Sheik (SSB4)

Line 15:

'''Sheik''' ({{ja|シーク}}, ''Sheik'') returns as a playable fighter in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''. She was confirmed during the ''Super Smash Bros.'' Direct on April 8th, 2014, a day before the Australian releases of ''The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures'' and ''The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap''. Jun Mizusawa, who is also the voice actress for {{SSB4|Zelda}}, reprises her role as Sheik, albeit via recycled voice clips from ''Brawl''.

Sheik holds the distinction of ranking 1st on the ''SSB4'' [[tier list]], as one of three characters in the S tier alongside {{SSB4|Zero Suit Samus}} and {{SSB4|Rosalina & Luma}}, a striking improvement from 25th place out of 38 characters in ''Brawl'' and her best tier placement to date. While not as overwhelmingly dominant as {{SSBB|Meta Knight}} in ''Brawl'', Sheik is near-universally considered the best competitive character in ''Smash 4'' due to her extremely fast and safe attacks. In addition to her combo strings, Sheik has gained formidable killing tools in her up aerial and her new down special [[Bouncing Fish]]. If played correctly, nearly everything she does is near-unpunishable, giving her an unrivaled [[neutral game]]. This is supplemented by an excellent projectile in [[Needle Storm]]; its speed and [[transcendent priority]] allow Sheik to [[outcamp]] almost every other character in the game and make her all the more difficult to [[approach]]. While most of her moves generally deal very low damage and knockback, this is compensated by her strong combo ability, and even if she fails to pull off a KO setup, her advantages mean that she can afford to KO later than other characters. Sheik has the tournament results to match her reputation, being used by many top players and achieving notable competitive success as a main or secondary to many top players. However, Sheik would go on to receive notable nerfs in update [[1.1.5]], while the current tier list reflects the [[1.1.3]] metagame, leaving players to drop her in favor of characters that weren't nerfed as hard, most commonly {{SSB4|Bayonetta}}, and is no longer considered the best character in the game..
