Controversy
In February 2019, Cyan Can was formally banned from tournaments in the Ultimate Arkansas Smash community due to disruptive and potentially dangerous behavior. During his local ban, he has only competed in a single regional, GDEX Underworld located in Ohio, in which he placed 7th in singles and 3rd in doubles. It should be noted that other Smash Bros communities (such as the local Super Smash Bros. Melee community) have not had problems with Cyan Can competing at events. Cyan Can participated in some locals in 2021, but was omitted from a PR in which he would've made top 10. A discussion soon afterward lead to him feeling uncomfortable competing and making a retirement post to force himself away from the community, as since coming back to events he had shown no evident problems. He didn't compete 6 months due to this circumstance.
The ban has been lifted completely as of May 2022, although it was intended to be lifted prior. Cyan Can competed for another season showing no evident problems and was within the requirements for PR but was taken out due to a Panel's bias. Cyan Can was told that players on past PRs could not qualify for Gatekeeper (#11) or HM but this was not true. There was also an Northwest Arkansas player on the PR, which he thinks should not be allowed. Since this event, Cyan Can has decided to take a hiatus from entering locals again.
