Ban Hungrybox from Melee tournaments

The Issue

Hungrybox is a top player in the fighting game by the name of Super Smash Bros. Melee. Normally, this game is played at high speed, with some players putting in as much as six and seven inputs per second. However, Hungrybox is not like this. He plays remarkably slow compared to the rest of the top players with his character, Jigglypuff as seen in the video provided. This makes the matches less exciting for most viewers and I think that there should be a change. You see, my theory is that if Hungrybox continues to play in this slow and boring way, then less people will be interested in spectating and/or playing the game, meaning the game's growth will begin to decay, along with potentially some parts of it's viewership. Hungrybox very well could be toxic for this community that I hold near and dear. So, my proposal is that we put at least a temporary ban upon Hungrybox's using Jigglypuff, not him completely. And for that I'd probably need the help of Calvin "GimR" Lofton and Daniel "Tafokints" Lee, as they are both big heads in this community, running "VGBootCamp" and "Melee it on Me" respectively.
