Announced at [[E3]] 2001, '''Sheik''' ({{ja|シーク|Shīku}}, ''Sheik'') is a [[starter character]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''. She transforms from {{SSBM|Zelda}} by using her [[down special move]] ([[Transform]]), and can transform back. By holding the "A" button at the stage loading screen, Zelda will automatically transform into Sheik at the start of a match.

Jun Mizusawa reprises her role as Sheik from ''Ocarina of Time'' in the game.


She used to be first on the ''Melee'' tier list until the eighth version of it, where {{SSBM|Fox}} took top spot, and has continued to hold it. Sheik currently ranks 4th on the tier list, in the S tier primarily due to her [[chain throw]] on many of the lower tier characters, excellent combos, a great finisher in her forward air, a very good approach due to fast aerials and high jumps, and one of the best edgeguarding games in ''Melee''. Sheik, however, suffers from a relatively short and predictable recovery, vulnerability to comboing, as well as a rather short but quick wavedash. She also is relatively weak to crouch canceling.
