Q&A Sheik Strategy & QnA

[DtJ Jungle]

represent yo!!!!

 

[SPAWN]

Reno is also going, how could I forget him lol. Along with Sheik (I think it's actually xyt, but I call him Sheik).

 

[DtJ Jungle]

yah theres some guy registered as Sheik

 

[Cia]

i knew you were going. i actually just wanted make post something that was somewhat.. pertinent.. lolz

but is anyone else going?? i wish tope was -_-

 

[SPAWN]

LOL. Okay. I think that's all the Sheik players going... so that's like me, you, Tec0, KK, Drephen, Reno, Sheik... and I think that's it. 7 Sheik players, **** we're going to **** RoM.

Is Episode 99 the latest out for Naruto Shippuden?

 

[Cia]

yea about naruto.

and i wish KDJ would start using his sheik again. it was so amazing. oh and M2K is another sheik. so 8

 

[Hazygoose]

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

Also, what happened to OK smash?

southwest smash...
like 8 dallas kids
kos-mos, scud, me

the end :\
arizona play with west coasties if they go OOS, and the southeast play melee but...that's like 10-17 hours away depending on where i'm headed. and f that.
southwest melee is dead. weaksauce.

 

[SPAWN]

Lol.

I have to fight Bam and Stricnyn3. Any tips vs Falco? Also, what do I counterpick them/ban. I don't know if I hate PS or FD more... Also, if they ban BF, I have no idea what to counterpick... FoD is not a good stage I've decided vs him LOL.

 

[Teczer0]

So anyone have any tips on how to fight a person thats even better than demo kirby?

 

[Cia]

who the hell is demo kirby?

stric9 is good against to sheik. so be careful. battlefield will be your best neutral. try to get it first round. (use ur stage strike if necessary) ban YS. if you should need a counterpick, let it be brinstar, or Mute City (brinstar first tho)

if you don't know how to play on those stages, you have 2 days to learn. make sure to memorize the lava patterns of brinstar as well. this will make ur follow ups really effective. :D

bam plays fox (i think) take him to FD and tech chase him. the whole time.

 

[Teczer0]

Vanz... wtf

Demo kirby won pound 4.

[SPAWN]

That demo kirby guy is pretty okay I hear.

You should go Sheik and outgay him.

Anyone have tips for a good cp vs Falco if they ban BF?

 

[Teczer0]

So....

Me vs KK....

I'm hyped =D.

Spawn I'm rooting for you to lose fast! Do the same for me

 

[Cia]

who the hell is demo kirby?

if they ban battlefield, stadium should be fine. but BF is preferred.

unless you're VaNz. then you'd prefer FD

 

[Binx]

hey guys, sheik is super good, I think shes the only reason I'll make it out of pools at genesis haha.

I played some people I havn't seen in a long time, they've been traveling lately and playing in Seattle and cali and I think the only reason I was able to beat them was by cping sheik.

 

[Spife]

I feel silly for coming to you guys, but will anyone betray drephens secrets so this lonely Link main don't get 4 stocked?
I already don't believe that Sheik counters Link. I've learned the errors of my idiot DI with cgs against banks. I'm going to make M2K (or an equally gay sheik) go homo on me at RoM before pools (Spawn, are you gay enough? We should play anyway). Oh and I know not to play Link (despite the first sentence in this paragraph).


SOoooooo....how I beat drephen? thx thx thx thx gais

but no seriously, I need what ever advice I can get x_x;

 

[Cia]

Projectile spam your *** off. don't be afraid to let the clock run out, and try you're hardest to run to keep out of grab range.

ban final destination. try to get pkmn stadium as the first level (use your stage strike if necessary) Jabs and Nairs are important. avoid laggy moves at all costs (including grabs) throw in a skrah every now and then, but be smart with it.

if you lose a match, your best counter picks would be rainbow cruise and stages with a wall. (so that you can wall tech out of the chain grab)

good luck..

 

[Spife]

I can't do RC like skler can, I was seriously considering Poke Floats, who takes that **** seriously? Plus when I was like, 13 I played that stage for 89 minutes >.>
I was gonna ban FD, letting the clock run out is a new one, I wish I were good enough to take a game cause that might actually solidify my chances of getting out of pools. I shouldn't fight him directly though is what you're saying?
I was watching some matches, and other then him ******, his approaches (almost half the time) seem to be him running up on you. I found that odd and that a jab would put him in his place. I figured not letting him do what he wants to do would be good too. Does he frustrate easy? I'd imagine not but any info can help. Really not getting 4 stocked would be a win, I'm going to encourage homo so I expect cgs.

 

[Cia]

umm, he's absurdly patient. so it's really unlikely that you'll frustrate him. In fact, it's pretty likely he will read this. so.. yeaah.

but try your best not to fight him directly. and the reason i suggested jabs is because they are quick and will kill momentum.

and yes, he will often go for running grab. so if you're in a bad situation, Nair your way out of there.

We would've all been ****ed if Sarah was the vice president.


Isnt she planning on running again? Not that anyone will put her on their ticket.

 

[soap]

naruto is sooo **** good. it's the only anime i watch :D

Naruto was the first anime ive ever watched, its kinda like my baby.

i cant get into naruto. i've tried but i just cant!

Part 1 is AMAZING... no johns.

aside from KK and teco, any other sheiks gonna be at revival this weekend??

i'd be there, but i have a different kinda tourney to go to.

good luck getting ***** spife, dont spam links amazing sidestep.

*I'm asleep >_>*
I didn't think it would work, just fishing for info.
Vanz, will you play me? I need a lot of sheik practice, drephen 4 stocking me or not.

 

[Cia]

sure, and try to use all of today to learn rainbow cruise. it can be difficult to hold a chain grab there. and i thought of floats, but sheik is just way too fast for link there. but that will kill off CG as well so do what you're comfortable with.

 

[Teczer0]

i cant get into naruto. i've tried but i just cant!

Thats because Naruto is awful .

With 8000 fillers every month.

I liked it at first, then they just stretched it out too dam much.

 

[KirbyKaze]

So....

Me vs KK....

I'm hyped =D.

Why? I'm bad you silly goose.

 

[SPAWN]

Don't worry Tec0. I'm doing the same for you as we discussed. :D

Vanz, I beat Stic9 2-0 late December. Did he get like much much better since then? Also, my Fox is pretty good. Is he bad vs Fox? Ewwww at you liking Stadium. I ban it every chance I get. Also, I didn't think yoshi's was that bad for vs'ing Falco...?

 

[KirbyKaze]

Yoshi's is awesome for Sheik in general, not just vs Falco.

The only character it sucks against is like Marth.

I'd CP it vs Falco probably if I'd used Battlefield or FoD game 1 and the other was banned.

 

[SPAWN]

I don't like FoD vs Falco, haha. Falco is too good there.

KK, does Bam use Falco still, or did he switch to Fox? Aka, in tournament who'd he use against you?

 

[KirbyKaze]

He's pretty much a Fox main at this point but he used both of them. He lost with Falco twice and then won with Fox 3 times.

 

[SPAWN]

Okay, so if I lose to his Falco then beat his Falco, would he go Fox? I really hate fighting Fox. T_T

Thanks for the info.

 

[KirbyKaze]

idk he told me he thinks fox > sheik 6 / 4 and falco = sheik so he'd probably just go fox the entire set ;/

 

[Luma]

mhh i dont like sheik vs falco on ys, imo you die too fast from a forward smash

 

[SPAWN]

T_T Thanks for the info. He's right you know.

 

[Cia]

yoshi's story vs Falco is one of the worst things ever

- You can no longer edge guard w/ needles
- drop zone aerials usually equal death
- Falco can combo really well on YS platforms
- Expect shine > shine deaths -or- Shine > Up+B deaths

Stric9 trains w/ eggm and is falco pretty **** good now. and unless you have a ton of experience as fox, i wouldn't do it. Fox/ Falco are like.. the only match ups he plays.

and i do well vs spacies there. maybe that's just because i'm wierd. i assumed you would prefer that over FoD + FD

 

[SPAWN]

I think I'll counterpick Brinstar. It's so **** good vs Falco. Also, looks like I'm going Sheik LOL.

 

[Tero.]

Sheik + Brinstar is probably the best thing to do.
KJ64 and BF are also good.

 

[Heart Break Kid]

Eww look at all the homo sheiks discussing strategy before the big tourny. Thats cute. I hope none of you make it outta pools.

Cept tec0 cuz he's NJ

I hope your fox I mean marth roy makes it out too.

EDIT: Tero - I disagree with KJ64 being good for sheik, I think its better for falco imo.
