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

Overview

Sheik dashes forward and slashes with her knife. If she catches anyone, the Sheikah eye symbol will appear onscreen, and she will proceed to slice in many directions, before finally launching the trapped opponents.

Origin

While this move does not pull from any Zelda game, the Sheikah eye represents the Sheikah clan, of which Sheik is a part.

Notably, Sheik has carried a dagger on her person in previous Smash games, but has never used it in her moveset; ironically, such dagger is absent outside of this Final Smash in Ultimate The dagger resembles the Eightfold Longblade from The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild.
