This is the Sheik Leffen developed to take on Ringler's DK, amazing he was able to adapt it to counter Marth.

[@WualdoDJ]

Honestly that its not an easy match for Sheik, but at least i think you can play safer than fox vs marth.

[@A-K1raMUSIC]

Never thought I’d see Leffen win a GF in this era let alone with Sheik. In the decades I’ve watched Melee, I’m still getting surprised to this day.

[@jordandwiggins1026]

He just won one the year before.

I haven’t seen melee in a while but damn that set was sooo good

Honestly Juri’s drive rush is kinda Broken

[@treehann]

Leffen is such an incredible fighting game player, didn't he just win a huge tournament in some other game not long ago? EDIT: yep I'm thinking of Guilty Gear at Evo

[@Evixyn]

Zain parrel "Don't Test Me" did not show up :( These are great close sets, especially the ending. I thought leffen plays on the smash box controller, why did he revert back to the melee controller?

[@fooldiamond5452]

I guess it’s just that smash box isn’t consistent or up to par yet

[@onetakehoovie5955]

Now imagine if Zain went on after losing asking to ban Sheik lol

You know what? I'm glad Leff won. Zain and Leff played really well. I hope there's more of these kinds of tournaments that bring all of us together. Good shit.

[@thisisfyne]

Goddamn, Leffen often gets a bad rep but the win was totally deserved here. He played like mad man! GG to everyone! Top 8 was insane.

[@armorgiraffe]

Well leffen is a fantastic player, just sucks he is a shit human being

[@StatixFH]

yeah the rep is warranted, terrible person but really good competitor

It’s funny I noticed a few times in other games I noticed leffen grabbing edge at really crucial times and it won him the last match

Leffen out here looking like Marcus Aurelius

[@yurplethepurple2064]

Bro you might need to not watch melee if that’s the case

[@thertcll]

There are way too many things happening at once to play by play melee. The color commentary adds a lot in melee and they still were calling moves out constantly. Chill dude.

[@overflowlootbag5566]

I agree to some extent, don’t wanna hear them rambling on about dumb crap we don’t care about when trying to watch the match. It’s distracting. It might just because these particular commentators are shite tho imo idk

[@Molten-Throne]

Both players did great. Was a supa fun watch. Well done to Leffen. Played hella strong here.

Why does Zain keep cornering himself vs Sheik?

[@JoeMama-yb8oc]

Why does leffen go shiek?

[@SlammerFr]

sheik has an easier time vs marth than fox and he trained his sheik specifically in this matchup

[@BasedSif]

I hate how biased the commentary is. This game never changes.

Amazing! Leffen is in another level man, god dammit!!!

[@DeadliestFX420]

leffen looks like hes on life support, just done with the game

These games were so top notch that I found it disrespectful that the commentators were just talking. Nothing against the hard work these amazing guys put in, but the gameplay was so dense that religious silence would have sufficed. Leffen and Zain just made a piece of art with this set.

#banleffen doesn’t deserve his success. He’s a bully and when he losses he won’t acknowledge it to the point where he’ll just come up with excuses or complaints of why he lost

[@Renin_Reyulo]

Isn't leffen that one toxic player that sabotaged the truth about players he wanted cancelled?

[@landinhoule5096]

Yes. Yes he is and he probably won’t be banned because he’s backed by tournament organizers, other top players, and his own personal stanbase that will bully anyone that disagrees with leffen.

[@Zhoaten]

Disgusting that a monster like Leffen is still allowed at tournaments. Feels even worse that he's winning them. I don't care how good of a player he is. After what he's done, he should be permanently banned. The TOs who know about what Leffen has done but still allow him to attend their tourneys should no longer be allowed to be TOs.
