    Best stage for sheik?

    I would say go to Battlefield as much as you can most of the time. But I personally like going to Yoshi's island

    Best videos for sheik

    I feel this match has a lot of good stuff on the Fox MU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JPmKcsYIJgo M2K does a lot of situational stuff that I personally that I needed to know that I would have normally used fair and given up a potential stock. I think he also plays the neutral pretty smart...

    Down B?

    For me, I find that it's just not worth it to transform into Zelda ever. I'm not confident switching to Zelda to KO puff, because I feel I can just win neutral one more time and down throw fair and go for the edge guard. I've said in other threads. But I don't think it's really ever worth it...

    Sheik Reactionary Tech Chase Input Question

    Thanks for the FTFY And yeah I think using A + Z is a lot smarter cause then if you really need to you can SDI down and tech. And I think for JC grab Y + Z is fine, but I think that's also personal preference there.

    Critique against fox

    Thanks for the tips so far. And yeah that would actually be great, my Facebook is Aaron Stephanyshyn.

    How do you play the ICs matchup?

    Out of your five characters I think Peach actually has the best match up against ICs Dunno about Falcon or Marth in the MU.

    Sheik Reactionary Tech Chase Input Question

    Alright, so the reason a boost grab works is because you're using part of the momentum of the dash attack but since you're cancelling it before the hitbox comes out, you're getting an extending grab box. So the only input for boost grab is A + Z. And you don't want to press them at the same time...

    Hey, I'm not actually new here.

    I'm not actually new here, I've been here for a whole year, but I haven't actually introduced myself so no one outside my region actually knows me. I'm Salsa, I live in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. And my name is Aaron Stephanyshyn. On my local scene's PR I'm currently ranked low silver and have...

    Critique against fox

    So a bit of context, I've been playing melee for a little over a year now, but I mained Falcon for most of it, it was only halfway through the summer this year I made the switch to Sheik, and I've improve tremendously since. So because of that I recently got a chance to play on stream against...

    Slap waveland

    Yeah tap jump + C-stick would be the fastest way to do this, but I think you might be able to do this with Y + C-stick. (Y + -> A Might be quicker but you're giving up pre-emptive DI and mobility)

    The right moments to grab Puff

    Alright, so grabbing Puff is super tricky because she has a lot of ways to bait it. But sometimes I like to do Auto cancel needle's to grab on her shield, while she is out of shield might be ok too but at higher %s? The only super safe time to grab Puff is when she over commits to something...

    Best/Worst Stages for Sheik?

    This is a very good scale. FoD I would say is actually okay against Puff and Peach, but there are better alternatives, against Peach you need to be really confident. Battle field Sheik has a lot of good spacing setups with the plats to auto cancel needles into anything you want, like fair or...

    The Falco Match-Up

    Alright, so I play the MU similar to the fox MU, but that's just cause I don't have a lot of specific knowledge on the Falco MU and more of a general idea, which is enough for me to beat any mid level Falco in my region, higher ranking Falco? not quite enough. KK, so CPs against Falco, it's a...
