Silly, Useless Sheik Tech that you all gotta learn how to do for giggles

Sup Sheik board, you guys still alive and kicking? Good (or bad, i couldn't really hear your answer). Anyways, here's a fun little bit of tech that I "*Discovered*" and thought you guys should know about. In this video I do it on FD and FoD, but it also works on Pokemon and Dreamland, but I'll let you guys test those on your own People have previously brought up the phenomenon of Sheiks needles hitting people and then knocking you to ledge, but I guess we could talk about that here too because it plays a big role in this silly tech. But anyway, lemme know what y'all think.

Could it perhaps be used in teams for edge guarding / preventing the teammate from helping? And the wall jump with jump is actually pretty good as you, as demonstrated, get 2 fairs or nairs. Not useless, but but amazing either.

Nice! Obviously not really practical but pretty funny and interesting, good stuff dude!

is this what it took for sheik to finally have a winning matchup against fox again

Haha nice one! I have never seen that tech before. I wonder what else can be done.
You should be able to fast fall too.

 

[Str8Bustr]

You could probably throw a stack while they're advancing on you while you're at ledge, wall jump, instant double jump, and try and land a back air

 

[Rollic]

For those who are wondering, this will only work if your needles are completely charged. Can confirm i just tested it out (on FD).
Looks like it could create some fun banter in teams and could even be used legitimately for edgeguards, thanks for sharing lol.

If it worked on yoshi's you could hit the shy guys.

 

[Marcus Ellis]

It doesn't work with the shy guys because they don't make the combo counter go up, and that's what makes you slide back. But yeah, you could definitely fast fall it, and also use it for just the swaggiest teams edge guard. I think I'll try both

Here's why this happens:

https://www.reddit.com/r/SSBM/comments/3yxahw/ssbms_antiground_infinite_combo_count_physics/

When you hit someone with a combo count > 5, your character starts getting pushed back 0.025 meleemeters/frame. This is why you need all 6 needles to set this up. So this would only really be useful in doubles, where you could shoot one person and then walljump fair the other person.

Does this work with hitting the ShyGuys?
