Recently one of my opponents has taken up Marth as a main, so during our matches I took the action that any fellow Sheik main would, dtilt -> ftilt lock to around 50 and from there try some needles, and Jab Cancel combos, but I cant seem to get a second f-tilt off nor follow up a jab cancel with anything because Marth's counter nullifies that, and so does the Dolphin Slash. ![Frown :( :(](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
But the point is that I would like to know some strategies that maybe some fellow Sheik players have developed to counter Marth. As we all know, Sheik has a general disadvantage against Marth because of out-ranged and out-prioritized aerials that he posesses.
Despite my greivances against this Martha scum, I beat my friend most of the time on all stages excluding battlefield (Maybe because of more experience with my character). But all I've got is to use flurry of jabs and needles to a decent %:
1. Then try to pressure f-air off the screen far enough so he cant get back -> tether recovery -> use invincibility frames to gimp and escape stage spike.
2. Zelda swap after a knockback. (And don't tell me I should have started the match with her, this is under Sheik discussion ya know
.
3. Dominate with up+B![Lick :lick: :lick:](/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/lick.gif)
All help is much appreciated!
