CLOUD STRIFE DISSIDIA MOVESET
This is my Cloud Strife moveset. Some of you may remember the one made by .Fade a while ago. Well I decided to improve upon that one by fusing it with aspects of haloedhero's Cloud as well as adding a load of my own moves as well.
MOVESET DETAILS
- Cloud is faster than Ike (running speed is 1.55) but obviously not as strong when it comes to raw power.
- Cloud is significantly lighter than Ike, with 90 weight (the same as Peach)
- Cloud's main basis is for stringing combos of attacks together. By doing additional presses of buttons you can follow up attacks with ease.
- Cloud has new waiting, running, falling and dodging animations
- Cloud has a secret taunt
Now for the moveset itself:
AAA - Cloud does four quick slashes. Fantastic combo ability into other moves. 8%
F Tilt - Cloud does a body slash. This can be followed up with two more attacks by pressing A and A again. If you press B on the third attack instead of A, he cancels to the Up B. 12%
U Tilt - Cloud does a quick upwards slash. The weakest of his tilts but the fastest to come out. 7%
D Tilt - Cloud swipes at the opponents feet. Good knockback overall. 9%
Dash Attack - Cloud leaps forward and spins around with his sword out. Has long reach but punishable ending lag. 9%
F Smash - Cloud slices his sword downwards for Braver. The strongest but slowest of his smashes. Good damage and knockback. 17-24%
U Smash - Cloud summons a bolt of lightning with good vertical reach. The fastest of his smashes but also the weakest. It also has after shocking electric hitboxes if the lightning misses. 13-18%
D Smash - Cloud summons two fire blasts at each side. The most rounded of his smashes with good horizontal reach. 14-19%
N Air - Cloud spins his sword around for multiple hits. Great range and combo ability. 14%
F Air - Cloud swings his sword overhead. The most well rounded of his aerials. 10%
B Air - Cloud swings his sword backwards and upwards. Well rounded like the F Air. 8%
U Air - Cloud delays, the smashes his sword overhead. Good for a star KO. 13%
D Air - Cloud does a flip with his sword pointing down. A weak spike on most of the sword (however if you hit with the tip of the sword it is stronger). 10% normal 13% tip
Neutral B: Fira - Cloud shoots a fireball out of his hand. It's not too fast but the size and range are decent and it explodes on contact. 6%
Side B: Climhazzard - Cloud rushes forward at high speeds. On the ground you will slice the foe upwards if you connect the initial hitbox. After that you can press either A or B to follow up with a spin or a spike downwards. In the air, Cloud does a whirlwind spin downwards, dragging anyone unlucky enough to get hit down with him for a Cloudicide 18% for the spin combo (ground), 16% for the spike combo (ground), up to 24% for the Cloudicide combo (air though it will never do this much)
Up B: Finishing Touch - Cloud spins upwards like a windmill at high speeds, slashing foes up with him. Great recovery move and has a good spike at the end that hits at a 45 degree angle. 15%
Down B (Ground): Meteorain - Cloud whirls his sword round his body. During this time you can press a direction on the DPad to direct where the meteors will land. Then Cloud will summon six meteors from the sky to rain down. 5% for each meteor
Down B (Air): Aerial Fang - Cloud dives down at high speeds towards the foe. If he connects the hit he can bounce off them and hit them upwards. This move can also be jump cancelled part way through. 8%
Final Smash: Omnislash - Cloud smashes the opponent upwards, then begins a powerful series of slashes on the foes and finishes off with a smash downwards. 69% (lol)
FUTURE CHANGES FOR V1 (FINAL VERSION)
