Who is your favorite Sheik player in the world?

[peyudosmith]

This is sort of a poll thread to know people's opinion on who was the best Sheik in the past and who is your favorite Sheik nowadays. You can answer both, but make sure you give good arguments on who is your favorite Sheik.

The main choices in the poll are the following but you can state another player, just give your opinion and your reasons (don't post things like 'I AM the best Sheik in the world' or so, let's be serious):

· Amsah - Netherlands
· Captain Jack - Japan
· Drephen - USA
· Isai - USA
· KoreanDJ - USA
· Mew2King - USA
· Over - Spain

Who was the best? Who is the best right now?

 

[Lawrencelot]

My favorite Sheik player is Adam (NL). Although he is worse than Amsah, I can't understand a thing Amsah does, to me it looks like he beats everyone with magic, Adam looks cooler and flashier and I like his pressuring style. Ice (DE) is a close second for me, he learns so fast. Over I don't know, he is not an awesome sheik but he is an awesome player, with his insane DI and such, so I like him more as a player in general. I don't like NTSC sheiks.

As for who's the best sheik, I think it's Amsah. But I don't know why, he just beats everyone.

Add tope to the main choices

edit: and teczero

 

[Nihonjin]

I can't understand a thing Amsah does, to me it looks like he beats everyone with magic

For some reason that made me laugh

 

[Wish]

wahaha that killed me.. x__x
Amsah is my fav Sheik in the world of course..because he's magical. o____o

 

[rhan]

Tope. He can say ***** in a room filled with black people and get away with it.

 

[Kira-]

mango is the best sheik. you guys dont know lol

 

[-ACE-]

was just going to put .......... in regard to that last post but i forgot it was on ace's account.

[InterimOfZeal]

Old Isai vids made me pick up Sheik (back when they were new).

Forward's Sheik was good back in the day. It moved like a spider.

Omar (AZ) has a pretty good Sheik, but he doesn't play cheap enough.

In person? Forward was the most fun to watch.

Video-wise, though, Isai still makes me happy to watch. KDJ, too, but everyone knows about his Sheik.

 

[Fortress | Sveet]

i think plank has a really sexy sheik.

devil ray chun is good but plain gay

 

[Devil Ray]

only a couple of those guys "main" sheik, but it's a good list.

lol @ sveet, my sheik is only gay on weekends

 

[Plairnkk]

my sheik does cool things

but sometimes i get carried away with it and dont do basic drephen things. XD

 

[peyudosmith]

the list could be larger, of course

I simply stated the best from every part of the world IMO

Ice and especially Adam are so good too, you're right lawrencelot

as for mango, well everybody knows he's good no matter the character, that's why I didn't care

I think Tope is good but not as much as the other people on the main list, same for plairnkk

@devilray: your avatar is so good XDD

 

[Zoler]

dumb question, Amsah!!!!

 

[St. Viers]

kdj is my favorite sheik player, and was the best, back when he played.

I'd say that prolly M2K is now, but that's just EC bias--I'd need to watch more vids of Amsah before I answer that.

 

[Julio_TFP]

I like Overtriforce style with Sheik. Is my favourite Sheik, but if we think what Sheik is better (talking with mindgame, techniques...) M2K.

 

[AnDaLe]

M2k's sheik ledge camps a lot. Drephen's Sheik is pretty nifty./

 

[♡ⓛⓞⓥⓔ♡]

I like Over the best, his Spanish and powershielding is sexy ^^

 

[Mind Trick]

This thread needs more Adam, flashiest sheik ever.

Either Amsah or M2K has the best one atm.

 

[Talvi]

I like M2K's the best, probably because he is very flashy, but maybe Overtriforce from Spain has an even better edgeguard (no kidding here, just check some videos).

 

[peyudosmith]

I guess we would have a great time watching M2K vs Amsah, I've never ever seen Amsah lose a set on Sheik ditto since he lost to Captain Jack many years ago.

so maybe Pound 4?

Over will definitely be there.

KDJ coming back to the scene would be the greatest thing ever D:

 

[HiIH]

My favorite Sheik player is the one that doesn't play Sheik the most.

 

[DtJ Jungle]

Amsah, Reno, Teczero, Vanz.


In that order.


EC ftw?

 

[Kira-]

does anyone from EC care about Socal videos?

seems like they don't really watch our stuff at all

 

[Plairnkk]

i watch them, i just think you're pretty mediocre so i dont comment.

SOMETIMES ITS BETTER TO NOT KNOW?

=p

junglefever, amsah is the only good sheik u listed there

[Tope]

[CanISmash]

the fact that tope isn't on the list is blasphemy, someone obviously has never seen tope chasing.

You don't like my sheik? =(

Hey just cuz I use fox vs you doesn't mean I'm ALL about my fox

<333 Plank

 

[DtJ Jungle]

It's more about their style that I enjoy watching

I watch you and Tope alot too. Mainly because I need to learn how to be gayer.

 

[Teczer0]

I guess while I'm at it I might as well post my favs. *sigh*

Plank, Tope, Forward, Vanz, and Junglefever(Stop SDing scrub) .

Fun fact: Plank is fun to watch. He even makes brawl mildly entertaining.

*Goes to watch Plank vs dapuffster*

 

[crismas]

KDJ's Shiek is my fav! Seriously, because he can do anything and it works XD too good.

 

[Teczer0]
