Punishing sheik's down smash is already a difficult thing to punish out of shield, but the real problem is how often it shield stabs me. Also it really benefits puff to put sheik's into sticky situations where you try to bait out a crouched-grab, jab, or something of the sort but if they downsmash you just get punished and lose your great situation. Any advice, or good out of shield punishes against it?
