Go read the Peach thread, you'll never complain about short off topic adventures like this one
Not only that we can go entire pages without mentioning Peach once (and yeah, I do use 40 posts per page, or whatever the maximum is), but our derails had scarcely clothed gingers before (of the male sort)... this is super tame! :D

It's pretty good. Like walking away from an argument. Or walking away into the sunset.

Sheik's walk is pretty stupid (good). I wouldn't be surprised if you could bair > walk away, and bait someone into thinking they could follow you or something.
It's almost like she's the perfect character. Oh WAIT...

Yeah, if only she had a secure way of actually hitting the spacees at lower than 30% without eating a dumb shine, tilt, or usmash other than fishing for grabs.

Any move into (walk/dash/moonwalk/wd/jump away) *****..

ya I generally dash away, or jump
but walks let you tilt AS you're doing it, and you can basically buffer a walk, whereas a dash you need to time with ending lag
just seems incredibly ****, but I've never really used it

LMFAO Toph that was too good.
Space bair and walk away as they jump OOS asking to be punished.
Why is this game so simple and so complicated. MY BRAIN

Just took first at a Project M tournament. Never realized how stupid-easy tech chasing was in that game with Sheik.

No easier than in this game...
I know. That's what I don't understand...

Perhaps you just relieved yourself from a mental block by tricking your brain into thinking that it was 'playing a new game'?

Hey there were also some scarcely clothed gingers of the female sort (not nearly as many)Go read the Peach thread, you'll never complain about short off topic adventures like this one

I like gingers but they can be so hit or miss.

I don't know anything about Sheik, but is it possible that Sheik is crouching the standing grabs because the standing grab is higher than the running grab, and Sheik may crouch lower when you first hit in crouch. Puff can dodge more attacks in the first ~12 frames of her crouch, because after that window expires she wiggles and her hurtbox raises up, Sheik's crouch might work similar.
Sheik is interesting.
I don't ****ing get it.
I can read like, ANYONE elses tech's except this ONE ****ing guy.

Well, ideally, techs should be completely random so you can't actually "read" them. You 'reading' a tech is probably just you observing patterns of what someone does when put in a specific situation.

React you ******.
He just does weird **** like DI'ing behind me and then rolling past me every time.
He's the only person that can get it to work on me.

So much this.
If he DIs behind you in NTSC it leads into a true combo, I believe (utilt/ftilt/dsmash).

We're talking about tech chases, not combos.

Fox/Falco.

I dunno what to tell you. The tech rolls have never seemed difficult to me.
bubbaking
Smash Hero
Falco's isn't that bad, but Fox's techroll is actually quite long and fast, and if you screw up even a little, you eat a shine combo.
I either eat a shine, or he sidesteps.
I feel like there's nothing I can do after a downthrow. I can't go for another regrab, and I can go and attack either.
I'm just really dumb and bad with Sheik I guess.

Well, you're acting too late. You can definitely regrab him, you just need to go after him with more confidence in your TC ability, I think. Of course, you can also go for attacks, which are easier. Which attacks did you try to use? Sheik's DA is a really lenient TC tool.
Dash attack, nair, fair, dsmash.
Nothing ever hits.

Yeah....just focus on reacting more. And if you can't get there in time, don't go for it and instead put yourself in a good position.
Reacting is the key.

Shrouded's advice is good. Ideally, you want to react and optimise your tech chase, but if you know you've taken too long then just try to maintain your control. Sheik is kinda good when she's got control.
