Sure Sheik is your main, but who's your Low Tier?

Wow, it looks like most Sheiks have Pika and Mew2 as low tier alts, followed by Ness and the Links. I know this is bumping, but this was too interesting to not get involved in.
^^ Funnily enough, my low tier alts are all of these chars plus Kirby minus G&W and Mew2
Well, I think Link (not YL) has some things that make fighting Peach much easier. His projectiles effectively shut down her float-camping, and he can take advantage of opportunities to kill w/ nair and stuff, unlike YL.
Lolz, should have said "inb4 Armada does anything interesting w/ YL." XD
I think D tier is the beginning of the low tiers. it's in the second row on the tier list, which is supposed to denote unviability. Basically, anything below Samus is low tier.

Why don't we have Sheilda on out tier list like Brawl has on theirs? Not saying we should do everything that Brawl players do, but I think it makes sense for those who like to use both regularly.

We banned Metaknight, and we did that before the Brawl community did. That's the only similarity we are going to share with them.

I like to mess around with Young Link every now and again. Not so much, though.

GaW and Y.Link.

I started using GaW recently. Before that I hadn't been playing with any low tiers for quite a while.

So many people use Pika but no one really uses Pichu. Now why's that?

Pichu sucks.
Pikachu is kinda decent.
That'd be the main reason.

I thought the main topic of this discussion was the characters we use that suck. None of these chars have anything on Sheik, so I think one character doing absolutely horrible shouldn't really matter. It's all about what you like. No one likes Pichu?!?

Well, you asked why many people use Pika over Pichu...

No one wants to use a char w/ two taunts..... (._.)

See, see! Kirby but not Pichu! (>.<) On a serious note, are there any chars who can take care of MUs that are bad or annoying for Sheik (I'm guessing this is only Spacees)?

Oh I do find pichu to be awesome, but I also find him way more useless than GaW. I can't do **** with pichu, lol.

I fail to see how... Pichu can combo up the ***. That uair is PAL Sheik material and usmash, nair, and dair are so nice. And 2 frames of lag on upB so he has more mobility when recovering. He can duck under more stuff than Pika so he can fake out stuff w/ crouch and punish w/ SUPER disjointed usmash. Sure it takes him a little while to kill and sure he gets destroyed before the match has even truly begun, but that just brings on the challenge.
Edit: inb4 someone gets mad at me for continuing to bring the topic of discussion back to Pichu

if Pichu is boring you're using him wrong.

I low tier Zelda and Ness.
With all of this low tier talk, there should be a low tier side tourney one of these days. :/

its a male pichu .-.
it doesn't have spikey ears.
Pichu isn't bad. everybody else is just good.

Fair enough, trivia I was un-aware of.

Good and bad are relative. By everybody else being good, Pichu is bad by definition.

I've always used Ness as my low tier, as he was my first main. He's a lot of fun, and the reactions to people who get yo-yo glitched are the best!

My low tier is Ness. Really fun character :D

YOUNG LINK CAUSE HES GOOD. If he had more kills moves he'd be higher on the tier list.

Swag.
Who are we kidding? We're talking about low tiers here! If we really wanted to win, we'd just play Sheik all the time and never deviate (thus rendering this entire thread moot).... or he has different preferences than you.
... like winning.
As I said, these are LOW TIERS! Bad's the name of the game!
If Pichu had more kill moves, he'd be higher on the tier list.
