I will update the boxes after hearing what you guys have to say about the matchup, and what we can all agree upon. I will be making these posts here on SmashBoards every week with a new matchup, so make sure to follow the Smash 4 DK threads, and come share your thoughts on the matchups.

Also... how do I make it so my quotes aren't automatically italicized? (makes it look way uglier lol)

Sheik is one of the easiest characters to Ding Dong in the cast, so that's something. She honestly has to be careful offstage against DK too. Obviously, DK loses neutral, but he's going to kill Sheik far earlier than vice versa. So with any heavy vs Sheik, it's about biding your time and playing smart, and abusing DK's great damage racking and ability to live and abuse rage. I have little experience in this MU so I cannot really pin it down, but these are my thoughts on it so far.

Good stages seem to be Lylat, Dreamland, and Town and City? I would personally ban FD and Smashville. She loves Smashville, and without platforms I struggle to deal with needles significantly more.

I'd say the matchup revolves around finding your few solid punishes and capitalizing upon the early kill potential we have on characters like sheik.
