===Opinion on ''Ultimate''===

Despite focusing on ''Ultimate'' for a year, Leffen has been openly critical about the game, even going as far as to say that playing top-level ''Ultimate'' "is just pure fucking torture to me."<ref>{{cite web|url=https://twitter.com/TSM_Leffen/status/1200853073935159301|title=Leffen's Tweet before DreamHack Winter 2019}}</ref> As a result, he has butted heads with several other ''Ultimate'' professionals. Most notably, on September 26th, he argued with {{Sm|Rickles}} that streaming ''Ultimate'' was painful to him, that he would "rather flip burgers at [sic] mcdonalds if it paid the same amount," and that streaming ''Ultimate'' was harder than holding a minimum wage job.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://twitter.com/TSM_Leffen/status/1310010198002728961|title=Flipping Burgers Tweet}}</ref> This Tweet was met with backlash and mockery from the community: users noted the difficulty of minimum wage jobs especially during the COVID-19 pandemic while several Smashers such as {{Sm|Axe}} recounted how they hated working at their minimum wage jobs before they went professional. The Tweet eventually caused "Leffen" to trend on Twitter<ref>{{cite web|url=https://twitter.com/iamrickles/status/1310586002747076609|title=Archived Minimum Wage Tweet}}</ref>. Leffen would later delete and apologize for his minimum wage Tweet.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://twitter.com/TSM_Leffen/status/1310482233170579456|title=Leffen apologizing for his Tweet}}</ref>

===Defamation Alligations===

On July 2nd, 2020, amidst a wave of sexual harassment allegations in the community, artist Jisu posted a tweet where she called out ZeRo for showing her hentai and explicit Craigslist ads when she was 15<ref>{{cite web|url=https://twitter.com/JisuArtist/status/1278843558401675264|title=Jisu's statement}}</ref>. ZeRo later responded, admitting that he looked at hentai but denied that he had shown it to her, nor would he show it to an entire room of people. He also denied showing her the ads<ref>{{cite web|url=https://docs.google.com/document/d/e/2PACX-1vQJpUoVhxCgh9_75K8WAYN56d5yvxINwy3c3fPFCMkoEnThJs4qSIk0GY0T8AJ0T_ySDGxhrixCs0ng/pub|title=ZeRo's response to Jisu}}</ref>. Following this defense, many people started to target Jisu for "clout-chasing." Leffen however would defend Jisu's claims by claiming that he saw ZeRo show people hentai in public, a statement that was backed up by a screenshot from an anonymous user later sent to Leffen<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.twitlonger.com/show/n_1sra9ee?new_post=true|title=https://www.twitlonger.com/show/n_1sra9ee?new_post=true}}</ref>. ZeRo would later confirm this and many other alligations made about him to be true several days later. <ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.twitlonger.com/show/n_1sraama|title=ZeRo's final statement}}</ref>

However, on June 25th 2021. Technicals would make a YouTube video debunking a vast majority of Jisu's allegations towards ZeRo <ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=luQgX3zEExU</ref>. In the same video, Jisu even featured a brief section where he interviewed ZeRo about Leffen's allegations. ZeRo would state that he didn't remember any of the events that Leffen claimed to have happened. He would later state in the interview that he felt as if "he was trapped by Leffen into being pressured into admitting the truth" due to all of the allegations against him. And that by apologizing for Leffen and Katie, he would be creating a false agenda that Jisu's story would be correct.

Leffen has yet to address Technical's video.
