Smash gives us good reason to view Sheik as separate and good reason to prefer Sheik over Zelda.

If you're hung up on them being the same person in LoZ:OoT though, that's fine. Sheik-fans will just out-nominate Zelda then.

Totally understandable!

Metalmind brought up the fair point that a lot of Board 8-rallies were automatically 8-seeds, though my opinion is we should have been higher than an 8-seed that year then. Zen also out-rallied Zelda with Corvo that year, so she ain't shit and we're coming for her.

TRUST IN THIS RALLY:

Look, we get it -- we're asking for your support on a very difficult goal. I recognize some of you are Zelda-fans, and some of you are even Tetra-fans who are salty I'm pushing for somebody else to replace Zelda. This rally is not only for your nomination of Sheik, but also for you to support Sheik potentially in spite of Zelda. #DownB

We get it if you think we cant get enough nominations to make it worth YOUR nomination too...but you need to know we CAN get enough, and your nomination IS worth it. In fact, we cant do it without you.

How do we know that? This isnt our first rodeos. Heres what weve done with our rallies to earn your faith so far:

When HaRRicH ran the Nomination Rally Tournament:

2009: all three winners -- Pokemon Red/Blue/Yellow, Star Fox 64, and Donkey Kong Country 2 -- got into the game contest.

When HaRRicH ran personal rallies:

2009/2010: Doc Louis got into the vote-in polls thanks to Team Chocolate.
2013: Epona got an 8-seed thanks to The Stable.
2018: Metal Man got a 13-seed despite not being included in the character database thanks to the Metal Men.

Also remember you got our main man ZenOfThunder working on the case!

When ZenOfThunder ran personal rallies:

2013: Corvo got a 15-seed and Yoshimitsu got a 20-seed.
2018: Metal Sonic got a 5-seed despite not beginning the rally until nominations opened thanks to the Metal Army.

Notice how well our last rally around a LoZ-character did: Epona was considered a joke by many...but when the oats settled, she became an 8-seed and she out-seeded the 16-seed Zelda. Also notice that same year the 15-seeded Corvo also out-seeded Zelda. This means youve got two people who have out-seeded Zelda separately at the same time...now TEAMING UP TOGETHER to out-seed Zelda again, this time for Sheik. #DownB

Listen, every rally weve led has only worked because of other people -- we're just the guys typing too much and bumping too often before we start trading nominations. These rallies happen because of YOU believing in the cause, and we're asking you to believe again.

Well do our part. If you want a part in this too, then pledge today and well take it all the way together. Just dont doubt that its possible -- we CAN do this!

GRAND TOTAL: 170

Sheik stands out strength-wise here -- there arent many who can compete with her. Eight of the Noble Nine are represented in a fighting game, and after that we're not ready to pick nine other characters previously playable in a fighting game to beat her. By that metric, she beats 90% of the fighters we've ever seen before.

We also don't know another GameFAQs fighting game snub who would beat Sheik. After looking at Blade Strangers, BlazBlue, Brawlhalla, Clayfighter, Darkstalkers, Dead or Alive, Dissidia, DreamMix TV World Fighters, Dynasty Warriors, Ehrgeiz, Fatal Fury, Guilty Gear, .hack//Versus, King of Fighters, Mortal Kombat, Persona, PlayStation All-Stars, Pokken Tournament, Power Battle, Skullgirls, Sonic the Fighters, Soul Calibur, Street Fighter, Street Fighter x Tekken, Super Smash Bros., Tales of VS., Tekken, Touhou fighters, Versus Capcom, Virtua Fighter, Ys vs. Sora no Kiseki...is there a game character we haven't seen from any of these series who you would take over Sheik? Or maybe another fighting game series we haven't seen represented here yet? Really doubt it.

Nominating Sheik likely means nominating our strongest fighting genre snub, one so strong she places in the top 10% of fighting genre characters we've ever seen featured in a GameFAQs match. That seems pretty worthwhile! We just have to get her in.

Well? What are you waiting for? Sheiks ready for the fight!

Dr. Mario also gets serious points docked for having a clearly similar name and appearance (as well as Paper Mario) as well as clearly similar mechanics to Mario in Smash. Sheik is far less similar to Zelda in those regards, especially since we're dealing with the LoZ-timeline and see in Ultimate that we have a Sheik and Zelda from different LoZ-games represented now.

That said, if Dr. Mario fans want to go and outrally Mario, that's their right to try and get their preferred variation in. We just think Sheik is different enough to merit having her own spot, and if our argument fails then we're replacing Zelda herself.

Also, sidenote about Paper Mario: kinda wish he'd be in Smash.

O P E R A T I O N O U S T : Nominate SHEIK!

Here are two categories that blur together.....

TWELVE VARIATIONS OF EXISTING CHARACTERS:

Baby Rosalina
Dark Link
Dark Pit
Dark Samus
Devil Jin
Dry Bowser
Evil Ryu
Meta Ridley
Metal Mario
Phantom Ganon
Rose Gold Peach
Toon Link

TWELVE EXISTING CHARACTERS WITH DIFFERENT COSTUMES, TYPES, AND EFFECTS:

Crossdressing Cloud
Dr. Mario
Giga Bowser
Iroquois Pliskin
Jaycee
Mariachi Raiden
Mr. L
Safer-Sephiroth
Super Sonic
Wolf Link
Yellow Yoshi
Zero Suit Samus

Here are twenty-four characters that, more or less, we mostly agree shouldn't be in a contest. You may have your exceptions -- I could go either way on probably one of them -- but the point is we have a fear of our contests being overrun by duplicates who only have fans because of their more popular sources.

That fear is justified, but Sheik is not the same as them.

First of all, since Smash is why this rally began, Sheik is the more popular character when it comes to Smash -- kick Zelda out!

It's also worth noting Sheik did something these other characters failed to do: she convinced us she was different. She has an identity that was unique enough for us to take seriously on its own merits for the majority of her first game.

Sheik's personality had us sold compared to these other personalities listed above. We saw Cloud go into the dressing room. Snake almost gave his name away, allowing us to catch his near-mistake. Julia Chang's moveset was similar and her initials were her new name. Luigi was brainwashed after previously playing as him -- you get the gist. Meanwhile, in this important moment of gaming history, Sheik was immediately cooler than Zelda ever was before 1998 (sorry Robin Williams) and we didn't know the spoiler until nearly the end of the game.

So now we're supposed to say Sheik -- whose debut was better received than anything Zelda did previously and who is consistently out-tiering Zelda in another genre ever since -- we're supposed to say Sheik is not allowed because Zelda's here?

Nah. Sheik is the good stuff, not Zelda.

Sheik and Zelda are different enough from most duplicates and Sheik has more legitimate support than any duplicate. Release her from Zelda's shadow and nominate Sheik!

LOZ-CHARACTERS IN BEFORE SHEIK:

LoZ-characters previously in matches before Sheik include:

LEGEND OF ZELDA (10):
CD-i Link
Epona
Ganondorf
Groose
Link
Midna
Tingle
Toon Link
Young Link
Zelda #DownB

We're looking at Sheik being indirectly at least the fourth strongest character in the series...and head-to-head, Sheik's beating all of them except Link. Even if Sheik went against those other versions of Link one-on-one, Sheik would beat Toon Link or Young Link!

https://www.ssbwiki.com/images/thumb/6/6f/Bouncing_Fish.jpg/300px-Bouncing_Fish.jpg

Not even the power of CD-i Link scares us away.

I'd expect Sheik to beat ZSS worse than Zelda could beat Samus due to Sheik's better Smash-presence and LoZ:OoT crushing M:ZM, but after some of the rallies we saw this year maybe reddit flips the match. Natural strength though, taking Sheik and never looking back.

Also, general question here - if all Rock would have done was kiss her and then leave due to his guilt, would you still consider that cheating from her perspective? What if Rock had left before her obvious advances had gotten physical at all - would she still be a cheater?

Yes to the kiss, no to the flirting but if it went some degree of physical like holding hands I''d still be mad about that.
