Isn't he retired?

Also, I'm bad.

Right now it's basically Drephen. KDJ would probably be on there if he played seriously for like a month or two and decided he liked Sheik more than Fox.

Amsah (Nihonjin) and Adam (A-D) are Europes best Sheik players.
There are quite a few recent videos of both.
PAL tho.

I pretty much went all Sheik my last tournament, except for one counterpick where they made me go to corneria, and I picked Fox against WA like an idiot, I should have known it was gonna be a ditto, I wish I'd gone ICs lol their uair camping on the fin is pretty decent and one grab anywhere on the stage would do 50-80% easy.

I'm the best Sheik in Canada out of 1 Sheik.

That's like winning the Special Olympics as the lowest seeded competitor because the rest of the competition died of cancer.

I am a misfit. I'm born with all of it. The ****ing ultimate of love inside the atom split.

But yeah I suck.

I'm going to get good though, you all wait. Warrior spirit, etc. Man, Canada is so fail with our stereotypes. Dogy messaged me poking fun at me recommending Brinstar as a level because he apparently remembered me saying that "Not all of Canada likes Brinstar" and I don't even like Brinstar, it's just that Sheik's probably okay there in an objective sense, and then it occurred to me that Kage and Vwins both counterpicked me and RaynEX there in tournament, and those matches were recorded, whereas despite many tournaments passing with relative Brinstar-free stage picks, because they weren't recorded, the world will never know that Canada's Brinstar fetish is a myth.

Seriously, the music is good there but then it's like ugh. Lava to dumb combo or edgeguard that was supposed to kill him not killing him.

Wow, that wasn't supposed to be that long.

Because she's boring.

Not really, but she's not as exciting and requires fewer buttons than the space animals and it's common knowledge that every ritalin-doping adolescent just wants to push buttons and watch people explode in bright blue electric explosions.

That and Fox is better.

I tried really hard to believe Sheik was the best, but honestly I think a Fox that doesn't mess up is just too good.

Having said that, I haven't fought too many of those yet, but the ones I did play were horrifying experiences. I'm aware I'm not even close to them, but god **** is he hard to punish. Hell forget punishing, god**** is he hard to freaking hit.

Though I hate my lack of Sheik brethren here in Canada, I couldn't move to Europe.

I couldn't live without my beloved chain grab.

I hate trying to hit fox with sheik, its like he was designed to not be hit by any of sheik's moves except fair if he is stupid, or dash attack which doesn't help at low percents T.T

Techchasing is a lot more fun than chaingrabs
I like tech chasing too, but we get to do that vs spacies and falcon anyways

I prefer chain grabbing in an inescapable fashion.
It makes me feel manly.
Especially since those floaty bastards don't get combo'd bad enough already by marth and fo.... wait nvm ^_^

I don't hold regular smashfests because of school johns.

If you're looking for stuff like that you might wanna ask NY since someone is bound to play on a day.
