Hungrybox was often seen as a very one-dimensional, "campy" player up to [[EVO 2015]], where he would easily and consistently defeat opponents outside of the top 5, but faltered against players of his level who could adapt to situations more effectively than he could. Hungrybox has since improved his adaptation skills and incorporated semi-aggressive grounded approaches into his playstyle, often leading to grabs or aerials that send his opponents off-stage. This change of play gives him far more variety and further promotes his control over the flow of the match, as opponents must be ready to change focus on a moment's notice, all the while being very aware of the looming possibility of a Rest. His improvements as a player have seen him much greater success in recent years, to the point where he was considered the best player in the world from 2017 to 2019. He credits much of his success to working with {{Sm|Crunch}}, his coach and longtime friend, who helped him optimize his decision making and come up with gameplans for all of his main rivals.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yzKP3HXZhf4|title="Team Liquid vs. Team Catfish - Friendship in a Game of Loneliness"}}</ref> | Hungrybox was often seen as a very one-dimensional, "campy" player up to [[EVO 2015]], where he would easily and consistently defeat opponents outside of the top 5, but faltered against players of his level who could adapt to situations more effectively than he could.

Hungrybox is well known for his ability to "clutch", or win by what seems an impossibility, in a last-game, last-[[stock]], usually last-hit fashion, most famously at {{Trn|EVO 2016}} against {{Sm|Armada}} in grand finals, when he came back from the brink of last-stock elimination to reset the bracket and win the tournament. This has earned him the nickname of "Clutchbox" (alongside other variations, such as " | Hungrybox is well known for his ability to "clutch", or win by what seems an impossibility, in a last-game, last-[[stock]], usually last-hit fashion, most famously at {{Trn|EVO 2016}} against {{Sm|Armada}} in grand finals, when he came back from the brink of last-stock elimination to reset the bracket and win the tournament.
