Brawl Central is an unofficial Super Smash Bros Brawl fansite. It acts like the Smash Bros. DOJO!! by providing information related to Super Smash Bros. Brawl, but it also has legitimate sources from Japanese forums (translated).

Brawl Central is run by known Smash Bros. players Chris and the Buzz Saw. The main website features many different pieces of information of Brawl though it is still under development. The forum's section is where all the members gather and discuss topics ranging from, "I've found the Brawl Wavedash!" to "Is Pokemon Trainer really Ash Ketchum?" The Administrators and their horde of moderators help keep things in line, though some responsibility is left to the members to decide whether is is appropriate to post subjects like, "I've got Brawl and I think that Sonic sucks." Brawl Central may not say so directly, but sometimes hints at being site rivals with Smash World Forums. With over 9,000 members, it isn't hard to always find someone to play Brawl with and even other games such as Mario Kart Wii.

A ranking system, similar to the one employed by Smash World Forums, is based off of the tier list from Super Smash Bros Melee.

0-99 posts = Bottom tier

100-499 posts = Lower Tier

500-999 posts = Middle Tier

1000-2,499 posts = High Tier

2,500- 4,999 posts = Top Tier

5,000+ posts = god Tier. (So far only one member named RinneganGod has reached this rank, though member Ryuutakeshi is almost there)

One unique thing about Brawl Central is the character clan section. Starting with the popular Aethercide clan, every character has had a clan started based off of them. Most clan's focus on the one character they are based on, though some clans, like Team R.E.D., focus on all characters. Another clan, named after a famous quote from the Dojo, titled Real Men Use Items is a clan that is based on item use. Other clans, such as KoU (Knights of Underground) simply use all characters of a specific style of expertise, in this example KoU focuses primarily on sword wielders. Clans are also sometimes placed into catagories that include, but are not limited to, "Mainless" (R.E.D.), "Fanclubs" (RPG), "Character" (THE ELITE FOUR), "Specific" (REAL MEN), and even "Gameless" (Mario Kart & R.E.D.).

Alliances are formed between these clans, although so far there has been no need for such alliances. Originally clans could have as many allies and rivals as they wanted but it ended up in a big jumbled mess. Member CO18 wrote up rules regarding clans which have, for the most part, been followed to this day. One such example of a Brawl Central clan alliance is Radiance, which is an alliance between PSI Rockin' (Ness clan), Electric Hunters(Pikachu clan), Triforce Of Wisdom (Zelda/Sheik clan), and the Angels Of Palutena (Pit clan). Also, opposed to alliances some clans have rivalries such as that between the Galaxian Enforcers(Meta Knight clan) and the Aritian Slashers(Marth clan). Clans with rivalries may host tournaments against eachother to test their skills and in general they are friendly rivalries.

Although clans may appear as "copies" and "useless" it's surprising to note that KoU, now the second largest clan, started out as nothing more but a "worthless" clan. Currently all clans are given a chance to begin recruitment (memberships) and are only locked if the thread appears as either Flame or SPAM. However, most, if not all clans, that pass beyond the 5 page mark are usually titled dead and are referred to as being in the "clan abyss".
