Okay, I saw a video on this a week or so ago, and figured it was all over smashboards already.

The set up is simple: The Ftilt to Footstool to Fastfalled Bair that has been a staple in Sheik games for months. However, until now I've only seen it used to set up needles.

I have no idea how this was missed - when they're on the ground, rather than needle them, simply walk up and Ftilt them again. This allows the entire process to repeat. Due to the Footstool mechanics there is no teching, making this combo nigh-inescapable until percentages where the Ftilt can just set up into a tipper Usmash for the kill.

The only character that this does not work on is Ivysaur. But there's an alternate version to the combo (don't do the Bair, just fastfall and wait for the stand up and repeat the Ftilt) that works on him anyways. Plus, who plays Ivysaur?

This is what the community has been waiting for to blow Sheik's game wide open.

It actually doesn't work on anyone except ROB, G&W, Jigglypuff, Olimar, Samus, and Wario. The reason it was "missed" is because it's been heavily talked about to hell already.
