It started with you claiming that Sheik beats ICs who don't grab.
you can actually create situation where diddy and popo have trouble using nanas though. :)

pika just go zelda till you are above the chain percent and then kill him. everything about pika screams combo me to sheik.

I think ICs are far worse than pika. I actually think pika is managable to an extent. You have to run like a pansy though.

Sheik ***** pikachu. Just dont get grabbed before 50. I mean you could just go to Smashville and never get off the moving platform. A smart pikachu will strike it though lol.

@ankoku I meant that if you avoid getting grabbed vs ICs they dont beat us nearly as bad.

HAHA i see what ya did thar!!!!! lol

also <3's strategy is best honestly. You can try and avoid pika til 50% but unless you are comfortable combating pika up close without getting grabbed its a losing battle.

Think about if you got on smashvilles moving platform. You are attempting to stay there til you are above 50%. However if pika realizes this he can just uair you once to get the lead then just wait below you. You can't force pika to approach without a % lead so in a sense you are trying to maintain a % lead by not fighting pikachu, WHILE taking damage which just isn't reasonable. You are trying to maintain a percent lead to force him to approach while taking 50% and not fighting close until then.

Zelda is ur best bet for real.

I actually agree. As long as you have a plat, you're pretty much okay.

My problem with ICs is that I start the match by running away(i.e. hanging on a plat), then I get pressured with u-airs(twice), and then the damage starts to rack up and I panic. After I start taking like 30-40% and they're still @ 0, I start to fear I'm falling too far behind and I need to start taking risks. :\

Whenever I play nonanther pikachus (I say nonanther because I haven't played anther on smashville with the intent to stay on the plat until 50%) they take more damage than I do when they try uairing through the plat. I feel like it shouldn't go that way... But it does, perhaps due to an error between the chair and the controller. But in all honesty if you have the patience to take the game to time, the other person is likely to resume approaching. And if they don't, just chip away with needles. Or take it to like 30 seconds left and then damage rack him hard. You could even just do like 10 seconds left since he'll at most have a 40 some percent lead.

Also I'm not sure about this but I think you can punish a shielded uair with drop down fair/nair.

Every time I tried the Zelda strat vs Anther I would get thunder'd or thunder 2'd or fully charge usmashed into a follow up thunder after I transformed. My point being you have to be able to at least go even with Zelda while you are her... But if you can do that why even bother going Sheik at all?

EDIT: I looked at the frame data for pikachu Uair Is active on frames 3-8 ends on frame 27 there's a 5 frame disadvantage on Sheild for him. (7 frames added cooldown for him, 2 frames of shield stun for us) so there's 24 frames of vulnerability. I think Shield drop is like 8 frames? I don't know how fast dropping from the platform is so imma just guess 5. There's still 10 frames of vulnerability and nair comes out on frame 3, fair on frame 5. So it should be punishable. I think that's how frame data works, I'm not sure though.

no there is definitely no way to punish pikas uair on shield from above like that. falling through the plat would be like 15 frames plus whatever amount you have to fall. No way on earth

its way easier to avoid the pika grab than the IC grab IMO. nana always grabs me some how when she should be in hit stun or sheild stun she will grab be when I'm behind her and other very silly situations. If nana couldn't grab this game would be so much better.

Can't make ##### you guys........

Problems with college and very dumb policies are likely gonna force me home, which is very lame. Only way to fix is too magically come up with $520 to buy myself a month of rent and a month of time to find a good enough job to keep churning out enough $$$ to stay in Tampa. Then find excess $$$$ and time to make #####.

SO LAME!!!!!

Also.....what happened to that stage discussion thread? I was really enjoying that thread and I started practicing on all those stages so that if I get CP'ed, I feel more comfy. C'mon......enough dead Sheik boards lol. I really dunno what will spark anything though so I'm kinda contributing to the deadness. I lurk too much lol.

You guys are dumb. People post MU discussions or other threads and you guys either don't post at all or you post like a one sentence post with no substance in it. Then you guys complain about the baord being dead.

I agree with the Link ratio. Sheik absolutely destroys him.

Lucario beats SHeik rather soundly however.
