Chain

The chain is straight when first unraveled.

The chain being used as a tether recovery.

Chain is Sheik's side special move. It involves Sheik pulling out a long metal chain and whipping it around. When Sheik pulls out the chain, the player has full analog control over it. The player can whip it in all directions - above and even behind Sheik's head. When a foe makes contact with the middle of the chain, they are slightly damaged. However, when the foe makes contact with the tip of the chain, they are given a small electric shock. Due to its poor damage and lag, it is almost never used in competitive play. In Brawl, the chain can act as a Tether Recovery and there is also a glitch called Chain Jacket Glitch.

Trivia

• On the Temple stage, when Sheik uses Chain in the right spot on the small pillar (near the entrance to the underground area) the chain will keep on making a small chain noise that can sometimes make character voices and cries inaudieable.
