Super Smash Bros. Brawl/Sheik

Zelda's more aggressive form from Melee has returned, more powerful than before.

For many of the advanced strategies regarding Zelda/Sheik, many players turn to Sheik but that doesn't mean Zelda isn't a good fighter too; they are different and attract different types of people with different playing styles.

When using Sheik, try to store as many needles as possible, they usually aren't used to actually attack, more like defend, they can distract people, destroy projectiles that are about to hit you…the list goes on.
