Okay, I saw a video on this a week or so ago, and figured it was all over smashboards already. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qUhS8RQrOU4&feature=response_watch The set up is simple: The Ftilt to Footstool to Fastfalled Bair that has been a staple in Sheik games for months. However, until...

No, Toon Link's DAir only spikes during the "Stall" portion of the attack. Once he starts to fall it launches them up and away. The only "safe" way to use it is right on the edge of the stage, stabbing someone who misses the edge in the head.

If you feel diversity is not important, then I greatly pity you. I'd really hate to play a version of Brawl where it becomes simply "whoever is better at playing MK wins". If you have ever played something else that involves bans, you would see that diversity is one of the main reasons that bans...

In Melee, there were actually some Dair combos that could be done. I'm pretty sure I've seen high-level Sheik players chain 3-4 of them in a row by Shuffling them, due to its low Knockback, but L-canceling is necessary due to the landing lag. However, I don't think this is necessary in Brawl...

Actually, I believe it is the first hit of Sheik's Utilt that knocks downward. This is intended to keep the opponent in the move for both hits, but for some reason it is exaggerated lower down on Sheik's body. I've gotten this a couple times on a recovering Captain Falcon who missed the edge...

Pit is a very one-dimensional character. His projectile is quite good, probably one of the best in the game, but everything else he has just does not measure up. His aerials are all laggy (fair/bair/dair) or largely ineffective (Nair/uair, which do a little damage and have basically zero combo...

So.... I'm kind of surprised both Yoshi and Jiggs fell, given that both have been lauded as having a decent potential against MK. Also, all these tiers and their letterings are kind of meh. It should probably be like this: Top Tier Meta Knight 15.00 Snake 13.91 Falco 13.03 King Dedede...

Captain Falcon is definitely an Aerial-based character. His only real usable options on the ground are Jab and Grab (and Jab usually leads to Grab), with MAYBE the occasional Falcon Kick, Dash Attack, or Down-Tilt. In the Air, he's got his best move (Uair), and the rest of his aerials are solid...

The "Randomness" is about on par with the randomness in MANY legitimate counterpick stages, including things like Halberd (which I actually have on as a "neutral" at home). The infinite-possibility is countered by the "dangerously close edge". If you try to abuse one, you WILL get the other...

1) This is your only valid point, and should be looked in to. However, the argument has been "in order to get your opponent in a position where you can infinite them, you have to put yourself right at the very edge of the stage. They're just as likely to kill you at a low percentage as you are...

The things I see here (and I'm not too experienced with this matchup, so this is pretty much just theoretical): Kirby's Fthrow to Uair chaingrab can get an easy 40% on Sheik at 0. Kirby's Bair beats out anything aerially Sheik can do and basically cannot be punished if spaced well. Kirby is...

This list is missing Kirby's Fthrow to Uair to Regrab. Works against Heavies and Fastfallers I think, not sure what the actual list is.

Sheik: Prediction, Particularly in Continuing Combos - Sheik does only one thing well, and that thing is hit the opponent over and over again. Since her moves all require a very high percentage to be effective KO moves, she needs to seriously rack up the damage in order to land a KO. In order to...

Video? This could be a potentially game-making discovery. New L-cancel anyone? Does it work with all aerials?

Sheik versus Mario: Pro Sheik: Sheik has insanely good combo options. Even if Mario isn't ultra-vulnerable to Ftilt locking, an Ftilt still almost always means a second one and then a Utilt. Sheik has superior range with most of her options. Sheik has a superior projectile. Sheik's...
