ThreeSided
Smash Ace
I've always heard about how much this one is in Sheik's favor but I'm having some trouble. Sheik's needles no longer go through missiles like they did in melee so Samus has the superior projectile game, which forces me to approach. Once I'm in I can get a grab or tilt pretty easily but I can't combo her well at all because she's so damned floaty, and even often get punished for trying to follow some things up. Juggling is a pain because she has so much control with the bomb jump coming down, so landing the Uair kill to take advantage of her floatiness isn't nearly as easy as it look. Gimping wasn't too hard at first, but once my opponent caught on he was able to recover in such a way that I couldn't safely reach him with Bair coming from the ledge, and using needles was not quite so simple. On top of it all, she's such a weird combination of heavy and floaty that even once I get her to kill percents, she goes too high off of my hits for me to actually combo into a kill move, so I'm forced to read and suddenly I'm doing a heck of a lot worse.
Any tips? This one has really been getting on my nerves.
