Sheik (SSBM)/Back aerial

Overview

Hitbox duration of Sheik's back aerial.

Sheik does a quick kick behind herself. The move has decent range and fast startup. It is useful for edgeguarding, and is potentially rather powerful if the sweetspot hits (located at the foot). If the move is timed so that the weak part hits, it can heavily extend combos, being interchangeable with forward tilts and forward aerials to rack up high damage. An excellent walling option and typically very effective as an air-to-air.
