Discounting CPU's and online, Ike. Out of all the people I play offline with, he is easiest to combo, granted none of us main, say, DK or Ganon, but still, Ike seems easiest. Especially since fr me anyway, Ike is a good mtchup for both Sheik and Zelda, and I switch for the KO alot.

People with either Ganon or Bowser body types.

Ganon: Snake, Link, Captain Falcon, Ike.
Bowser: Donkey Kong, DeDeDe.

ike, there are others but he is definetly one of those characters that doesnt require zelda to finish at all, unlike rob >_>

i don't use zelda to finish rob, i just edge guard until he runs out of gas which gives me ko's at as low as whenever i can hit him off -___-

g&w, i can combo him pretty easily until 80% where i can transform and get a kill

My favorite opponent with sheik is Ice Climbers, because it's so much of a challenge and it's such good practice for avoiding grabs.

My favorites for when I feel like having an easy win: Fox, Wolf, Captain Falcon (Fair gimps his recovery so bad it makes me feel bad).

snake

lool my friend's snake isn't that great, but it is still fun tossing the top tier guy around :D

it is satisfying watching myself accidentally die at like 50% to a snake fsmash, but then come back and proceed to **** him to oblivion.

Snake for sure. I love the matchup as both sides have some heavy strengths against each other. Sheik can combo and juggle Snake fairly easily, and the needles cause all sorts of problems for him. Snake on the otherhand... has F-Tilt and U-Tilt to KO Sheik at like... 90% :( Heh. Great challenge and a fairly even matchup overall.

rob's make a habit of going over me and use nair whenever I get near them to prevent me from attacking them whenever I get a first edgeguard as sheik. which leads to me grabbing, hitting them off and the process repeats until i just give up transform to zelda and smash/lightening kick/u-air him to the point of no return

The Ganons I face aren't punching bags >.> He is easy to gimp though. I feel bad gimping Ganon... he'd be such an alright character without such a crappy recovery.

I love sparring with Captain Falcons and ZSS. Something about the tights.

1 - Marth. he seems to have a lot of ways around Sheik's usual tricks, so playing him tends to expand my game and make me work on my spacing and on edge recoveries, since his edge game is so crazy.

2 - Snake. Something about fighting a Snake just makes me think smarter and play better, plus there's always that added bonus when you beat them, that you can beat an S-Rank character with a C-Rank character.

3 - Metaknight. I have an excuse to lose.

I can't really say character wise, but player specific someone who knows what they're doing, makes me think more. finally feeling a sense of enjoyment even the heat of battle.

Snake. If I get completely owned I can either john about his broken hitboxes or if he plays campy, i can blame his grenades and mines.

Complete seriousness though, I like fighting a good Marth. It's a good challenge to watch your spacing and practice your gimping ability to win. Fighting a good Marth helps me do better against a lot of characters after constant practice.
