Controversy
Cyan Can has been banned for several years on and off by several, but not all, TOs in Arkansas for varying reasons. During the period of 2016 to early 2019, Cyan Can had a series of problematic outbursts at tournaments which led to his local community banning him for his unsettling behavior. Cyan Can quit competing until Summer 2021, where he was subsequently omitted from a PR due to his status. Cyan Can then wrote an apology letter for the incidents after discussing a ban appeal and quit until the next Summer. Cyan Can was then informed that his ban appeal had went through. However, while competing in the Summer of 2022, Cyan Can developed a serious conflict with his local scene. Cyan Can was pressed about how his online was now a problem. Cyan Can expressed that he felt he was being treated differently because he was a previously banned player. Cyan Can once again did not play Smash until the next year, where he competed in North Louisiana due to the local conflict with his scene. Cyan Can then had a series of emotional outbursts online, and ending up cutting himself, due to his problems leading to overwhelming mental stress which caused him to get banned from the Arkansas Melee discord and subsequently North Louisiana. Cyan Can expresses remorse for all the issues involving him in the community, whether he has directly or indirectly caused them, and is no longer involved in any of the communities mentioned.
Regarding mental health: Cyan Can has Aspergers Syndrome, ADHD, and was previously diagnosed with major depression. Cyan Can believes he has another mood disorder but has struggled to get a medical diagnosis as he wants proper treatment.
