    Game and Watch tech: is the Dash Attack Cancel Grab changing the meta?

    It has its niche uses. Definitely a mixup, but you have to be kinda close to them and usually a regular grab/jc grab would do the trick just fine.

    Sheik run off stage turn around needle cancel instant ledge grab.

    Well it is a hard excercise that'll help you have better understanding of the analog zones and improve consistency for the rest of your game. If you're at a level where your game is needed to be adjusted to be more frame tight seems like a good way of practicing to go about it.

    Sheik run off stage turn around needle cancel instant ledge grab.

    Actually just put some more time into it tonight and am already seeing great results :3. It has a kind of natural feeling to it once you get it down.

    Sheik run off stage turn around needle cancel instant ledge grab.

    It's certainly not easy >.> I've already put many many hours into getting me needle turn arounds tight and I can still barely do this with any semblance of consistency. At the very least though it does make things like pivoting feel easier as you get better control of the stick. Thanks for the...

    Sheik run off stage turn around needle cancel instant ledge grab.

    Characters are too slow if you just watch them and jump away down b from them its very easy to get out without getting hit :P. Its a similar idea to how mango double jumped fire fox vs armada on fd to wear out armadas invincibility.

    Marth Matchup: FD as an actual counterpick?

    :| You guys hate fd against marth? Stage is fine, the neutral is all about dash dancing anyways you never want to be above marth on a platform. Dreamland is better, but fd is a fine stage for sheik. It is a toss up if fod or fd are better to go to once dreamland is used/banned, but just gauge...

    Yes, I think against some characters like puff and peach it's not bad to turn into Zelda if you're about to die to maintain your full needle charge if you have one

    Official Sheik Match Video Critiquing Thread

    Hey guys I finally got a clip, I would love to hear your critic of my sheik. Match was pretty damn sloppy, I flubbed a bunch of edgeguards I feel like I'd normally hit and I made a lot way too commital options in neutral like down smash and nair that were just unnecessary. Anyways, thanks for...
