Leffen Biography

Leffen is one of the most popular and richest Pro Gamer who was born on October 16, 1994 in Stockholm, Stockholm, Sweden.

Hjelte started playing Super Smash Bros. in 2009, when he was introduced to Super Smash Bros. Brawl. He initially started as a Yoshi and Falco player before switching to Fox. Leffen feels that he made the gradual switch from Falco to Fox because he views Falco as requiring more discipline and Fox being more suited to his play style.

Leffen was previously a controversial figure in the Super Smash Bros. community, where he has been called a “villain” due to acts of bad sportsmanship, including insults targeting other players and online forum posts inciting drama. He was banned from attending tournaments in Sweden and from SmashBoards for much of 2013 because of these reasons. The accusations against Leffen were contained in a Zip file called “evidence.zip”.

William Peter Hjelte (born 16 October 1994), better known as Leffen, is a Swedish professional gamer who competes in Super Smash Bros. Melee, Dragon Ball FighterZ and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. In Melee, he plays as the character Fox, and is considered one of the best players in the world, finishing in the top six in formal rankings in 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, and 2018. Hjelte is the first of two players to have beaten each of the “Five Gods” — Juan “Hungrybox” Debiedma, Joseph “Mango” Marquez, Adam “Armada” Lindgren, Jason “Mew2King” Zimmerman, and Kevin “PPMD” Nanney — in a tournament set and was also the first person outside the “Five Gods” to win a major tournament since 2010 when he did so in 2015.

On 9 March, Hjelte was signed by Team SoloMid as its first player on their Super Smash Bros. division, as well as their first fighting game player. In the aftermath of his Apex 2015, Leffen is now viewed as being on par with the Melee gods. The melee community often debates Leffen’s exact title with regards to the Melee gods. Some say that due to his ability to beat all of the gods he is officially considered one of the gods, while others state that the term Melee God refers to players who were dominant for a period of time from 2008-2014 and that Leffen instead fits the title of Godslayer better.

In VGBootCamp’s Apex 2015 Salty Suite, Hjelte defeated Kashan “Chillin” Khan in a first-to-five set without dropping a single game. Because of this, Hjelte has the “rights” to use Fox’s default color. Joseph “Mango” Marquez subsequently challenged Hjelte to a US$ 1,000 money match if they were to face-off in the Apex Singles bracket. Hjelte would in turn beat Mango when they played in Winners’ Semifinals. After defeating Jason “Mew2King” Zimmerman at Apex 2015 in singles bracket, Hjelte has taken at least one set off each of the “five gods” of Melee. Hjelte ultimately finished third in Apex 2015 Melee singles.
