About this deal
It’s a really quick option up close and has good vertical range, so it can catch opponents through platforms and ones that try to jump over him. You will want to teach Cloud a ton of parrying as some of his better moves may be a tad slow in comparison to a lot of other characters. In terms of some less obvious bonuses to try, some good ideas would be Air Defense ↑, Trade-Off Ability ↑, Floaty Jumps or Move Speed ↑ for recovery, or even a second Weapon Attack ↑ skill. The one thing that I do notice is how much more modern the design looks and while having one shoulder piece and buckles on the bottom of his cape are silly, you have to admit, he still looks cool.
To refrain from encountering this issue, it is recommended to use Up B as a move sparingly, so he isn’t encouraged to use this option as frequently. Teaching him to charge LIMIT also causes him to sometimes charge right next to an opponent, which isn’t the smartest idea. Cloud’s AI can rack on damage with it, but it often struggles to KO its opponent if uses its up air too often. Cloud’s grabs do almost nothing for him, so it’s not worth teaching him to grab (however one grab doesn’t hurt). Without them, he won’t be able to get past opponents who shield a lot ( unless you gave your FP the Shield Damage ↑ Spirit effect).Down Tilt on the other hand can pop the opponent up for an Up Smash and two frame recoveries, so try to use it a bit more. As much as people may assume Cloud is just Forward Smash spam, he actually needs to be able to properly utilize a lot of his kit (especially Cross Slash) to awaken his full potential. All 3 of these factors are combined into the LIMIT gauge calculation, so he will have other options to fill his meter more effectively. It also discourages Cloud from using LIMIT Climhazzard, especially at ledge since he already tries to use Down Tilt at ledge. I was pretty young when I played Final Fantasy 7 too and that might be why I can see past any of the games faults!

While other toys-to-life ranges have fallen by the wayside over the years, the amiibo range has grown and grown, with Nintendo still releasing new figures which are quickly snapped up by keen collectors. I hope this guide was able to help give you a detailed look at the intricacies of the Cloud AI as well as mentor you on how to train him optimally.I love Final Fantasy 7, it is my favorite game in the series by far and I have always wanted figures of the characters from that game. Occasionally running to get to make it to the ledge for some ledge trapping isn’t frowned upon however.
By making use of his aerials and prioritizing it over Neutral B, you can essentially cause Cloud to SD less! Forward smash is Cloud’s best move, and it’s easy to see why: it’s strong, it strikes multiple times, and it’s strong. You can actually use Neutral or Back Air if you can every now and then for quicker attacks and giving Cloud some breathing room when trying to make it back to stage, but make sure to stick to Forward and Down Aerial mainly. He loves Nintendo but sometimes gets confused and starts telling everyone that F-Zero X is the best F-Zero game.Paint and Details – One of the tricky things about designing an Amiibo for Cloud is that he used to look like the picture above!
The protagonist of FINAL FANTASY VII, Cloud wields the enormous Buster Sword, a memento from his comrade Zack. The two-slot Giant Spirit effect works rather well too, as it allows Cloud to use a super-powered forward smash. Over the last couple of years, sometimes as a video game fan and as a Nintendo fan, you have to step back and say, “Wow, I can’t believe that we live in a world where ________ exists. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average.I can't work with slow characters and prefer young link because his kit is the one I'm absolutely best at using, I just wanted to play a game not be humiliated by some tournament player level ai. When I saw this I had to have it as its my fabe character alongside Sephiroth in Final Fantasy, he comes with his original uniform with his overly large Buster Sword (not ultimate weapon) and the detail is rather good! It may sound strange since I’ve noted not to use it everywhere else in the guide, but the move itself isn’t bad on its own.
