Leon is a French smasher currently residing in Canada who plays both Melee and Brawl. As he chose his nickname shortly after Brawl was released, most Melee players still know him as Nassim, his real name.

He surprised many players during Epita Smash Arena, his first tournament. While he wasn't aware of advanced techniques, he had developed his own playstyle and combos with Roy, and managed to reach a decent place. He has learned advanced techniques since then, but keeps using Roy as a main. This fact cause him to be overlooked by many opponents who don't know him as he appears as a typical "newbie Roy", allowing him to surprise his opponent, as he plays him in his Gold costume.

He originally mained Peach in Brawl, and was often referred as the French Brawl Champion, since he placed first in most of the Brawl tournaments in France in 2008 (and thus placed 1st in the 2008 Rankings) with her.

He is now primarily a Marth player, and continues to place high in tournaments that he enters, though his extremely aggressiveAR playstyle occasionally works to his detriment, as seen here.

Leon frequently attended major tournaments in North America, such as SKTAR and the Apex tournament series, where he has achieved significant placings. He has taken sets off of top players such as DEHF. He moved to Ontario after Apex 2014.
