Leffen and Chillin are two longtime veterans of the fighting game community who both play the same character: Fox, titular character of Nintendo franchise "Star Fox" and Melee's all-around best character. After over a year of trash talk and back-and-forths, the two agreed to allow one set to settle their rivalry once and for all. Fox vs. Fox. First to win five games. Winner walks away with $100.

Leffen went on to wipe the floor with Chillin, coasting to a 5-0 victory.
