'''Sheik''' is a playable character in the ''[[Brawl]]'' mod ''[[Project M]]''. She has been reverted to her powerful ''Melee'' version with some additional minor buffs. She ranks 7th out of 41, at the bottom of the A tier, on the current [[Project M#Tier list|official]] [[tier list]]. She roughly places the same as her 5th place position in ''Melee'' and a significant improvement over her position on the ''Brawl'' tier list, where she ranks 25th out of 38. She maintains the same placement in the ''Project+'' {{h2|Project+|official tier list}}, now within the A+ tier.

*{{buff|Forward smash's second hit deals decreased knockback (50 (base)/70 (scaling) → 65/58) and sends at a different angle ([[Sakurai angle|361°]] → 58°), allowing it to combo into her aerials reliably.}}

*{{buff|Forward throw deals more damage (8% → 10%).}}

*{{buff|Back throw deals more damage (7% → 8%).}}

*{{buff|Sheik releases opponents earlier from back throw (frame 20 → 16) and it has less ending lag (FAF 48 → 32).}}

*{{buff|Back throw has altered knockback (40 (base), 140 (scaling) → 70/75) along with a higher angle (135° → 62°), allowing for easier follow-ups when combined with its decreased ending lag.}}

*{{buff|Sheik releases opponents earlier from up throw (frame 23 → 20) and it has less ending lag (FAF 58 → 55) making it harder to DI (although it does not have greater followup potential).}}

*{{buff|Sheik releases opponents much earlier from down throw (frame 36 → 14) and it has less ending lag (FAF 58 → 36) making it much harder to DI.}}

*{{nerf|Down throw launches opponents at a lower angle (80° → 62°) and it has increased knockback scaling (50 → 65), depriving Sheik of many guaranteed follow-ups that she had in the NTSC version of ''Melee''.}}
