Overview

Cloud is the first Square Enix character to appear in smash. In SSBU he is both great at both defense and offense using his long sword and great damage to close out stocks. His attributes for movement and big hitboxes combined his neutral is arguably one of the best in the game.

While Cloud lacks an extensive combo game, he still has great setplay and high damaging buttons. His competitive trademark B-Air are great for combos, damage and ending stocks. Both F-Air and N-Air can also help setup situations to activate his powerful corner pressure.

Limit break gives Cloud new ways of pressuring the opponents with and without interacting with the opponent. His specials become stronger, and opens not only more moves to end stocks with, but also more positions to end a stock.

His core weakness comes from having to manage his Limit bar resource as well as his weak offstage presence. While he is good at edgeguarding, he has more linear recovery trajectories compared to most of the cast and few ways to mix it up.

Summary

Cloud is a swordfighter that uses his great air mobility and long sword to approach enemies, and finish them off with Limit Break. (Placeholder)
Pros	Cons
Great Disjointed Normals: Cloud's long sword gives him a lot of range. B-Air, F-Air, and Cross slash are great moves for spacing and mixing up his pressure. Good base attributes: Cloud is fast both of the ground and in the air relative to the rest of the cast. Limit Break: Limit is a strong install that buffs Cloud's movement and enhances his next used special move, further boosting his KO potential and his ability to approach. Cloud exceeds the fastest base air speed in the game with limit. Strong Edge Guarding and Ledge Trapping: His long, disjointed aerials with high knockback makes Cloud great offstage despite his bad recovery. It is made even stronger with Limit. His ledge trapping is also strong for the same reasons.	Bad Recovery: Climhazzard without Limit covers only a short, vertical distance and very little horizontal distance. If Cloud is off stage, he's very susceptible to getting edgeguarded. While he does have very high air speed, his air acceleration is mediocre making gimping a common win condition against Cloud. Poor grab game: Cloud has a very low range, high frame startup grab. All of Cloud's throws can't kill at high percentages and do not have combo potential beyond low percentages on a few characters, reducing his ability to mix up his attacks. Poor combo game: Cloud's moves are slow and do too much knockback to follow up on. He has a few combos at low precents and some confirms with narrow percent windows.

Limit Break

Cloud possesses a Limit Gauge, present above Cloud's portrait.

Limit can be filled up by dealing damage, receiving damage or by charging with Limit Charge. When this meter fills up completely, Cloud enters a state called Limit Break.

In Limit Break, Cloud's base stats get boosted. His grounded and aerial movement become faster. It does not increase the base damage or knockback of Cloud's normal moves. However, Cloud's special moves will become enhanced.

Blade Beam moves faster and has greater KO potential. Cross Slash deals all 5 slashes quickly and KO's at mid percentages at the ledge. Climhazzard's vertical distance is enhanced further and has even more intangibility frames. Lastly, Limit Charge is replaced with Finishing Touch, an attack that although does little damage, has tremendous knockback that can kill opponents early.

Once Cloud uses a special move in Limit Break or 15s has passed from activating Limit Break, Cloud's stats will return to normal as well as his special moves.

Exact stat changes of Cloud's Limit Break can be found at SSBWiki here.

Great anti air
Less consistent in the air
Bizarrely, this move has different hitbox placements depending on whether Cloud is facing left or right, which can affect its range

Great anti air
Great for covering recovery trajectories
Floats in the air until the hitbox is over
Final hit has low ending lag, making it hard to whiff punish

Hit / Hitbox	Base KB	Fixed KB	KB Growth	Landing Lag	Autocancel Window	Shieldstun	Shieldlag	Bonus Shield Damage	Direct Hitbox	Clang ReboundThe type of interaction when a hitbox interacts with another hitbox Rebound interacts by clanking with other hitboxes, causing the rebound property if the hitbox doesn't deal over 9.0% damage than the opposing hitbox it is clanking with. Trample interacts by clanking with other hitboxes, but doesn't cause the rebound property. Transcendent cannot interact with other hitboxes. No Stop interacts by clanking with other hitboxes, but doesn't stop being active. Unique to Mii Gunner's Grenade Launch.	Rehit	Hitlag Multiplier	SDI Multiplier
