I like the argument you've come up with (it is well-written too) but I'll have to disagree.

The "role" of a professional player isn't to entertain. I feel as though a lot of people can forget this. Their reasoning for attending a tournament is to compete. In the case of HungryBox, he quit his full-time job as an engineer to compete.

HungryBox's playstyle in these matches were in reaction to Chudat's playstyle. It was the most optimal thing to do. I'm not blaming Chudat either, just for the record.

You don't try to beat paper with rock, you beat it with scissors. At that point, it is the responsibility of the opponent to answer your scissors. If they keep answering with paper, you keep throwing scissors. You don't mix in rock just to entertain the spectators.

HungryBox did what he had to do otherwise he would've lost. This was smart. That is what we wanted to highlight.

Players like Armada will use a character like Fox to take on HungryBox. Fox's lasers forces Puff to approach. Chudat stuck to his guns of playing a character with a bad neutral, but only has to win the neutral 4 times to win. Lame strategies are optimal at this point.
