Newfoundland Canada Smash 4 Power Rankings: http://prntscr.com/9s6bk8

It seems to me that Cloud in his current state has a LOT of opportunities to make tech chase scenarios in Smash 4, almost reminiscent of Melee Sheik. It feels like someone with good Tech Chase ability can use D-Throw, F-Throw and N-Air to tech chase faster fallers and heavier characters all the...

Ah okay, didn't lab any of it, just a quick thought, thanks for clearing it up

Could low percent f-tilt into f-smash, regrab/bf/f-tilt/f-air work, seems like low-percent f-smash has lots of options

Melee's skill cap is definitely higher than Smash 4's, and even after a decade nobody's come near reaching it, so I doubt it. Eventually people will near the Sm4sh skill ceiling and hype will die down a lot, that won't happen with melee.

So I'm at this point where I can efficiently do most forms of tech, my combo game isn't going to get much better, etc. etc. The problem is that I feel like I've been at this point and unable to improve from here. When I get a hit I extend it as far as I can and with my character (Sheik) I feel...

I've been searching around but am struggling to find some kind of list of combos for Sheik that aren't some form of "f-throw into f-air string", "f-throw into bouncing fish" or "d-throw into aerial", if it isn't some of these it's some combination of them all. So, what are some more advanced or...

This is really interesting, I've never heard of it before and seems like it could be super useful for mix-ups and to confuse your opponent.

Wow, this just about covers all of my questions on Sheik and OoS play. I'll edit the original post to contain this. Thanks a ton!

Hey, I've been having some trouble figuring out the best OoS options for sheik, I understand Nair out of shield is a good option, but at what OoS options are the best in what scenarios? If this gets any good answers I'll put them in the thread starter. From a couple posts down the thread:

It's pretty much entirely preference, I personally use C-Stick for all aerials (besides Nair of course) because that's what feels the most comfortable to me. But you do you, whatever works best for you.

Pivot Needle's are super useful, you can PP into Needle and immediately cancel to change directions from a dash with VERY little lag, great for mix-ups or extending combos.

I would argue that it's about 70:30 in Sheiks favour, Sheik's superior frame data and combo game just wins, It's also much easier to chain move's as Sheik due to Dedede's size and weight. The only thing Dedede can do is zone with Gordo and try to space well, due to having better range. Although...

According to the Rolling SmashWiki page, Captain Falcon's roll invincibility frames are 4-17 and 27, then you have lag until 31, in those 10 frames you can definitely consistently hit Falcon with the back of your neutral B as Ike.
