'''Hungrybox''' is a professional ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' [[smasher]], widely considered to be the best {{SSBM|Jigglypuff}} [[main]] in the world by a considerable margin. He is considered to be [[The Five Gods|one of the top 5 players in the world]], due to consistent placements in top 6 at national events. He was one of the smashers to be sponsored by [[Team Curse]] before it eventually merged with [[Team Liquid]], being picked up by said team on April 17th, 2014. Hungrybox was also previously sponsored by [[CLASH Tournaments]], although he still keeps a close relationship with his former team for his produced content. Hungrybox is currently ranked 1st on the [[Florida Power Rankings|Florida Melee Power Rankings]]. | '''Hungrybox''' is a professional ''[[Super Smash Bros.

Hungrybox was one of the 16 players who participated in the [[Super Smash Bros. Invitational]], placing 2nd with {{SSB4|Kirby}}. At the tournament's end, he challenged Nintendo of America President and COO [[Reggie Fils-Aimé]] to a "For Glory" match after he had teased possible future Nintendo-sponsored tournaments. Fils-Aimé declined, admitting that he "sucks at Smash", but that his "opportunity was coming with {{for3ds}}." He concluded his response by saying he would "come back next time and kick [Hungrybox's] ass," to the amusement of the audience. | Hungrybox was one of the 16 players who participated in the [[Super Smash Bros.

One year later, Fils-Aimé and Hungrybox made a special appearance in the Nintendo World Championships 2015, and played the promised For Glory match, Hungrybox using Jigglypuff, and Fils-Aimé using Ryu. Hungrybox easily won. | ||
