Or another sheik. Then you can switch back and forth quicker thanks to character being loaded and you have one that kills one that edge guards.

Or MK since MK is everyone's best partner because MK is argueably the best character. *Nodd*

Zelda:
Kills, while Sheik racks.
Projectile passes through partners, so both Sheik and Zelda can use projectiles if Zelda is behind Sheik.
Zelda can become Sheik quickly, Sheik can become Zelda quickly.
Sheik juggles in the air, Zelda juggles from the ground. (think about how that works).

Or MK or Snake, just because they equal win.

I'd think the best partner would be one with a high kill potential. Someone Like Ike, Zelda, Falcon, Ganon, Bowser, DK, Pika, etc. Sheik is just great at racking up damage, but lags when it comes to kill power. If combined with someone who is great at killing but lacks good damage-racking abilities, it could be a force to be reconed with.

MK is a good partner for Shiek, but certainly not the best, especially with Friendly Fire on. Mach Tornado can't discriminate between friend and foe, reducing its chaotic usefulness in packed fights. Also, both characters share the same weaknesses of being light and lacking Low-% KO moves.

I'm sure you remember our experiences with doubles before, right?

meta is a very strong partner for anyone since he can reactively execute kill moves without putting too much thought into when in where the opponent can go his kill moves just come out that fast in the air or on the ground.

I like teaming with people who play slower mains though. Nothing beats dtilt to giant punch, nothing.
