Side Special + Grab: Sheik Combo

[Mazdamaxsti]

Something I have been practicing. It isnt the best combo starter, considering the amount of time Burst Grenade takes, and you can just grab, but hear me out. If this is known, be gentle, I'm new to the forums :/

So even at low percents, Burst Grenade launches, not far, but it does launch. Before they launch, run up and grab. They take the damage, but dont launch away. This can get some damage if you bread + butter (Dgrab +Bair/ Nair/Sair) and can rack some percents.

Maybe you can do the "run off Nade cancel" (Where you jump off the side and do your grenade, then grab the ledge) and grab dair combo, but I haven't tried it. Tell me if I'm wrong and I'll fix it.

Hmm, I'll try this out. Interesting concepts.

I've been testing this for a while today, and i cant quite get it. I'm not sure if its because i'm new to competitive smash and i'm not yet fast enough, or its not very plausible. I'm leaning more toward my playing, but in the middle of a match, there might just be too many variables on how the opponent will react. If they do decide to shield, however, i can see this being a very effective combo starter.

True, like I said at the beginning, if they get pulled in to the bomb it can be done, but getting that can be difficult. Once I get a video camera I can record myself doing it.

This works at any %. If you do a dash-and-grab right as the grenade is going off you might catch them right as they blast away. I've done it at like 150% and it looks hilarious. It's a good tactic because it punishes them as well for trying to shield the grenade. You can also chain grenades with bouncing fish.
