Q&A Sheik Strategy & QnA

[Salevits]

It's stupid. This game has been around for like.. over a 10 years now..

 

[soap]

i don't fastfall

tap down lightly

 

[L__]

I tap away instead of down

 

[omgwtfToph]

wat

real G's fastfall and just jump as soon as possible

 

[soap]

I do jump as soon as possible, there are just consistently less sd's that way

real g's are either dead, or behind the scenes making real money

 

[L__]

well i fudge up my wavelands onto the stage less than other people and it looks smoother than lots of peoples

so IM GOOD

 

[unknown522]

[L__]

[omgwtfToph]

LOL I love it when Unknown says "What a guy."

And "True"

 

[unknown522]

Lol. True

 

[john!]

my favorites are when he uses a post to confirm what kirbykaze just said

it's like he's kk's hype man

 

[unknown522]

Who? Me?

 

[silentSWAG]

yo kk u going to review some stuff with me from big house
i dont like the matches that got recorded ( sort of embarrassing ) but you can critque them any ways

 

[KirbyKaze]

I can take a look

Which ones are most pressing?

 

[silentSWAG]

depressing or impressive

 

[omgwtfToph]

silentswag, "pressing" means "urgent." He's asking you which video you want him to watch the most

 

[silentSWAG]

oh thank you toph.

[stabbedbyanipple]

this post *****!

 

[KirbyKaze]

Why isn't Peach in this set?

Because she just isn't comboed by it? Her gravity is more than those three so she doesn't pop out of throw as high at low percents (especially if she DIs away). You can get it on her at KO percents, though.

 

[soap]

ya it's ***** crazy how gravity can affect people differently in the melee universe

start looking for the u-tilt in techchases on falcon over 40-50ish on no DI/di in. Specifically at 4:54. You dropped that techchase and the u-tilt leads to easy follow ups.

Same with looking for upsmash/d-smash in techchases. At mid-high percents good falcon's mix in no tech more often because it is more difficult to follow up, as shown by when you double jabbed and scar spot dodged your grab in game one, and in game 2 rolled out and d-tilted to get out. If you were looking for no-tech and upsmashed him or d-smashed in just one of those situations you likely could have finished. Another solution to some of falcon's mixups on no tech is jab > ftilt.

Damn man you had game two. That supposed-to-be downsmash turned into SD is the worst. You just dropped a few tech chases that cost you the match.

 

[silentSWAG]

i dont like to tech chase dsmash but i guess i could use usmash
i always knew about dab-ftilt
but completely forgot about during the set

 

[joejoe22802]

Anyone experiment with using Sheiks fair in the same way as falcons like when he runs out to counter the over shot attack? Any pros cons?

 

[omgwtfToph]

I didn't know what the overshot attack was so I googled "overshot."

Oh.

 

[joejoe22802]

Aite bro. When they space an attack behind you to counter a dd away or Wd back. also you going to kings?

 

[omgwtfToph]

Yeah absolutely, you can SH in a defensive manner that lets you react to and counter potential approaches with fair/bair on the way down. Sheik's SH puts her at a very good height to do this.

I'm going to KoC yeah. Do you know who BoscoMan is? Supposedly he's housing me but I don't know his phone number or anything.

 

[joejoe22802]

My bad I meant to say dair, it just autocorrected. No idea about Bosco though.

 

[unknown522]

Bosco man invited me to the tourney, but the flight costs too much

 

[TheCrimsonBlur]

I'm going to KoC yeah. Do you know who BoscoMan is? Supposedly he's housing me but I don't know his phone number or anything.

I'll PM you his number

Bosco is a cool guy. New player, eager to learn. Doc main.

 

[Kaffei]

ok so I was playing vs Nintendude ICs and he was ****** me ez pz
He said that whenever I tried to empty hop fair he can just WD> utilt.
What do I do ? space better? or not jump so predictably? would be easier if i had a video but i dont record anything lol

 

[omgwtfToph]

empty... hop... fair?

between the empty hop aerials and the running out to counter the overshot attack, the sheik boards are hella confusing to read D:

 

[joejoe22802]

Gotta stretch that imagination and reading comprehension. MM at kings?

 

[omgwtfToph]

>_>

and

kk let's do it

 

[L__]

totally thought you meant something else when you said "kk lets do it"

 

[Wenbobular]

I didn't want to say it

 

[omgwtfToph]

LOL ALVIN please don't say things like that

 

[Salevits]

Yo, KK

how do you input your ledgedashes?

I sound like a little KK fanboy for asking this but it's just that mine aren't consistent and you always think your stuff so throughoutly.
