[[Image:OoT Sheik PM.png|thumb|right|Sheik's Ocarina of Time Costume in Project M 3.5]]
'''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. <!--tier position paragraph-->

==Attributes==
<!--attributes paragraph-->

===Changes from ''Melee'' to PM===

====Attributes====
*{{buff|Retains both [[crawl]] and [[wall cling]] abilities from ''Brawl''.}}

====Ground Attacks====
*{{buff|Rapid jab is much faster and better at racking up damage.}}
*{{buff|Up tilt deals slightly more damage.}}
*{{buff|Forward smash deals slightly higher damage and no longer has a hitbox that sends foes behind.}}
**{{nerf|It now has less KO potential.}}

====Throws====
*{{buff|Forward and back throw do more damage while back throw ends sooner and has less knockback scaling along with a lower angle, allowing for easier follow-ups.}}
*{{buff|Down throw's animation happens much faster, giving the opponent less time to react with appropriate [[DI]].}}
*{{nerf|Down throw has been altered to have an angle between her PAL d-throw and her NTSC d-throw. This makes it easier to DI out of the move's trajectory, depriving Sheik of guaranteed follow-ups that she had in the NTSC version of ''Melee''.}}

====Special moves====
*{{buff|[[Needle Storm|Needles]] can deal maximum damage when fully charged even when closer-up.}}
*{{nerf|Needles' hurtboxes were removed, so they can no longer block disproportionaly stronger [[projectile]]s, worsening their defensive capabilities. They are no longer [[Priority|transcendent]], so projectiles can still hit them out of the air, but this also means physical attacks can clank them out.}}
*{{buff|[[Chain]] comes out and can be canceled quicker, making it see more practical use. In addition to this, ''Brawl''{{'}}s mechanics having blessed the Chain with the drag maneuver allow the hitboxes to refresh very quickly when it is maneuvered with a repeated 2323_2121 motion with the chain flat along the ground; this can deal a great amount of damage in very little time, especially if opponents dare attempt to [[crouch cancel]] their way out of it.}}
*{{nerf|Unlike in ''Melee'', the Chain's hitboxes are unable to clank out projectiles. The electric tipper hit also cannot hit aerial targets, so the effective range is reduced somewhat against opponents in the air.}}
*{{buff|[[Vanish]] now deals more damage and stronger horizontal knockback, being even stronger than in ''Brawl''.}}

==Revisions==
===v2.1===
*{{change|Sheik's recovery A.I has been improved}}
*{{change|Sheik's wavedash animation now properly matches Melee}}

===v2.5b===
*{{buff|Forward-Smash damage slightly increased, hitlag is reduced, base knockback is significantly higher, and growth much lower}}
*{{buff|Forward-Smash can no longer send backwards on 2nd hit}}
*{{buff|Back-Throw releases closer to Sheik, releases slightly faster, and has less endlag}}
*{{buff|Back-Throw damage slightly increased, angle is lower, has a bit more base knockback, and significantly less growth making it combo as effectively as Down Throw}}
*{{change|Final Smash increased slightly in angle and base knockback}}
*{{change|New proper entry animation}}
*{{change|Dash-Attack animation matched to Melee}}
*{{change|Down-Smash animation adjusted to better match Melee}}
*{{change|Down-Smash IASA timing altered to match Melee}}
*{{change|Forward-Air animation slightly adjusted to match Melee}}
*{{change|Turn-Grab grab boxes more closely match the animation, also allowing her to grab very low targets}}
*{{change|Forward-Throw damage slightly increased}}
*{{change|Down-Throw releases slightly faster and has a bit more knockback growth}}
*{{change|Needles adjusted to clank close to exactly how they would be hit with hurtboxes on them in Melee}}
*{{change|Down-B graphical effects adjusted to better match the timing}}
*{{change|Final Smash uses the new Light element effect}}

===v2.6b===
*{{buff|Down-B (transform) is slightly faster}}
*{{nerf|Jab3 hitboxes reduced in size to be more even and less disjointed}}
*{{nerf|Down-B (transform) intangibility adjusted slightly and also not as interruptible as soon}}
*{{change|Entry animation polished}}
*{{change|Forward-Tilt hitlag and SDI multipliers matched to Melee}}
*{{change|Up-Tilt first hit SDI multiplier matched to Melee}}
*{{change|Turn-Grab animation shortened to match other Turn Grabs}}

===v3.5===
*{{nerf|IASA frames of Transform|1|7}}
*{{nerf|Inputs can no longer be buffered on end of midair Transform.}} 
*{{change|[[Transform]]'s Gravity has been decreased.}}
*{{change|TransN values of dash attack have been adjusted to be more similar to the Melee version.}}
*{{change|Dash attack animation ends 9 frames earlier.}}

==Moveset==
Up to date as of version 3.6.

! colspan=2| !!Name!!Damage!!Description
|-
! colspan=2 rowspan=3 | Neutral attack
| rowspan=3 | || 4%|| rowspan=3 | Two quick swipes followed by a series of short jabs.
|-
|3%
|-
|1% (loop)
|-
! colspan=2| Forward tilt
| || 7% || A quick roundhouse kick upwards. Its high speed and low knockback allows good combo ability, being able to do it repeatedly or follow up with another attack. Possibly one of Sheik's best combo starters.
|-
! colspan=2| Up tilt
| || 8% (hit 1), 4% (hit 2) || Brings her leg up and quickly brings it down. Can hit on both the upswing and downswing.
|-
! colspan=2| Down tilt
| || 8% || Quickly sweeps her leg out in front of her. Has low vertical knockback, being a pretty good combo move.
|-
! colspan=2| Dash attack
| || 10% (clean), 7% (late) || Performs a quick slash in front of her while coming to a stop. Has excellent [[juggling]] utility due to it little ending lag. Sends opponents up and behind her.
|-
! colspan=2| Forward smash
| || {{ChargedSmashDmgSSBM|6}} (hit 1), {{ChargedSmashDmgSSBM|9}} (hit 2) || Sheik kicks forward twice, trapping the enemy with the first kick and launching them with the second kick. Below-average knockback.
|-
! colspan=2| Up smash
| || {{ChargedSmashDmgSSBM|16}} (sweetspot), {{ChargedSmashDmgSSBM|13}} (sourspot) || Sheik raises her arms over her head and quickly brings them down to her sides. Powerful knockback when sweetspotted, but less powerful when sourspotted. It is also possible to hit twice with it for huge damage. Both of Sheik's arms and her head are [[intangible]] while the hitboxes are active.
|-
! colspan=2| Down smash
| || {{ChargedSmashDmgSSBM|13}} (clean), {{ChargedSmashDmgSSBM|10}} (late) || Gets on her back and does a break-dance style rotation. Can hit twice.
|-
! colspan=2| Neutral aerial
| || 14% (clean sweetspot), 10% (clean sourspot), 9% (late) || Kicks forward with one leg. Has [[sex kick]] properties. Can KO opponents offstage at high percentages.
|-
! colspan=2| Forward aerial
| || 13% || Leans forward and quickly slashes downwards. Great finisher/edgeguarder with high knockback, and very deadly move offstage against characters with poor recovery. Can potentially be done against an opponent repeatedly if the player maneuvers correctly.
|-
! colspan=2| Back aerial
| || 14%/10% (clean right foot/leg), 8% (clean left leg), 10%/9% (late right foot/leg), 7%/6% (late left leg/body) || Kicks backward with her right leg. Has sex kick properties. Can KO opponents near the edge at around 140%.
|-
! colspan=2| Up aerial
| || 12% (clean), 9% (late) || Does a quick screwdriver kick upwards.
|-
! colspan=2| Down aerial
| || 11% || Performs a downwards kick that has long ending lag.
<!--Grab aerial-->
|-
! colspan=2| Grab
| || &mdash; ||
|-
! colspan=2| Pummel
| || 3% || Hits opponent with her left elbow.
|-
! colspan=2| Forward throw
| || 8% (hit), 2% (throw) || Launches her opponent forward with low horizontal knockback and hitstun. 
|-
! colspan=2| Back throw
| || 6% (hit), 2% (throw) || Throws her opponent behind and kicks them away. Better knockback and hitstun than f-throw but otherwise weak.
|-
! colspan=2| Up throw
| || 6% (hit), 2% (throw) || Flips upside-down and kicks her opponent upwards with both of her feet.
|-
! colspan=2| Down throw
| || 5% (hit), 3% (throw) || Throws her opponent on the ground, then performs an axe-kick knocking the opponent up into the air. Can reliably [[chain grab]] or [[tech chase]] many characters to high percentages, with a reliable KO option being a u-smash. 
|-
! colspan=2| Floor attack (front) 
| || 6% || Gets up and kicks in front and back of herself. 
|-
! colspan=2| Floor attack (back)
| || 6% || Gets up and punches in front and back of herself. 
|-
! colspan=2| Floor attack (trip)
| || 5% || Gets up and kicks in front and back of herself.
|-
! colspan=2| Edge attack (fast)
| || 8% || Kicks back on the stage. 
|-
! colspan=2| Edge attack (slow)
| || 8% (body), 9% (arm) || Slowly does a similar attack to her fast ledge attack, except she goes knee first and thus the move has far less range. 
|-
! colspan=2| Neutral special
| [[Needle Storm]] || 3% (per needle) (18% maximum) || Charges up needles, which can be fired by releasing the [[B button]]. The charge can be saved by pressing the shield button, and continued by pressing B again. They are quick to charge, travel fast and far when thrown, can cut through or stop most other projectiles in the game, and also have high hitstun and low knockback, making them good for distracting foes. They can even [[edgeguard]] characters easily and effectively. If used in the air, they travel roughly 45 degrees to the ground.
|-
! colspan=2| Side special
| [[Chain]] || 3% (chain), 5% (tip) || Pulls out a long metal chain and whips it around (controllable with the [[control stick]]). Does minor damage to opponents, and has an [[electric]] effect at the tip of the chain. Has high ending lag.
|-
! colspan=2| Up special
| [[Vanish]] || 15% || Vanishes into the air, then reappears further in one direction, which can be controlled with the control stick. It does not travel as far as Zelda's [[Farore's Wind]], though if Sheik is above the ledge and far away from the stage, transforming into Zelda to get back to the stage is possible, but this should only be done if Vanish absolutely can't make it to the stage. 
|-
! colspan=2| Down special
| [[Transform]] || &mdash; || Transforms into [[Zelda_(PM)|Zelda]]. 
|-
! colspan=2| Final Smash
| [[Light Arrow]] || 3% (hit 1), 45% (Light Arrow 1st opponent), 33% (2nd opponent), 25% (3rd opponent) || Sheik pulls out a large magical bow and light arrow which she fires in a straight, horizontal line across the stage. It can strike multiple opponents, but the damage decreases for each successive target. Launches opponents at a [[semi-spike]] angle.

==Trivia==
*Due to issues restoring the Chain's mechanics to those of ''Melee'', the [[Chain Jacket glitch]] from ''Brawl'' still remains in ''Project M''.
*Two players can use the same costume for Sheik (and Zelda) as long as one chooses Zelda and the other chooses Sheik with the corresponding palette swap (i.e. default costumes or team colors). This is likely an oversight as a result of being able to choose Zelda and Sheik separately. Upon exiting the results screen and going back to the character select screen, one of the character portraits will use a different palette swap instead.
