Sheikah Dance

Sheikah Dance (, Dusk Dance) is 's Final Smash in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. It replaces Light Arrow from Super Smash Bros. Brawl and Super Smash Bros. 4.

Overview
Sheik brandishes her dagger, then she dashes forward and slashes. If she catches anyone, the Sheikah eye symbol will appear onscreen, and the screen will darken and obscure the stage and fighters. She will proceed to follow up the first slash with a kick, an upward slash, a palm thrust, and an axe kick. She then appears behind the opponent and performs an upward slash, followed by a kick, a knifehand strike, and a downwards slash. She then flips back over to the front of the opponent and attacks with an outward slash, followed by an inward slash, a kick, a punch, 2 more kicks, and a slash. Afterwards, she appears behind the opponent again, and delivers a final powerful slash which launches them the opposite direction she was traveling, triggering a different camera angle in 1v1 battles. The final slash can hit bystanders.

Origin
While this move does not pull directly from any particular Zelda game, the Sheikah eye symbol represents the clan, which Princess Zelda claims to belong to while in the Sheik persona. In official artwork for The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, Sheik is depicted fighting various monsters with a dagger alongside Link, but in the actual game she is not depicted fighting in any capacity. Sheik uses kunai daggers for her basic attack string in , in which she uses a highly acrobatic fighting style that involves attacking the same enemy from multiple angles, which may have inspired this Final Smash.

Notably, Sheik has carried a dagger on her person in previous Smash games, but has never used it in her moveset; ironically, any such dagger is absent outside of this Final Smash in Ultimate. The dagger somewhat resembles the Sheikah-made and  from The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, though it is not a perfect match for either.
