Sheik is ranked 4th out of 54 on the [[tier list]], placing her at the top of the A tier, and making her the highest ranked ''The Legend of Zelda'' character in the game. This is a significant improvement over her mid-tier placement in ''Brawl'', where she was ranked 25th out of 38. While not as dominant as {{SSBB|Meta Knight}} in ''Brawl'', the sheer effectiveness of Sheik's moveset saw her almost universally perceived as the best character in the early metagame of ''SSB4''. Sheik's extremely fast frame data grants her an excellent neutral game and a potent combo game, which are supplemented by [[Needle Storm]] and her improved grab game, respectively. Her KO potential has also improved: up aerial now consists of multiple hits and concludes with a very strong hit, while her new down special move, [[Bouncing Fish]], deals respectable damage and has high knockback scaling. Lastly, the combination of Sheik's much faster [[air speed]], Bouncing Fish's horizontal travel distance, and the removal of [[edge-hogging]] have greatly improved her [[recovery]].
