Matchup Rediscussion: Zelda vs Peach

[Kataefi]

Also! I'm just curious that sometimes Sheik's Usmash doesn't send them upwards but often in a very horizontal angle allowing them to survive even at supposed kill percents - is this the opponent just DIing it or is the Usmash not fully sweetspotted or whatever it's called?

Sheik's Usmash has two different hitboxes. The tipper (the "sweetspot") that hits when her hands are together above her head (frame 11) and the sourspot that hits when she brings her hands down (frame 13).

The sweetspot sends them directly upward when not DI'ed and can be DI'ed to about 30 degrees away from vertical. The sourspot sends them diagonally away at about a 45 degree angle and can be DI'ed to go almost horizontal if the opponent chooses.

So to answer your question, you're probably seeing the sourspotted Usmash when they get almost purely horizontal knockback.

I can give out Peach practice on wifi for those that want it. I need to get use to this match up once again. it's one of the few marches I forgot how to handle.

I can do both. I think I got shiek down. But a lil review could not hurt.

[Brinzy]

Any Peach players wanna play my Zelda? Hopefully by the end of it we can iron out the clear-cut things about this matchup for good.

Doesn't really matter who wins or loses, and as such I don't care about your playing skill.

 

[JigglyZelda003]

i'll play you sometime SoR. make sure you come hungry though because there will be plenty of turnips to go around

Ocho should be an expert on this matchup soon, we play it almost daily

 

[Brinzy]

Sometime, you say? How about now?
