So in training mode I discovered a combo that involves some bnb but it's a zero to death on my friend's little mac but he doesn't know how to DI properly. It involves Sheik's chaingrab explained in this video by Deku Tree (_ Tree) http://smashboards.com/members/_tree.269991/

I'll explain the combo since I don't have an delgato capture doodad to record my wii u.
Do the chaingrab until 36% which is the last time you can grab him and then fthrow to fair to double jump to fair to bouncing fish, any tips for this combo would help a lot!

yeah it's DI-able alright. Just DI up and away/away and it should work fine. That combo (fthrow to double fairs to bouncing fish starting at 36%) shouldn't work /that/ well.

Considering the fact that the chaingrab has yet to be proven true (I bet Mac can turnaroung jab you (frame 1 jab...)) (what we know so far is that you can get out of it with a invulnerable move (marths Up-B eg works pretty decent) it's already save to say it's escapable. In addition, Fair combo are most of the time not even combos (or shoudn't be). If you Fair autocancel BF at low percent it is a true (as i believe) but in the air it shoudn't be. Fair is 34 frames long and BF hits on frame 19, so I don't think a fair will deal almost a second of knockback. I could be wrong.

yeah if you are able to get the chaingrab up to that percent on an opponent, you should be going for ftiltx2 FH fair> fair ff> BF. That is guaranteed on majority if not all the cast if you a) FH into the opponent when u hit them with fair so they fly the shortest distance possible relative to you b) you have to buffer the jump for the BF. As @ Wasserwipf Wasserwipf has stated, fair will not combo into BF if you are still airbone.

at the end of it all the chaingrab isnt guaranteed. However, sheik has a ton of early strings that can get u to that golden percent where the combo i mentioned about is a true combo.
