This is the official Sheik 1.1.4 patch thread. Discuss all suspected and confirmed changes here. This isn't for simple speculation, and irrelevant or whiny posts can and will be infracted.

It's looking like the only change was a slight reduction in her weight.

I take that back

Uair's damage is reduced by 1%, which definitely means knockback values are changed... don't know how much tho.

_Tree _Tree plz add that fancy 'Official' tag.

When Nairo played in Japan he stated he didn't notice any changes to our ninja. Heres hoping.
Use this for pre patch info. I'd open the tab before they edit the site so that all the info IS pre-patch.
We'll probably only get rough % info from comparing moves, but remember to check all our tech (C-bouncing, INC, basically go through the compendium checking all the tech).
Keep an eye on @Thinkaman for the changes list for the whole cast also.

Double post :O
My game is pre-patch, and it deals 7% damage. Deals 8% on bowser jr. when you hit is upper half. Maybe that's what kurogane had :p

This guy claims Sheik got some difference: https://mobile.twitter.com/ShinyQuagsire/status/695089014114660354
I think we will get something almost not relevant.
Needles are the same ?
Bouncing Fish is the same?
I think it's everything alright.
Maybe we can't kill with Fair at all now or something like this ...
This just means that SOMETHING about Sheik changed. Other than landing lag or mobility changes (both of which would have been found by now, aka she's probably untouched in that department) the changes to Sheik could be literally anything.

Just to prove my point, one of the previous patches had one modification ZSS that ended up being a slight change to the animation when she lands on the stage with her rocket boots before the game actually starts.

Could it be something that affects her competitive play, yes, but it could also be something that has no effect.

Guys you're officially bottom tier now thanks to the new nerf and so are the other top tier waifus :rosalina::4zss:. All 3 of you got...a -1 point nerf to your weight so you're only slightly lighter now.

Well, that's the only confirmed change to Sheik right now at least but I don't think anything else is changed.

I think the top 3 are perfectly balanced now.

Seriously?

"Sir, Sheik seems to have some of the best frame date, one of the best recoveries, the best projectile in the game, and she appears to be dominating top 8 in tournaments consistently. What should we do?"

"meh, lower her weight by 1. that should do it"

I think at this point all Shiek mains are safe.

I love how every time we don't get nerfed all the low tier heroes come to complain in our boards, as if that would help.

I know sarcasm is hard to detect online, but do i have to make it even more obvious?

We're sick of you getting carried, and now that the dev team supposedly just had their fingers in their asses instead of making the necessary adjustments, we have the right to complain.

No, you don't.
So, this thread already ran out of it's way entirely, right? No more changes? Nothing more the be said regarding the thing this thread was for?

Isn't it bizarre that some people think complaining about something will change it? I can't even imagine that some people would think like that...

Thankfully this is the last big patch, meaning no more of these pest attracting threads. Good hustle.

To all the Sheik haters, yes, we know our character's broken.

And we love it.
