Chainthrow any character you can, which I'm pretty sure is most characters in the game. And a bunch of your moves combo well into the Fair (your primary kill move), such as dash attack, down throw, d-tilt, and dAir, among others.

Bibbed has it pretty much covered...Keep your grab game up as you can chaingrab and kill from it.
Dash-dance to keep stay unpredictable. Wavedashing too of course
Needle grabbing would be a new thing to learn (Needling as you fall then getting a grab in during their stun either from them hit or them sheilding)
Your tilts are great..but don't overspam them, you need to get that f-air in before they get away.
Against lighter foes or really hard to kill horizontal foes like peach or jiggs, focus on landing a high placed u-air to kill them easily.

grab a lot
dthrow leads into tilts or more grabs and dthrows or fairs on every character. If you can't chaingrab, you can fair or tilt after a throw. if you can't do that they are either at a high percent or they fall too quickly, in which case you can tech chase.
needles help a lot. learn to needle cancel and needle grab.
fair and dsmash are the best horizontal killers and uair and usmash are good vertical killers. learn when to use each.
sheik is one of the most abuse-able character but that doesn't mean you don't have to think. stay unpredictable and play smart.
in serious matches, play as "gay" as you can.

The perfect way to use Sheik is to let her attacks flow again and again like a river of attacks
Do Chain Grab as needed, Needle( everything having to do with it), and learn when to attack and when to wait. For example... you can't go to violent on a crazy Peach, bc you can end up with high damage or out of the stage. Wait for errors and when that happens dont give any space and time to opponents.
Break defenses with double kick(Side A) and use the Z grab combos if needed.

Sheik....
I recomend you to be very, very fast and accurate in all your attacks. And when you go offensive, let your attacks flow like a river. Grab alot so you can have possibilities of starting combos and chain grabs[not all players can be chain grabed well].
If your opponent is playing "defensive" use the Side A which does the double kick to break his defense, or the Down A to do the brake dance.
I recomend you to learn 'tech' and 'wavedash' to reach a good level. Use the Ground Dodge ( L or R Down ) to evade fast attacks received.
'Needle Storm', always apply it to battle, because it can be very helpful in a intense battle.
To cancel it, press L, R , or Z.
