Make sure to never use dash grab, but feel free to use grab once or twice ever during training, when directly beside your amiibo in-game. Cloud is certainly the amiibo I have dedicated the most time to labbing, testing and experimentation throughout the entirety of my Amiibo career. And now he one or two shots me with a charged attack, every five seconds his limit break is charged and he obliterates me before I can even touch him.

The protagonist of FINAL FANTASY Ⅶ, Cloud wields the enormous Buster Sword, a memento from his comrade Zack. 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. All 3 of these factors are combined into the LIMIT gauge calculation, so he will have other options to fill his meter more effectively. Cloud Player One is at least partially based off his Final Fantasy: Advent Children movie design and while I saw Advent Children when it came out a number of years ago, I can’t say I have fond memories of it.Data on this site comes from a variety of sources, including the Hex Data Sheet by N3evin and CheatFreak and /u/MacGuffen's sheet. 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. I, of course, picked up all of the Player 2 amiibo for completion, and I think that the Cloud P2 is my favorite of the three.

Box – Much like the Player Two Cloud, the color chosen for the packaging here is not my favorite and doesn’t match the character as well as other colors have in the past for Smash Bros. Not including the cards or cereal, I’m only missing 32 (but I’m not including the dark variants of the Skylanders because they’re both in big bulky boxes with dumb extra stuff that I don’t care to add to the collection). The latter two arrive on 19th January 2024, while Sora doesn't have a solid date at the time of writing.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. Paint and Details – One of the tricky things about designing an Amiibo for Cloud is that he used to look like the picture above! Again, use Up Smash every time as an anti air, in this case when the opponent tries to land on stage or hops in the air off the ledge. Due to my experience with Cloud and my love for Final Fantasy 7, I meticulously studied Cloud’s AI to train SEIGENを, who has become an example for the Clouds that follow.

He was one of two fighters to be completely banned from competitive play, though he was later allowed back under a set of strict equipment restrictions. Make sure to use both hits of the move when you use it, otherwise he will sometimes use the first part of the attack only, which puts him into freefall and makes him vulnerable.

The beauty of the multi hit means that opponents that are parry-heavy will try to parry the first hit of his attack, only to eat the other two hits. Cloud takes his sword out at the beginning of a battle in FF7 (unless my memory fails me) and then twirls it around when you win so seeing him possibly in the act of doing that is really neat.
