grab works beeter because you can get more out of it, and it covers the foxes wavedash out of shield if they do so

Sometimes I Dsmash and they DI all of it in.

Then fall onto the edge again anyway.

Its hilarious.

really it depends on %... if they are at the % where dair will knock them up to combo % then i will dair.. if they are below i grab to get the %. i dont find a point in grabbing when they are already at combo % because then you have to rely on the tech chase when dair will already get them in the air for the combos



of course this is all assuming our aerial barrage doesnt beat them off the stage anyway ;-)


@swag i do the dair on reaction to their roll, another situation=another response but oftentimes you can bait the roll for sure

That doesn't typically work, it works if the fox is slightly late.

Also, try nair. I think its slightly faster, and the closer they are the harder it hits lol

i di the throw as back as possible, so the bair is good because it has that range. i think its been working because the foxes ive played are not prepared for the di so they folow up late and get hit by it........

wihch, i just realized ... is what you just siad =3

and i have alot of time to get my bair out so speed dosent matter

i was referring to out of my own grabs... i dont have a problem with fox grabbing me, but realistically there is no way to get out of a uthrow-->bair combo if done correctly by fox

@hayley no :( tristate is the region that doesnt allow me to go to their **** because of hax/m2ks nonstop bull**** lol

Fox u-throw bair works 100% of the time on sheik until about 170% give or take. If they suck at basic 2-step combos though then yeah you can get out of it and nair/bair/dj are your best options. But if they don't suck then there's nothing you can do about it except hope they try to do risky stuff rather than guaranteed combos.

I like dash attacking stuff so if they're at combo percent I'd probably do that instead of dair but dair is clearly a good option because it gives you stuff that dash attack cannot. It's also less laggy. Being less laggy is a good thing. If you can read a roll (or preemptively cover it) then you can do whatever though and it'll work. I've up smashed them before (numerous times) just because.

Man, there's nothing to talk about regarding Sheik. I wish we had an extra 80 moveslots like Fox.

Okay so get him out of low percent with grab, aerials, a full set of needles, d-smash (if you can make it multi-hit), or up tilt (if he's directly above you). Then at like 30% you can f-tilt and knock him over and do grab or dash attack or whatever combos until he dies. Dash attack is also good at 30%.

By doing not grab moves you'll get him to block so then you mix up grab.

Dash dance grab is also effective, as is aerial > grab, and needles > grab. Up tilt > grab is amazing at low percents if they jump above you a lot. Comboing into grab is really good.

I recorded myself talking about the nuances of the Falco MU (wound up being like 40 mins, although there were a lot of pauses) and wrote probably 1/3 of it.
