Mortal Kombat 9/Sheeva

Sheeva

Sheeva is a member of the four-armed Shokan race. Her markings reveal that she is of the royal Draco lineage. Like all Shokan, she pledged her life to Shao Kahn, bringing honor to her race by serving him. During an attack by Edenian rebels on Shao Kahn's fortress, Sheeva fiercely protected Queen Sindel and prevented her capture. She was subsequently appointed Sindel's personal bodyguard until the queen's mysterious death in Earthrealm. Sheeva is now the master jailer of Shao Kahn's oppressive dungeon.

Move Analysis

Basic Attacks

Standing

Comes out very fast and leads to a small stagger state. Can be cancelled into anything, but technically not combo into.

Command Normals

+

Overhead kick. Comes out fast, has good range, and beats a lot of things.

Kombo Attacks

, , , +

Very good string that can be cancelled into anything. Builds a ton of meter and leads to command grab trap. The last hit can whiff on some characters if they're blocking low.

+ , +

2 low hits. Second hit only hits if the first one hits. Second hit can be cancelled into specials.

, , +

Good punishing string which can lead to anti air grab combos.
