Base game appearance	Brawl

Sheik is a playable character in the Brawl mod Project M.

Attributes

Changes from Melee to PM

• Retains crawl and wall cling from Brawl.
• Brawl mechanics have blessed the Chain with the drag maneuver, which allows the hitboxes to refresh very quickly when the chain 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 the opponent dare attempts to crouch cancel their way out of it.
• Down throw's animation happens much faster.
• Vanish has stronger knockback and damage, being even stronger than in Brawl.
• Needles can no longer block disproportionaly stronger projectiles, but can still be hit out of the air, done by removing the Needles' hurtboxes and allowing the hitboxes to clang.
• 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.
• 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.
