Yes you can shoot them in an angle.I read that she cannot just shoot one needle anymore, and rather her needles act as Samus' neutral B. But has anyone seen any information on the nature of Sheik's needles when shot in the air? Do they still shoot at an angle?
How is that unfortunate? Whether you can throw one at a time or not, if you don't want to you can still charge it up. I guess the only difference is now can't charge then roll and still have your charge up. But who cares? They're just needles; they aren't a KO move, they're just annoying. And personally, I used one needle much more than charging. It annoyed the hell out of people and acted as a counter anytime they used projectiles. I'd stand on the opposite edge and just throw one every time they came closer or tried to throw something at me. It was actually one of my favorite moves. Since Sheik is an up close and personal fighter, that one annoying needle throw could make sure her fights stayed close-range.
You can still use needles as an edgeguard but most if not all characters have amazing recovery and die by either smash atts or at very high %. You literally need to go out of the map to get an off stage kill (although that is what I have been doing in melee)Ew, there goes half my edgeguard game...
I made it to the finals of a tournament with needles thank you very much, I was fighting a fox and he was so close combat that i had to retreat and needle the little ******* for a while before I could dthrow to fair him into oblivion!Huh. Well, I guess that's alright, because throwing a quick needle wasn't THAT useful, but I would have liked it better if they had taken out a lot of the startup lag on her needles and just let her throw them as fast as she pleased, regardless of whether she could charge them.
I had to read that like, four times to understand what he meant...fall like nuts in a mouth.
