Do you mean shield grab? If the Falco l-cancels it right, Sheik can't grab him. But shield wd backwards helps. ^_^

sheik has the same standing grab speed as peach

as do falcon, doc, falco, fox, ganondorf, ice climbers, jigglypuff, kirby, mario, marth. G&W, mewtwo, pichu, pikachu, and roy

all 7 frames and all tied for fastest standing grab

peach and ICs have the fastest dash grab (7 frames as well) with sheik coming in second (8)

and no you can't really grab a falco out of a pillar if he's doing it right

Actually, you can, but you need amazing reflexes or timing, because you have about a 6-frame window to do the shieldgrab in, and depending on whether the person does an early, late, or perfect pillar, the timing window is going to be at a different place each time.

u really shouldnt try to grab, but if u notice the falco isnt doing it right, then go for it.
