Yeah, I think Zelda's underrated, but then again, who isn't?

I sometimes used Zelda. My opponents think I'm transforming into Sheik before the match starts, but nope, I stay Zelda.

Then they be like, "ZOMG MINDGAMES!"

I love Zelda, Zelda is the smartest character in this game, seriously. She owns Fox, Falco, Capt Falcon, Ganon *the dude who kidnaps her*. I mean go ahead, fight a smart a** Zelda vs a sheik or fox or whatever and i know for a fact your not going to win. Believe this or not, its true.

PS: Im Zelda!

Sheik is a who(you know the rest) because everyone uses her. Big difference, though, when you start getting into who can use her WELL. I can only play her a little bit, but I love Zelda's style.

It just makes me so upset that I can rarely use her in tournaments. ;_;

sadly sheik is zelda's hardest matchup. My zelda has problems with sheiks because they can basically interrupt all angles where you attack from with a much quicker attack, while moving faster and comboing faster. The skill difference is HUGE between a good zelda and an okay sheik. Zelda vs spacies or falcon is much easier.

I'm not even going to deny that. It's just really hard to get a hit in vs. a good Sheik, let alone a great one. Poor Zelda can't do much of anything in higher-leveled competitions without getting hers handed to her. ;_;

I dont have problems fighting Sheik with Zelda, i usually own Sheik with Zelda. I think Zeldas biggest disadvantage is Marth. His range can mess Zelda up pretty bad.

Patients and GOOD mindgames is all you need to beat any character. screw speed and all of that. put what I just said together and Zelda can beat anyone in this game. It wont be easy but Zelda can beat anyone. Case closed

Obviously Sheik is better, but for a low tier character Zelda is definately one of the best. She has a long range and short range game, plus has the amazing lightning kick. If Sheik wasn't so amazing, I would play as Zelda more.

The thread is fine, it has some good discussion.

Although, i WOULD appreciate it if you went and edited youre first post's title into something like:
"Why do you use zelda?"

That way we have people's reason's all over this thread already, and the thread becomes productive

Sheik is a who(you know the rest) because everyone uses her.
oddly enough, fox falco peach marth falcon link samus are all more commonly played than sheik.

marth is the single most common tournament character.

Now, yeah. I'm just remembering before, where everyone could play her and did. I'm disliking her less and less because of it, though she's still a tilt and fairing w****. ^_^;

Why use Zelda and not ONLY use sheik? it makes u a more well rounded player if u know how to use more characters.

Plus it messes with your opponent...talk about a major mind game...changing your entire set of moves :p

If you put it that way, any char CAN beat any other char, it's just the likelyhood of whether or not that's going to happen. Regardless of the tier list, a Mewtwo could easily pwn a Fox if the Fox screwed up. But does that happen often? No, it doesn't. I'm not disagreeing with you, im just saying that this is flawed logic.

Lol guys I assume that vid was the prodigykid vs Kawn one where kawn pwns prodigykid
It's coz prodigykid's sheik used to suck. (Dunno about now, but it used to be terrible:p)
So that vid isn't a good zelda beating a good sheik, it's a good zelda beating a BAD sheik

it's true, zelda has nothing on sheik >< no edgeguard, no grab, no speed
: /

it's a terrible matchup

edit: whoops.

I usually play Shiek dittos with my friend... And what i do is combo/shainthrow him to high %s, then turn to Zelda to finish him off. I've tried it the other way around or with all shiek or all zelda, but it just doesn't work as well as the way I do it. Like that other guy said somewhere, switching everything about your character halfway into a match can really mess up someone.
