Biography

Sheeva was hand picked by Shao Kahn to serve as Sindel's personal protector. She becomes suspicious of Shao Kahn's loyalty toward her race of Shokan when he places Motaro as the head of his extermination squads. On the Outworld, Motaro's race of Centurions is the natural enemy of the Shokan.

Sheeva
Strengths Weaknesses
  • Great HP Jabs: Sheeva has the best HP jab priority in the game.
  • Great Throw: Sheeva's throw is a launcher. Sheeva can opt to combo off the throw for around 40% or start a throw vortex.
  • Can Escape Corner Traps: Sheeva can escape corner traps with Teleport.
  • Relaunched Easily: Sheeva is relaunched by every character in the game except Mileena no matter what.
  • Weak Anti Airs: Sheeva's tall hurbox makes anti air positioning very difficult.
  • Standing Crouch Blocking Hurtbox: Sheeva suffers from a glitch that gives her a stand blocking hurtbox while crouch blocking. This means that she doesn't benefit from increased crouch blocking pushback.
  • Corner Trapped Crouching: Because of the standing crouch blocking hurtbox, Sheeva gets corner trapped crouching by every character in the game.
  • No LK, HK, Sweep Punish: Sheeva does not have a special move that punishes LK, HK and unsafe Sweeps on block.
