switch to Anthrax at Aerial to the Thrown did not work in his favour, but he still placed a respectable third. A lesser-known fact is that all Overstone tournaments were played on George’s copy of the game, making it arguably the origin of the scene itself. George admits he regrets not participating in the scene beyond its early days, and his strong early results prove he could come back with dominance if he so desired.

#48 – RashAttack

An accomplished UK Melee player with strong SuperSlam results in the second Warwick tournament, beating Jai and putting up a strong fight against Andy. However, RashAttack’s crowning moment comes from his impressive Heir III run, placing second in the largest tournament the game had seen until that point, and taking a game in Grand Finals. As the only original Warwick representative at the tournament, RashAttack showed that the early players still have what it takes years later.

#47 – McRad

Though McRad wasn’t part of the scene for very long, the potential this Fiona main demonstrated is undeniable. Boasting highs such as a win over Flick’s then-main Donkey, and demonstrating strong fundamentals during the time she played, it’s hard to say where she’d be if she continued to compete. Unfortunately, after a crushing loss to BoastingToast at the first Time to Get Shrekt, she left the community, never to be seen again. But perhaps, just perhaps, we’ll see her don her trademark Foxy Grandpa hat once more, and make her long-awaited return to the slamming scene.

#46 – Zero Suit Salt

Zero Suit Salt played a strong hand in the early formation of the scene, maintaining the game’s Facebook presence and TOing the invitational supermajor Aerial to the Thrown. This early commitment was born of his desire to see the game flourish, and this was reflected in his strong playing ability. Using Anthrax, ZSS placed consistently well at all Overstone tournaments, taking sets from George and kirby. This success would continue to Heir II the Throne, taking sets from big name players such as Longshore Drift and Lord Ape, as well as another set from kirby. Since then, ZSS has taken a back seat from playing in tournaments, but the wheels he set in motion would ensure the scene he was so passionate for would continue for years to come.

#45 – Tunes

Perhaps one of the most iconic Shrek SuperSlam players of all time, Tunes joined the competitive scene almost as quickly as he left. One day before Outrageous Shrek, he picked up Red Riding Hood and pieced together a strategy. Due to stubbornly playing Dronkey, Tunes got sent to losers early by Smegaman. He then lost game 1 of his set vs Barca. And then… he switched to Red Riding Hood. To this day, people still talk of the destruction he left in his wake. He beat Barca, Dan, Setaek, Flick, and Dan Soup without dropping a game, won £11, and sparked discussions that led to Red Riding Hood’s ban. His work finally done, he left the competitive scene without a word, never to return.

#44 – Galaxy Heart

An interesting underdog story, Galaxy Heart is perhaps best known for her surprising win at Heir III over established slammers Dan Soup and RashAttack. But her slamming career didn’t start there — a year before, at Heir II the Throne, she placed 9th, being eliminated by the future legend himself, Lord Ape. Due to being an offline-only player, she has been retired since Heir III; but rest assured, if Galaxy Heart ever makes her return, her Puss in Boots is certain to be a threat.

#43 – Razmataz

One of the most highly ranked Puss-in-Boots mains on the SlamRank, Razmataz is a paragon of consistency. With consistently high placements at his local tournaments, culminating in a 4th place finish at Bailrigg, Razmataz’s jab-and-special heavy play was basic, but effective. With wins over players such as GDRR, Arinaga, and DrZero11, Razmataz is a player to watch if he ever makes his return to the swamp.

#42 – Lalzu

Being one of the co-founders of ShrekBoards, Lalzu’s impact on the competitive Shrek SuperSlam scene is undeniable. Hosting the first netplay tournament ever, Slam in the Swamp, and boasting a win over the scene’s creator kirby, Lalzu’s Prince Charming will go down in history as one of the greats of all time. Perhaps one day in the future Lalzu will find time to return to the scene, but for now, he is far too busy retweeting anime memes to make his return. We can only tremble in fear, awaiting the return of the true Charming GOAT.

#41 – Fiona Main

The ever-enigmatic Fiona main from KevinSHREKEROgre’s scene, Fiona Main, the Fiona main, has demonstrated mysterious powers that we only hear of in hushed whispers. No footage exists of their play. We only know of their existence through second hand tales, that speak of a Fiona so powerful, that they were able to best Kevin several times over. It seems that they have since been surpassed by Kevin’s Shrek, but if they ever make their netplay debut — and get an actual slammer tag — it’s very possible they could make a huge impact.

Another ten people that etched their names in slammer history. Who’s going to barely miss the cut for top 50?

#60 – LongshoreDrift

A slammer from the early days of the scene, LongshoreDrift’s results remain impressive even to this day. Though he tied for last at Heir II the Throne, his 5th place performance at Slam in the Swamp, including wins over Murtag and starfahx, earned him a respectable 15th place on the original SlamRank. Though he has not been seen since that day, his impressive legacy remains.

#59 – 20FU

The second of two Black Knights that placed highly at Heir III, 20FU boasts even more impressive results than Geobreaker. Not only did 20FU place 3rd, beating Geobreaker in a 3rd-place tiebreaker, but he was the player who eliminated top slammer Dan Soup from the entire tournament. Unfortunately his bracket run was ended by seasoned slammer RashAttack, but not without taking a game before ultimately falling. Though he may be a one tournament wonder, 20FU’s mark on Shrek SuperSlam history is undeniable.

#58 – DrZero11

A true fan of Shrek SuperSlam, and an experienced Black Knight player, DrZero11 slams his way onto the SlamRank at #58. Despite experiencing lows such as a loss to Bandit at Shrek SuperSlam at LU 3, when DrZero was playing on point, his Black Knight was truly unstoppable. This was more true than ever at Yet Another LU Shrek Tournament, where he placed 3rd, including a win over DeckThalz.

#57 – Arinaga

A veteran of the Lancaster scene, Arinaga had consistent placements throughout his slamming career. Not only did he achieve wins over top slammers such as DeckThalz and Razmataz, but he also established himself as the best Gingerbread Man main in his local scene. However, his most impressive performance was at Bailrigg, where he defeated Balb0a, CactuS, Charnucky, DrZero11, and Yatogami in losers’ bracket, after being sent to losers round 1 by Yatogami.

#56 – GiNome

An often forgotten player, GiNome only attended a single netplay tournament, but made a strong impression nonetheless. Despite maining G-nome, an often forgotten low tier, he managed to take a game from established slammer Lord Ape, along with beating DaltonSezHi 2-0. Unfortunately, he’s chosen to focus on Super Smash Bros. Melee since that day, but as the second highest ranked G-Nome player on this list, he’s a force to be reckoned with.

#55 – Ebola

Ebola is an Anthrax main originally from Georgia, though she currently resides in Phoenix, Arizona. She placed third at the first We Shrek Those, defeating CttL, who she also teamed with in doubles. While distance has left her unable to attend recent We Shrek Those tournaments, she has expressed interest in joining the netplay community.

#54 – Myopic

Myopic dominated the very first Warwick tournament, dropping a single game only to Crumpet in the grand finals, all while using Puss-in-Boots, the game’s worst character. Feeling satisfied with such a strong record, Myopic left the game to pursue higher ideals, safe in the knowledge that no-one could surpass the level of power he displayed on that cold January evening.

#53 – Shrexobert

The highest ranked G-nome player on this list, Shrexobert performed impressively at all of the tournaments he attended. Not only has he never placed below top 4 at a RååLan Slam, but he picked up several impressive wins along the way, including a win over Happa at RååLan Slam 7. At the same tournament, Shrexobert even managed to take a game from JF in Losers’ Finals, but ultimately couldn’t clutch it out. If there’s a RååLan Slam 8, Shrexobert is THE G-nome to watch.

#52 – Jai

A regular competitor at Warwick tournaments, Jai (later XKCD) is a Fiona main with an impressive track record – coming third in the first ever Warwick tournament, and continuing to place in the top 8 right up to Absolutely Pissed Off 3. Perhaps his best known contribution, however, was his clutch stream of Slamtober when the intended hosts pulled out at the last minute. While the VODs now remain lost to time, Jai’s technical wizardry is a big reason why the tournament sticks in the hearts and minds of players to this day.

#51 – Aniki

Aniki, formerly known as IDontKnow and currently known as stilladuckling, is a Black Knight main from Atlanta, Georgia, and one of the most consistent players in the Georgia scene. He boasts solid finishes at both We Shrek Those #5 and We Shrek Those #6, and has only ever lost to the top four players in the state. At We Shrek Those #6, Aniki lost a nailbiter game 3 set to G1itchy’s Puss In Boots, solidifying his place among the Georgia best.

The SlamRank continues. Who will make an appearance this time?

#70 – Setaek

Despite his impressive Puss-in-Boots play, Setaek never quite got a chance to shine. Though he earned an impressive 4th place at Outrageous Shrek, his run was overshadowed by the breakout performance of Tunes. But don’t let this fool you — Setaek’s Puss-in-Boots is ruthless, and his long losers run is not to be ignored. After losing round 2 winners to Dan Soup, Liam eliminated Toby, Aplumbernulp, Dan W, and Smegaman, before finally being eliminated himself by Tunes. Though he never returned to competitive Shrek SuperSlam, he goes down as being one of the Puss-in-Boots greats.

#69 – Winter

One of the co-TOs of Bailrigg, and a strong Gingerbread Man main in his own right, Winter earns himself the coveted #69 spot on the Ultimate SlamRank. Winter started his slamming career by eliminating Moke from the first Shrek SuperSlam at LU, though this was before Moke found his true calling as a Luna main. Regardless, Winter followed this up with several consistent placements at his local Lancaster tournaments, culminating in a 9th place finish at Bailrigg, with a win over LilJamesy, a strong Puss in Boots main.

#68 – FishEatCorn

An experienced Smash Bros. player, FishEatCorn applied his strong fundamentals to his Shrek SuperSlam play, and it showed. Though he never got to compete at a major tournament, even choosing to drop out of Outrageous Shrek to focus on Smash, he achieved impressive results nonetheless. With 2nd place finishes at both Soupy Smash 3 and Northwest Slam, with his only losses being to Dan Soup, it really is a shame that he never got to demonstrate his skills on a bigger stage.

#67 – ArrowYogurt

Placing 2nd at the largest Shrek SuperSlam tournament of all time, ArrowYogurt’s Fiona won him not only a blender, but a lot of respect in the eyes of the community. Though he was 2-0’d by Meerkat in the Grand Finals, game 1 ended in a last stock situation, so the set was closer than many people might believe. Unfortunately, ArrowYogurt has not yet made his netplay debut. But either way, his 2nd place at Shrekfest is an incredible start to his slamming career.

#66 – Barca

Arguably one of the most slept on Shrek SuperSlam players of all time, Barca was one of the few Lancaster players to not attend the local university, preventing him from attending any Shrek SuperSlam at LU events. Despite this, his Pinocchio put in work at both Outrageous Shrek instalments. At the first one, he took a game from Tunes’ Dronkey in losers bracket, forcing the Red Riding Hood legend to switch to his true main, eventually dominating the tournament. And at Outrageous Shrek 2, he earned a notable win over strong local Gingerbread Man main Arinaga. Unfortunately computer problems prevented him from ever competing on netplay, but if he ever makes his debut, prepare for some upsets.

#65 – Andy

The gatekeeper of the Warwick scene, Andy was a strong Puss-in-Boots main that raised the bar for his fellow slammers during the formative years of the game. Boasting wins over strong players such as kirby, Murtag and RashAttack, though it was very early in the game’s life, his skill is undeniable.

#64 – LilJamesy

Yet another member of the Lancaster Puss in Boots army, LilJamesy exploded onto the scene with an upset over then-Dronkey main Murtag at Shrek SuperSlam at LU 1, prompting him to switch character to Gingerbread Man in losers bracket. But not only that… the round before, he defeated Moke, though this was before Moke’s ascension to a Luna god. Either way, though LilJamesy only placed 3rd at that tournament, he continued to achieve consistent results throughout his slamming career. Unfortunately, he ended on a disappointing 13th at Bailrigg, losing to fellow Puss in Boots main Winter, but the sky’s the limit for this Puss in Boots main if he ever makes his return.

#63 – Eggman_spam

Along with GiNome, Eggman_spam is one of the two German low tier heroes that joined the community at the tournament Time to Get Shrekt. With a win over Flick’s then-main Donkey, Eggman_spam proved his Humpty Dumpty was one of the best in the scene. With his only losses being BoastingToast and Lord Ape, it’s hard to say what the true potential of this egg main is.

#62 – Dzuh

What Dzuh lacks in results, he makes up for in potential. Despite going 0-2 at both of the netplay tournaments he entered, watching the sets themselves tells a different story — you see an impressively practiced Huff ‘n’ Puff Wolf. With his worst loss being Sarger, a top Shrek SuperSlam player on his own right, it’s hard to say how far a little practice could take Dzuh’s exciting Wolf gameplay.

#61 – Happa

A consistent RååLan Slam attendee and experience Prince Charming main, Happa barely falls short of breaking the top 60. With wins over slammers such as MITS and SweetFiona, Happa was a consistently high performer at all of the events they attended. Yet more proof of the strength of the RååLan scene, Happa is one to watch in future tournaments.

The SlamRank continues. History is made. Who is going to establish their legacy as a top 80 player? Let’s find out.

#80 – Ultimat3Spaz

An often forgotten player, Ultimat3Spaz’s Puss in Boots had sleeper performances at both of the offline tournaments he attended. With a respectable 5th place at Heir III, tied with Dan Soup, and 9th place at Heir II the Throne, Ultimat3Spaz is a Shrek SuperSlam veteran. Though he is yet to take any huge names, he’s one to watch if there’s any future offline Shrek SuperSlam tournaments in the UK.

#79 – SweetFiona

A regular RååLan Slam attendee, SweetFiona’s Puss-in-Boots is an experienced one. Though she sometimes struggled against the tough RååLan competition, she usually managed to keep it competitive, even managing to take a game from JF at RååLan Slam 2. Perhaps you should call her SweetPussInBoots instead.

#78 – Q Money

The first player that debuted at Shrekfest 2018 on this list, Q Money demonstrated the power of Black Knight and slammed their way into 4th place. Placing 4th at the largest Shrek SuperSlam tournament of all time is no small feat, and Q Money proved that it was no fluke, even managing to take a game from ArrowYogurt along the way.

#77 – Shrektacular

Shrektacular is a Pinocchio main from Georgia who made his mark with a 5th-place showing at We Shrek Those 6, finishing alongside Aniki and only placing behind LadyLiberte, Birdo, G1itchy and TheBoiWhoCriedWolf. Despite his tag, he doesn’t even play Shrek. Boring.

#76 – Kitanamonk

A one-hit wonder back from the early days of the community, Kitanamonk earns the #76 spot entirely based on his run at Heir II the Throne. After losing round 1 to Lord Ape, he defeated LongshoreDrift, Jbgood, and Jai, before finally being eliminated by the then-world champion kirby himself. Sadly, he didn’t attend any tournaments afterwards, but 5th place at the largest Shrek SuperSlam tournament at the time is very impressive.

#75 – BENJI

Another Shrekfest 2018 attendee, BENJI made an even more explosive debut by placing first, with a win over Q Money, only losing to the eventual champion himself Meerkat. Though he’s only #75 on this ranking, his 3rd place at Shrekfest 2018 won him an action figure of E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial from a Kraft Macaroni & Cheese box. So he might not be #1, but who’s the REAL champion?

#74 – snowblack

One of the co-hosts of the NHS Smash #5 Shrek SuperSlam side event, snowblack’s time in the scene was unfortunately short lived. At the only tournament they attended, snowblack defeated two unranked players, earning a top 3 placement at perhaps one of the most stacked offline tournaments ever. Unfortunately they had to drop out of the tournament after making it to Winners’ Finals, and then they quit the scene shortly afterwards. But if snowblack stuck around, it’s very possible we’d have another top Pinocchio player among us.

#73 – Geobreaker

One of the two highly placing Black Knight mains at Heir III, Geobreaker’s run unfortunately ended with a 4th place finish, after losing a 3rd place tiebreaker match to 20FU. But don’t let this fool you; Geobreaker took a game from Galaxy Heart, the eventual champion, so in another world, he perhaps could have won it all. Unfortunately, Heir III was the final entry in the Heir series with a Shrek SuperSlam side event, so Geobreaker has been absent from the scene since.

#72 – MITS

A skilled Humpty Dumpty main from the RååLan scene, MITS made a strong impact at all of the tournaments he attended. Boasting wins over JF and SweetFiona, expect him to be a tournament threat if he ever attends a future RååLan Slam.

#71 – crashbfan

Perhaps better known as an infamous troll and memer from the PlayStation All-Stars community, crashbfan’s antics are actually the original inspiration for competitive Shrek SuperSlam. His original Shrek SuperSlam Spring Tournament, despite being an AI-only parody tournament, inspired kirby to start running real, PvP tournaments. This interesting connection came to a poetic climax at The End of Shrek SuperSlam, where kirby ruthlessly defeated crashbfan 2-0. Regardless, crashbfan’s influence over the scene cannot be denied — perhaps if he took the game seriously, he could finally prove that Donkey is banworthy once and for all.

The second set of ten people… These slammers earn an even higher honour. Because being top 90 in the world at Shrek SuperSlam rather than top 100 is a big deal, right?

#90 – Blue Beast

Another one-tournament wonder, Blue Beast made his Shrek SuperSlam debut at BoastingToast’s Kumite side event. With a 2nd place finish, Blue Beast demonstrated dominance over the non-Toast attendees, only dropping sets to BoastingToast himself. And hey – BoastingToast was the undisputed world champion at the time. Gotta start somewhere!

#89 – CttL

CttL is an old-school Georgia slammer best known for playing Black Knight and G-Nome at the first We Shrek Those tournament. He also entered doubles, where he teamed with Ebola’s Anthrax in the first doubles set ever played for a cash prize. He lost, but that’s beside the point. CttL also attended Slam Jams during the era and has recently expressed renewed interest in the game, wishing to return to it publicly once his schedule permits.

#88 – Smegaman

One of the breakout performers of Outrageous Shrek, this Gingerbread Man and Puss-in-Boots dual-main certainly made a statement at his first tournament. Not only did he manage to take a game from Dan Soup, but he also sent Tunes’ to losers, the eventual winner. Though his run eventually ended at 5th, such a strong performance should not be ignored.

#87 – cleverpidgeon

An experienced Captain Hook main, cleverpidgeon made his promising debut at Absolutely Pissed Off 2, where he was the unfortunate victim of strong performances by Sorzan and hunterstuff. Though he went 0-2, he did not let this discourage him; he continued to compete in the scene, including entering Heir III under the name Puff1n. At Heir III, he was more successful, managing to take a set from unranked slammer MBK before ultimately falling to up-and-comer Camera1.

#86 – BFG

The first Luna main to make an appearance on the list, BFG is the cause of perhaps one of the biggest upsets in Shrek SuperSlam history, when he defeated Flick’s Dronkey at Yet Another LU Shrek Tournament. Opting for a very grounded playstyle, his Luna is very unique, making use of her often-ignored jab combos. He also managed to earn a win over Arinaga at Shrek SuperSlam at LU 2, and placed an impressive 9th at Bailrigg. BFG is one to watch if he ever returns to the swamp.

#85 – Bruh

A veteran of the Georgia scene, Bruh attended the first Slam Jams in 2015. His defensive Dronkey gameplay made an early impact on the regional metagame, but he was cut short from attending tournaments during the We Shrek Those era because of an extended hospitalization for a rare disease. Bruh still resides in Georgia, but is unlikely to make a return to the scene.

#84 – Bandit

Perhaps the most overlooked Lancaster Puss-in-Boots main, Bandit didn’t attend many tournaments, but was sure to make it count when he did. Most notably, his run at Shrek SuperSlam at LU 3 included a win over top Black Knight DrZero11, ending in an impressive 5th place. Unfortunately he then quit the game to focus on other esports, but ending on such a strong performance is a statement in itself.

#83 – DaltonSezHi

One of many players to make his debut at the original Time to Get Shrekt, DaltonSezHi’s promising Prince Charming play earns him #83 on The Ultimate SlamRank. His winners’ run ended early by a rampaging Squeachu, he unfortunately fell in losers to top G-nome player GiNome. Unfortunately, due to prior commitments, he was unable to attend Slamtober, and then retired from the scene. But as with many players before him, if he returned to the community it would be an exciting thing indeed.

#82 – Zach777

The 3rd place finisher at BoastingToast’s tournament SLAM the Record, Zach is perhaps overshadowed by the two titans that placed above him, BoastingToast and Sorzan. But don’t let this fool you — Zach’s Gingy is incredibly strong in its own right. Not dropping a single game to anyone except BoastingToast and Sorzan, and placing above the OG American himself Aaron, Zach777’s tournament debut was also his final tournament, but is a performance worthy of praise.

#81 – Yatogami

The archer extraordinaire himself, the legendary Yatogami earns the 81 spot on the Ultimate SlamRank. A true underdog, Yatogami had humble beginnings – he entered four tournaments in a row without winning a single set. Day after day, this heroic Robin Hood main would show up, enter the bracket, and lose twice. But he learned. And he adapted. And then he showed up at Bailrigg, and put up an absolutely monstrous performance. Starting with decisive victory over Arinaga in round 1, Yatogami also took notable wins over P3DS and Winter, before finally falling to Arinaga in Losers Bracket, though not before taking a game. If he ever makes a return to the scene, the modern Robin Hood metagame will shake in its boots.

So it begins. The top 100 Shrek SuperSlam players of all time. From the beginning of the scene to The End of Shrek SuperSlam, who makes it into the hall of fame?

#100 – Aaron

The self-proclaimed OG American himself, Aaron unfortunately failed to back up his bold claims with results. Despite apparently co-discovering the Swooce with BoastingToast, and innovating the Anthrax metagame, his attempts at competing ended in failure. His sole tournament appearance, SLAM the Record, ended in a disappointing 0-2 performance and 9th place. That said, his influence on the scene cannot be denied — for better or worse — so he barely sneaks into the SlamRank at 100th place.

#99 – FATBEN

Perhaps better known as a competitive Smash Bros player, FATBEN sought to play REAL competitive games when he entered Shrek SuperSlam at Bailrigg. And this goal was rewarded in spades when he placed 9th, including a win over esteemed Pinocchio P3DS. FATBEN’s Gingerbread Man has not been seen in the Shrek SuperSlam scene since that day, which is truly a tragedy — but for now, he’s carved out a spot in Shrek SuperSlam history, as the 99th best player of all time.

#98 – P3DS

Though he was more of competitive Pokemon and Smash Bros player, P3DS’s Pinocchio was a pillar of his local Lancaster scene. Boasting wins over players such as Yatogami, and having several tournaments worth of experience under his belt, his career is unfortunately blemished by several disappointing losses to players such as FATBEN. That said, every competitive career comes with its highs and lows — who knows what the peak of P3DS’s potential would have been if he had kept playing?

#97 – Ed-E

One of the only Captain Hook mains on the Ultimate SlamRank, Ed-E earns his placing entirely based on his 5th place performance at Outrageous Shrek, earning wins over unranked players 101 and Aplumbernulp. Unfortunately, competitive Shrek SuperSlam was just not a priority for Ed-E, so he never got to achieve his true potential. But if this Captain Hook player makes his return to the swamp, you better be ready.

#96 – GRsmash

Yes, that GRsmash. Despite being one of the Top 10 Shrek SuperSlam Players of All Time, GRSmash’s lack of tournament experience unfortunately prevents him from being placed any higher. Though he lost his only two sets at SummerSlam, GRsmash certainly demonstrated potential that cannot be ignored. We can only hope that he finds time inbetween editing Smash Bros highlights to make his long-awaited return to the Shrek SuperSlam scene.

#95 – yung_miyamoto

The highest ranked Donkey main on the whole ranking, yung_miyamoto’s debut unfortunately came right at the very end, during the netplay event The End of Shrek SuperSlam. Though he lost both of his sets, losing to established slammers such as Murtag and Jv5_Guy is nothing to be ashamed of. Stay tuned for great things from this Donkey main if he returns for Season 2.

#94 – pussincoots

A Prince Charming main from redridingshrek’s scene that never attended a single RååLan Slam, pussincoots had perhaps the shortest career of any Shrek SuperSlam player. Not only did he only attend a single tournament, the netplay event Slamtober, he also only played a single set (due to connection problems during his first set resulting in a DQ). But despite this, pussincoots made a mark anyway, taking a game from established Robin Hood main hunterstuff. His career may have been short lived, but his skill should not be underestimated.

#93 – Wags

The 4th place finisher at SLAM the Record, this Gingerbread Man main is perhaps best known for sending the infamous Aaron to losers at his first, and only event. Though Aaron’s true skill is up for debate, taking a set over a veteran player is no small feat, so Wags’ potential should not be ignored. As with many other players, he was a one-hit wonder, attending only a single tournament – but sometimes, that’s all you need to create a legacy.

#92 – Mr. Misfire

A veteran of the scene, Mr. Misfire made his tournament debut at Slam in the Swamp, establishing himself as one of the early Dronkey greats. Though he only attended a single other tournament, the first Absolutely Pissed Off, his impact on the scene had already been made. Don’t let Mr. Misfire’s lack of tournament wins misguide you; ranked 30th on the original SlamRank, he was always a notable player to beat, and his impact on the early Dronkey metagame will not be forgotten.

#91 – TheMadCow

The first of many Puss in Boots mains from the Lancaster scene on this list, TheMadCow demonstrated consistency throughout his slamming career, including wins over P3DS and several unranked players. Unfortunately, his interest in Shrek SuperSlam declined, and he retired, not even entering Bailrigg‘s Shrek SuperSlam event. But perhaps one day, he’ll make his long-awaited return.
