It's good in terms of skill, but later in the match, you got a little repetitive, and therefore predictable. Which was punished several times by the R.O.B..

Additionally, your f-tilt locking is good, but you don't seem to be very good at following it up.

Thanx kage me, I hadnt used sheik in a while. Thats why I was kinda rusty and repetitive. And i noticed I also rolled a lot. Ill get a better vid soon.

You did well for being off for a long time, just keep practicing until you get comfortable with sheik again.

Nice Sheik, a little predictable, but still good, to switch it up use more down tilts and NAIRS and you'll be much less predictable, and dont do the foward grab so much it's easy to DI and counter out of once done, try the back and down grabs

Your sheik is rather good considering you do not use her much. Other then what has been already mentioned you should consider hoping less as a approch. During the 2nd and 3rd stock the ROB player took advantage of your hoping aproch attempts

Ugh... I hate this matchup. Sheik vs. R.O.B: Gimping the ungimpable. At 0:28 You charged Sheik's forward smash [I also realized I had forgotten what Sheik's charging fsmash animation looks like]. Bad bad bad. He missed a really good chance to punish. Really other than that besides the short Zelda fiasco, you started getting read like a book. Expect every one of your whiffs to be punished with a Down Smash or a Grab. In other words if you ever miss an attack near R.O.B. get the hell out of there...R.O.B.'s have a tendency to stale their Down Smash, but it's still mean. Also like you said, stop rolling so much. And by rolling I mean spot dodging.
