Good choices, unfourtnately I haven't played a lot of different FF games so the pool I have in mind is a bit limited. I would like some Tales Of characters too, it's possible given Namco but who knows.
I'm not a FF fan really, but I have an answer.
Going off of Dissidia, he could be a multi-hit-only character which would be neat since there isn't a character like that where almost all their moves are multi-hit. So, slow to average hit speed, but a ton of active frames courtesy of his multi-hits. Example: He could have something like a 2-hit jab combo, but each hit does say, 3 hits making it technically a 6-hit jab combo. That's what I'm thinking for how Sephiroth hits. Recovery, movement, damage, etc.? I have no idea... I do know that Sephiroth could be a Ryu slayer because of his multi-hits and also a Goomba to Bowser 'cause Tough Guy.
After Cloud, my favourite FF protagonists are Tidus and Cecil. They're also my Dissidia mains in that order too.
First and foremost, Cloud. If Cloud isn't in the game, then I don't want another FF character. Like someone said above, I'd like him to be fleshed out with FFVII content.
Honestly I would love to see a simple 2d game like Smash but all FF7 characters with some other FF games' characters thrown in as extras. Playing as Cloud in Smash has made me think what if it was all FF7 characters fighting it out in place of people like Mario or Link. Cloud and Tifa vs Sephiroth and human-form Jenova or Kedaj. Tifa and Berret versus the Turks. Aerith versus Sephiroth.
You're sure? I've seen people's shield go up in between dthrow to LB Cross Slash, and I just assumed it was unblockable
I'm having the opposite experience, Cloud immediately clicked with me even though I'm not a fan of him or the games he's from, lol.
Yeah, same here. I'm also have trouble using Finishing Touch. I get hit out of it during startup, and it's not really reliable as a punish from shield. Imo LB Cross Slash and LB Climhazard outclass it terms of useability
Yeah Utilt definitely kills.
Aren't you an Ike main though? I've seen you on the Ike boards and your sig has Ike in it.
Pretty sure a good Sheik would be using those needles to rack up damage and/or take advantage of the fact that you're standing there.
Right, but like I said, they're not as much of a deterrent because of low knockback. The other option is loading them, but that gives you time to, well, charge.

: I thought I'd try my hand as a Cloud main. I'm going to give it another week of playing as him before I write him off, but yeah, I typically main Ike. 
Sephiroth's range would be unreal. I think he would be able to outrange Shulk even.If there's a Smash 5, first, have Cloud return as a base game veteran with actual amounts of FF/VII content.
A second FF rep if possible, not too sure, I'd take any tbh, but I think I'd prefer maybe Cecil, Terra, Tifa, Sephiroth, Zidane, Tidus, Light, Vaan, etc etc.
I'd love to see how they'll manage to balance Sephiroth
Yes.
