'''Chillin''' (also known as '''chillindude829''') is an American professional [[smasher]]. He is well known for being the first notable {{SSBM|Fox}} player in competitive ''[[Melee]]'', popularizing the use of several Fox techniques that are commonly used by professionals today. He was a prominent member of [[H2YL]] when the crew was active, and his written a lot about his past history and the origins of ''Melee'' in his blog, "History of a Smasher", on [[Smash World Forums]]. Chillin is currently ranked 1st on the DMV ''Melee'' Power Rankings, formerly ranked 2nd on the MD/VA ''Project M'' Power Rankings, and was also ranked 8th on the discontinued [[Smash Panel Power Rankings]].
'''Chillin''' (also known as '''chillindude829''') was an American professional [[smasher]]. He died during apex 2015 after he got rekt in his infamous money match 0-5 against Leffen, May he rest in peace.  


Chillin has been a contender in ''Melee'' tournaments since 2002, and was the first ever player to take a set off of {{Sm|Ken}} in a singles tournament (at {{b|Game Over|tournament}} in early 2004). He was known for creating several Fox combos during his early career, such as using three falling up airs in a row, and [[waveshining]] across the stage along with a [[shine spike]]. During the 2003-2007 era of ''Melee'', Chillin was a common participant in nationals, such as MLG events, being able to frequently place within the top 8 of them. In doubles, he often teamed with {{Sm|Azen}}, being the first team to defeat the team of Ken and {{Sm|Isai}} in grand finals of a tournament (at [[MLG Chicago 2006]]).
During the 2008-2010 era, after ''Melee'' presence began dying out due to ''Brawl'' tournaments beginning to appear, Chillin continued to play ''Melee'', but not at the same level that he used to. He briefly played ''Brawl'' shortly after its release, and placed 3rd at [[Critical Hit 3]], though has since quit, viewing ''Brawl'' as a non-competitively viable fighting game due to its removal of techniques and overly defensive gameplay, which, in his opinion, took away from the depth of the game.
In 2011, Chillin accompanied his long time friend and doubles partner Azen in Azen's first tournament appearance in almost four years, at [[Pound V]] in February 2011, where they placed 9th in doubles. He and Azen then started a new YouTube series, "Fight Nights with Azen and Chillin," in which they would talk about fighting games and aim to share strategies and help others improve.
Chillin remains a top Fox player, and is still able to place highly at various nationals. On April 11th, 2014, Chillin was picked up by [[Team Curse]] prior to their merge with [[Team Liquid]], being the first player to be selected for their ''Melee'' team. Recently, at [[EVO 2014]], he managed to defeat {{Sm|Colbol}} 2-1 and {{Sm|Westballz}} 2-0 in the losers' quarters pool before losing to {{Sm|Fly Amanita}} 0-2, placing 9th overall in ''Melee'' singles.
Chillin is also a professional {{PM|Wolf}} player in the ''Brawl'' mod ''[[Project M]]''. He commonly competes in ''Project M'' locals in the MD/VA area, though he has not made many impacts in singles events at national tournaments. He usually teams with {{Sm|ChuDat}} at nationals; the two have achieved decent results in doubles events.
