The only time you don't double D-smash is when you're timing a kill, basically. It's certainly harder to double D-smash and spike with a Flip Jump than to just D-smash once and give yourself some time to prepare.

I'd say 80:20 Sheik is a bit of an exaggeration, but 65:35 easily. She's going to do two main things to annoy you: F-tilt locks and F-air semi-spikes. I'd say that the best thing to remember in this match is that you're a good gimp character too and your recovery is far better than hers. If...

C'mon guys, he's got a great point: NO ONE BUT US KNOWS THAT THE PIECE BOUNCES! And there's absolutely no way to break through a bouncing armour piece.

Kirby, Pikachu, Fox, Olimar, Pit, Wario, and Ike. I couldn't use any of those characters even if I wanted to (I really want to learn Kirby :( ).

64 - Jiggly/Samus Melee - Zelda/Samus To be honest, I never really liked Samus' style in the first two installments but always used her because she's my hero and the Metroid series is amazing. When Brawl came out and I used ZSS for the first time, it was a match made in heaven. Finally, my...

It's interesting that they give Zelda/Sheik different names but not Zero Suit/Power Suit, since Zelda/Sheik can freely transform and ZS/PS cannot. It's also odd that Zero Suit is just known as "Samus" when the stage mentions names (PS, PS2, and Pictochat) but has her own crowd cheer and is...

You probably BROKE TEH WHIPZ

Didn't read much of the thread, but the reason many people find the Lucario match-up to be so awful isn't because it actually is difficult. It's because it requires a different style of play. Most ZSS mains are used to an extremely offensive style because let's face it, she's an aggressive...

Good stuff. Would have liked to see more side-B's that actually connect and, as noted above, maybe some opponents other than Ike or Samus.

The Zelda/G&W matchup doesn't even really exist because all sane Zelda mains will either counterpick or switch to Sheik.

If they ban the D-smash chain, they'll have to ban IC's chaingrab too, which they don't seem to be doing.

To whoever was saying things about Zelda and Sheik just being different facets of the same character, it's a bit different from using only certain portions of another character's moveset. When you transform, you're subject to completely new rules of physics and you are giving up your abilities...

If we're talking about two evenly-skilled players (which we are when discussing match-ups), ZSS still has a pretty decent advantage. 70/30 sounds like a big advantage but I guess it's about right. Foxes that try to avoid the D-smash chain typically go aerial a lot and ZSS kinda ***** them up...

Fieryblast: In regards to your earlier post, Mario's F-smash outranges Zelda's if I remember correctly.

Sheik and Mario is a pretty even match. Neither has anything that will put the other in any real advantageous position. 50:50 Zelda is another story. I main Zelda and I'm willing to admit she has a very slight disadvantage in the matchup because Mario is one of the few characters (if not the...
