'''Chillin''' (formerly 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 has written a notable amount about his past history and the origins of ''Melee'' in his blog, "History of a Smasher", on [[SmashBoards]]. Chillin is currently ranked 2nd on the DMV ''Melee'' Power Rankings and 54th on the [[2015 SSBMRank]]. He was also formerly ranked 6th on the MD/VA ''Project M'' Power Rankings and 8th on the discontinued [[Smash Panel Power Rankings]].
'''Chillin''' (formerly known as '''chillindude829''') is an American professional [[smasher]]. He is well known for telling everyone to Respect Their Elders, and not being lawful while doing so, forcing players to stop talking. He is notable for being the first notable {{SSBM|Fox}} player in competitive ''[[Melee]]'', but despite this, he is not a God, but rather a God-awful. His play has led many to start gawking as they look at his Fox, which is so outdated that he might as well stick to ''Smash 4'' because he always loses by 4 stocks. [[Melee It On Me]] wasn't a fan of his style because he didn't stan his ground, and kicked him while he was down by giving him a paltry 54th on the [[2015 SSBMRank]] due to his inability to beat neither {{Sm|Mango}} (even when he chokes) nor {{Sm|Armada}} (even when he hosts a tournament).

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]]).
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). However, no one could have told how foolish he would look when Ken brought it back in losers' bracket and brutally JV 4-stocked him in losers [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sS_4OFpToXM (evidence.zip showing the ass-whooping here)], after which he probably threw his controller. During the 2003-2007 era of ''Melee'', Chillin was a common participant in nationals, such as MLG events, but was exposed as a fraud because he won none of them and failed to make it to the final top 8 bracket in [[MLG Las Vegas 2006]]. Thus he was never a God, and about 10 years after Chillin's prime, Plup showed up and confirmed this by [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QkB_FYp3R7E bodybagging Chillin's Fox and dot-zipping it shut].
 
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. 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.
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, playing {{SSBB|Snake}} and trying to disgrace his opponents and put them in their places by using Snake's missiles to hit them in the face. He 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. However, he was possibly just scared of {{Sm|Ally}} and decided to watch his mouth before the better Snake player decided to call him out.


At Apex 2015, Chillin challenged {{sm|Leffen}} to a first-to-five Fox ditto during the Salty Suite for the right to use Fox's default color palette in Smash tournaments. He lost to Leffen 0-5.
At Apex 2015, the Salty Suite went down. Chillin, who was tired of {{sm|Leffen}} not showing his elders some respect, challenged Leffen to a first-to-five Fox ditto during the Salty Suite to try to make the up-and-coming Fox main come correct. He gained an early lead, but was swiftly 0-5'd, but he wasn't done yet. Being the underdog and not standing a chance, losing his placed bet of $100, he failed to make Leffen look dumb and didn't make any money. As he slowly rose up from his chair, looking awfully weak in front of thousands in the Salty Suite, he basically admitted that vanilla Fox didn't suit him and that he had to go find another, and learned his lesson and rescinded his color with the following words of wisdom: "My B."
