I played against Starlord who is ranked 5th on the SC PR 2020, I am posting because I think the VoD will help Luigi players struggling against Fox/Sheik.
Game 1 he played Fox and I had an excellent game that is worth watching with clean edgeguards, a sweet down-b clank on shine into a dair spike at 1:15, and other combos, game 2 he played Marth and won on Yoshi's, and game 3 he played Samus as a counterpick that didn't work, but the next 5 games were all Luigi vs Sheik, I learned the matchup is super doable as long as you aren't giving the Sheik a million opportunities to dash grab or dash attack you in neutral by jumping in the air and maintaining proper spacing eliminating the opportunity to grab/dash attack because now she will get dair'd and also by avoiding putting yourself in positions to be shield grabbed by playing more proactively. When playing against Sheik it is crucial to read the Sheik's offense and have good enough game knowledge to know what moves are available to her so you can space against her correctly and use moves like dair/bair/fair to zone her, another great move you can do is wavedashing in with a shield and when the Sheik goes for a grab or leaves herself open you jump nair out of shield and try to follow up, lastly any time the Sheik is off stage and isn't suspecting you to go out there, you can surprise her with a slide-off bair hitting her with the tip of the hitbox before she up-b's and take stocks from super early and hold ledge and roll up which can be a pivotal point in any game. Enjoy the VoD and let me know what you think.
