Shield dropping allows your character to hit an opponent on the platform with an aerial out of shield. SH Nair out of shield is a commonly used option with Sheik, and is very viable, but Bair, Fair, and Uair can all also be used out of shield on a platform by using a shield drop. To help...

Smash DIing the shine hard left or right is a way to get out, but is hard af cause the timing is super tight. Otherwise, if the player is good enough, there really is no escape from pillaring, no matter your DI. As JNova said though, DI'ing left or right is your best bet.

Sounds like some of you are having a difficult time with the inputs, I've found a pretty easy way to get it consistently. Pressing your grab button in the air with a turnip in hand throws it for you, so you can input whatever your grab button is for the airdodge, then press it again + down...

His dair is a spike if you hit with both hits, if you only hit with the second it doesn't do much knockback. You pretty much need to be right on top of them for it to spike (think Ganon/Captain Falcon's old nipple spike)

Thanks for the like on my post on the Sheik boards homie! Loving the updates to the pack, you're doing a great job of making the Melee community easier to get into.

Sheik has an enormous amount of options when coming off the ledge. I wanted to share what a lot of these look like so new Sheiks and old can easily see all the tools they have at their disposal. None of these were done with TAS, I simply performed these with a controller and then paused, meaning...

Experiment with not approaching at all. Wavedash back or dodge by some other means when the opponent approaches and punish. It seems backwards, but you will get in more hits that way. Once you've learned how your opponent likes to approach, utilize his openings to approach. You can't just...

Just fine. He only kneeds one move after all.

YUSSSSSS It's about time. Just wish he had magic.

Definitely disappointed. Pillaring just opened up so many options for Falco.

Duck Hunt just doesn't feel right, it's the name of the game not the character. I mean we don't call Link "The Legend of Zelda."

Ice himself said he felt like to win with Sheik he would have to play in a sort of "gay" way. I wish I could find the interview, but I just can't. He was talking about beating an Ice Climbers player in grand finals with Fox though, that's why he mentioned it. I don't agree with him, but even...

Try edge guarding her up b after she has completed the animation, not while she's jumping. She has many invinciblity frames during her up b and it can difficult to hit her offstage. Waiting until she's in helpless fall or landed on the stage allows for an easy punish. You can force her into a...

I always really liked the Winners Semis match between Kirbykaze and Eggm at ROM. Kaze uses picturesque spacing and tech chasing, and it's an excellent example of how Sheik should deal with Fox as well. I would link, but Smashboards won't let me link without 10 posts. Just google "eggm kirbykaze"...

I press and x and then z for the nair, makes it a heck of a lot easier. You should be able to feel the timing after just a short time if you try z.
