Does Sheik REALLY take skill to play?

This is day 7 of me playing Sheik and I can hold my ground against my friend BlueFlare's Captain Falcon. I've seen the Framedata of Sheik, but I don't find him to be much of a challenge to fight OR to play. Sheik Tryhards on For Glory have been Ganoncided, when it works on NOBODY else. I don't know why Sheik is Top Teir, someone please explain this to me.

  • Does Sheik really take skill to play? Probably not, but I haven't played as Sheik much so I could be wrong. It's probably people who think they are good, but really aren't good at all.

  • If you don't find Shiek challenging to fight then you been playing trash Shiek players.

  • According to my research on Top Teirs, Sheik's Down Throw into Up Air has the widest damage range out of all Easy Bake Combos, next to ZSS. I'm pretty sure it's hard to be trash as Sheik unless you Side B offstage. I also fight legitimate Tryhards, mind you. I get bodied every time, but somehow find the Ganoncide opening. R.I.P SheikNet

  • Shiek is widely considered one of the best characters in the game because of her ability to approach opponents in any way they see fit, such as using needles or f-air pressure. At first it may seem easy because so many of shieks moves have very little lag but when you begin to fight higher lvl players(not for glory) the shiek player must adapt to how their opponent is responding to their approach
