Throughout the course of 2012, Leffen established himself as Europe's second-strongest player behind {{Sm|Armada}}, with key results at {{Trn|Smashers' Reunion: Melee Grande}} and at {{Trn|hf.lan 4}}. He sparred often with Armada, making headway but never taking a set. He came closest at {{Trn|Beauty 6}} in January 2013, where he was leading winners' finals 3-2 (in a best-of-7) and brought the sixth game to last stock before Armada clutched out the victory, going on to win the set 4-3. | Throughout the course of 2012, Leffen established himself as Europe's second-strongest player behind {{Sm|Armada}}, with key results at {{Trn|Smashers' Reunion: Melee Grande}} and at {{Trn|hf.lan 4}}.

Leffen also began traveling to North American supermajors during this time, and was noted as one of Armada's frequent travel companions from Europe. He displayed many respectable performances vs. the world's best players, but ultimately failed to make any top eight placings in North America from 2011 to 2013. {{Trn|GENESIS 2}} was his first tournament in the United States, where he placed 17th, defeating {{Sm|SFAT}} in pools, but losing to SFAT and {{Sm|S2J}} in bracket.

In losers, Leffen lost another last-hit set to {{Sm|JAVI}}, placing 17th. | ||
In February 2013, a group of prominent TOs and community members (led by Armada) announced that [[#Ban from European tournaments & Evidence.zip|Leffen was banned]] was from many European tournaments due to his conduct.
