I.B knows what I'm talking about LOL.

I would say to only use projectiles, but that wouldn't really prove anything.

What are some of sheik's better options when:

I am standing under a platform and my opponent is on top of the platform. For the sake of more direction in answer, assume my opponent is under some lag, like after it's up-B. If your recomendation is different for low-mid-high %'s please specify.

Utilt while they're shielding is pretty good. It's really hard for them to get out of it and they usually mess up and get hit by the utilt. If you have enough time dair is pretty good because it combos at all percents, if not, just upair.

depends what stage. varies between utilt/usmash or waveland on platform to dair/grab/w.e :)

If it's a low, low FoD platform, U-smash often knocks them off with the strong hit into the weaker hit. Alternatively, do U-tilt.

If it's a low Yoshi's / PS platform, U-tilt. Or SHFFL Uair, I suppose, but U-tilt is better IMO for comboing harder.

If it's a high Battlefield / Dreamland platform, then SHFFL Uair, SH Bair / Fair, or waveland grab.

But you could do about 50000 other things and have them be situationally superior to those so don't feel limited.

Magic Bullet was always my favorite
We can have a nice cheese blend in 1, 2, 3 seconds, perfect for quessadillas!
I liked them so much I have their number on my phone.
One time, I called them and held the phone up to the TV and hoped I'd win a prize.

That's not wierd, right?

There's no such thing as winning tournies without cringing of gayness. You should know that Alexander.

Also, what happened to OK smash?

Right now I'm watching Soul Eater. It's incredible. Before that I caught up on Naruto and bleach since I stopped watching them a year ago because I was tired of fillers LOL.
