Sheik (SSB4)/Forward tilt

Overview
Sheik does a quick round kick in front of herself. It is very weak only dealing 4% and having low base knockback although it has high knockback scaling. Considering that forward tilt was not only her best move in Brawl but also one of the best tilts in the entire game, it was considerably nerfed in almost every way having less range, more ending lag and significantly less combo potential no longer being able to excessively chain into itself at mid percents into a guaranteed up smash for a KO. Despite this, forward tilt is still a very useful move having solid combo potential being able to chain into itself at lower percents and being able to lead into aerials at higher percents. It also works extremely well when combined with perfect pivoting making it a strong approach tool. Overall, while the move is less oppressive than it once was, it is still a very useful move in Sheik's kit being one of her best attacks on the ground.
