There really is no limit on how well you can become with a character.

There is always room for improvement.

It is your decision, but I think you should think about this. ;)

i hate and love you guys....

i just don't know yet

Well, you should definitely have a secondary for impossible matchups like Peach, even if you don't end up quitting ICs all together.

And I would disagree with Dikastis Shok about "no limit". Sheik is a far superior character to the ICs, and I think that you'll find success with her so long as you can adapt to her play style.

It would suck to lose another IC main, but you gotta do what's best for you. Good luck in whatever decision you make!

some characters are inherently better than others.

that doesnt mean should should quit your main and sell out.
why not just second sheik or just play both chars?
no need to outright quit ic's

I play ICs because they are my favorite, but I honestly don't believe they are *that* good, the can do some AMAZING things and they are certainly up there, but compared to the Ownage 4 there isn't much anyone can do. I really enjoy the matches I play as ICs but there are some people/characters I definitely would try not to use them against.

Welcome to the dark side of the force.

In the long run, the light side beats us. But in the short term, we kick ass, get hookers and blow, and rake in the money.

:devil:

Actually I lied in the long term we still win because we have Sheik.

Actually Sheik is very easy to transition into from IC.

You WD oos a lot.

You grab a lot.

Only, now your aerials are ALL super ridiculous, ALL your pressure stuff works EXACTLY how you want it to (spacing and timing required), and your tilts are super busted as hell. And your grabs still kill half the cast in one hit, and has the potential to kill 3 of the best characters in a hit provided you know what to do afterwards perfectly!

Sheik is the answer. Accept no substitutes.

Marth and Fox and Falco are all acceptable substitutes.

I created cancer.

And AIDS.

And atm I'm working on breeding them together.

Beating Falcon is just a matter of kicking him in the jaw five hundred times with a spanimal or Sheik and then watching him die because he keeps trying to get back onto the level but you keep kicking him.

Laughing at them is also a very important part of beating Falcon. The ultimate humiliation of being kicked to death by a transexual ninja overrides his manliness and renders his electrifying avian race-car powers useless.
