The Box is an online tournament series held by Team Liquid on Hungrybox's Twitch channel, mostly region-locked to North American countries. The series originally started with The Box and consisted of a weekly (Juice Box) held on Wednesdays as well as a monthly at the end of each month (Lunch Box) limited to Hungrybox's Twitch subscribers. The series was eventually sponsored by Coinbase in February 2022, which shifted focus to the weeklies, now renamed to The Coinbox, with $2,000–$3,000 prize pools. Future events eventually hosted other games instead of Ultimate, including Melee in 2023, although Ultimate remained the primary focus and still had two Coinboxes every month. Following updates to the Nintendo Community Tournament Guidelines, which added restrictions to cryptocurrency company sponsorships for large-scale events, Coinbase and The Box series will part ways after Coinbox IRL 2, with The Box switching to a different sponsor.

Unaffiliated with Team Liquid or Coinbase, Hungrybox began running smaller, single-elimination events branded as "The To-Go Box" in late May 2024, with the first event being for Melee. These tournaments are intended to be used for more frequent practice and have more experimental rulesets than the Coinbox series.

The Box is often regarded as the premier online Ultimate tournament series and has been compared to Japan's Smashmate as a similar training ground for top players. Many players who frequently compete in The Box events, especially during its Coinbox phase, have since established themselves as strong players online, including Sparg0, Sonix, and ShinyMark.

Notable Events[edit]

Melee Coinbox[edit]

While The Coinbox started as an Ultimate series, Melee began being run in February 2023, switching games every week, with Ultimate on Wednesdays and Melee on Tuesdays. However, on November 8th, 2023, following the announcement of the Nintendo Community Tournament Guidelines, Hungrybox announced that Team Liquid would not be seeking a license for Melee Coinboxes due to the usage of Slippi, and that the final Melee Coinbox would be Coinbox #84.[1] There were ultimately 18 Melee Coinboxes held throughout 2023, of which Cody Schwab won an impressive 11 of the 14 that he entered. At times, there were bounties put on Cody Schwab for anyone to claim if they could take a set off him in bracket.

Character Bans[edit]

Steve has had mixed legality throughout the history of The Coinbox series. Following Coinbox #51, Steve was indefinitely banned from The Coinbox on March 2nd, 2023, with Hungrybox stating that the discovery of the Phantom MLG tech and the difficulties of banning it on its own, especially online, was the "straw that broke the camel's back."[2] This lasted until January 2024, when Hungrybox announced that Steve would be unbanned on the first Coinbox of each month of 2024, beginning with Coinbox #87, stating that he didn't want to have a complete ban on a character which is legal in the majority of regions around the world.[3] Steve was later fully unbanned on April 1st, 2024, when the series shifted from weekly to biweekly.[4] Steve has ultimately been banned from a total of 24 Coinboxes, those being #53-86, #88, #89, #93, #95, #96, and #97.

Hungrybox has also floated the idea of banning Sonic from The Coinbox, citing the effect that the character has on stream viewership.[5]

After the results of a Twitter poll, Bayonetta was banned from The Coinbox 98 - SM4SH SENDOFF held just days before the Wii U online servers shut down on April 8th.[6] Additionally, custom sizes for the Mii Fighters were banned for the tournament, though default-sized Miis were legal with any custom special moves.
