Job well done, LE. There are a couple of these I need to practice for sure, and this would be a nice place to direct my friend who is trying to pick up sheik.
Jason I really like this video and I showed it to some people looking to get into melee. Something that they noted is the lack of button inputs if that's a possibility
Thanks for making this. I've recently wanted to step up my game and start going to tournaments and what not. I'm at the point where I can take on all of my friends and almost always win (one of my friends is a bit better than me though) and I want more of a challenge. That being said, a lot of my friends are super casual and aren't very good, so I've got a lot of work to do if I want to git gud.
Hey rookie there, I can do some of these trials but I don't seem to understand the number 2: SHFF Fair autocancel. The inputs indicated in the 'How to' are: SH - FF - Fair. But it seems impossible to fair while FFing, Sheik hits the ground too fast. Does anybody knows what I'm doing wrong ? Thanks
me upon seeing double bair from ledge: Oh, c'mon, how is this more difficult than RNC? You're just bairing twice. Wait, why do I keep dying. I'm not even fastfalling accidentally anymore, why can't I get back to the ledge. This is more difficult than any of the advanced stuff, what the hell. Okay maybe not the up-b ledge cancel, because that is literally impossible, but still.
nice video! OOT memories flowing back with the music :D i'm a smash noob. might be a dumb question but is the wavedash across dreamland difficult? i can wd across FD with marth. is it something about shiek/dreamland that makes it more difficult? i ask because i probably couldn't do any of the other trials you listed :P
Marth's wavedash goes the fourth furthest in the game while Shiek's is tied for 18th with Pikachu. Also, Shiek's jump takes 4 frames to leave the ground and Marth's takes 5, so the timing is slightly different. It's probably a combination of these things. The best thing to do is practice as much as you can. Oh, also make sure you're angling the thumbstick correctly. If you're pointing it too much down you won't go as far.
Jeffrey Jiun Chen My bad, thank you for pointing this out. Apparently I was dumb when I wrote that because I found and fixed another mistake I made too. The 3 longest wavedashes are Luigi, Ice Climbers, and Mewtwo. Source: clashtournaments.com/ct-mew2kings-info-dump-super-smash-bros-melee/
Wow thanks a lot. I just read through your 10,000 Words of Power article on smashboard. You make some incredible melee content.
Job well done, LE. There are a couple of these I need to practice for sure, and this would be a nice place to direct my friend who is trying to pick up sheik.
This was very interesting !
I'm gonna spread this on french boards and hope for some more :)
Yeah bro !
I didn't know there were different lengths to the up+b!
wow, GREAT video, almost wanted to criticize the lack of explanations but whoops there it is in the description :D keep it up!!!
This is great content, I really think every character needs a similar video.
The Bowser trials will break you.
Jason I really like this video and I showed it to some people looking to get into melee. Something that they noted is the lack of button inputs if that's a possibility
Thanks Duck! Glad you're sharing. :)
The description has a "How to" for every trial.
Love it. Absolutely love it. The music, the pacing, it's just so ... idk. Homely? Amazing though def. looking forward to more. ^^
thanks. probably the most helpful melee videos on you tube.
As a Sheik main, this has been very helpful! Thanks a lot. Can't wait for the other vids. :)

Very clean resource, thanks.
Awesome guide man thanks so much
Awesome! What about Needle Grabs? I'm having a hard time learning those.
I like the idea but you should put the button inputs for the trials also
See description. Every trial has a "How to".

I have the same problem.
trial 6 still hard many years later
Make one for Captain Falcon!
guys when should you reverse needle to grab ledge and when should you vanish to ledge?
nice video! OOT memories flowing back with the music :D

I think the difficulty resides in the number of wavedashes there. You need to get optimal length on every one of them.
***** Mahiediiine TSOURIIIIAAAAAAA
BurntOutNinja second furthest? i dont think that's right :P (luigi and IC...)

You accidentally a word at about 5:54.
Still thanks for this video, gonna use this for practice!
lol oops.
I'm glad you guys like it. :)
I don't understand the autocancel part of Trial 2. What makes this different from a SHFFLed fair?
auto cancel = same lag as doing no aerials
so basically, it has a lot less lag than L-canceled aerials
I'm having trouble hitting the nair oos. Could someone go into detail on the timing for me?
Try using Z for the nair. It comes out way quicker than switching your finger from x/y to a.
Drew Giulini Also you can use the analog stick to jump (only for nair oos, otherwise x/y)
quick question: (answer back plz, it would help) but wouldn't wavedashing into an f-tilt be just as effective as pivot f-tilts or not?
I'd say pivoting is faster, but wave dashing would provide a longer range...
Anthony B wavedashing is too slow
When you say, "While channeling vanish" do you mean while she is still visible on the ground, or when she disappears?
The start of the upB, before the "poof".
what do u mean by boost grab the evade fox??
i don't get it
Training mode against fox, set him to evade in start menu.
is that you jason :o
Perfect.
trial 6 on yoshis, once i bair the first time i die before i get to jump no matter how fast i press y. why am i dying instead of jumping?
You have to really execute the timing on your jump. If you mash jump it wont work.
TheLittleEngland I don't get the point of trial 6 :/
Could you explain the reverse upB?
See description.
TheLittleEngland Oh sorry. Thank you. Great video btw!
what's the song in this?
Its just sheiks theme
are you gonna do other characters?
Absolutely, yes.
TheLittleEngland color me hype
Sheik is fucking technical !!
CharlonTank lol. Sheik is one of the least technical characters in the game.
FortWhenTeaThyme I don't think so
You're the guy that say Marth isn't technical too right ? xD
