Just like Shiek, Diddy, Metaknight, and any other character that's gotten big time nerfs after getting popular.
Shiek is still top tier even with nerf... but still needs skill. Same case for my main Rosalina.

I may drop Bayonetta for Ryu so that I can counter the Rosaluma match-up. Because I'm a tier *****.

the deal with was just something I found online and I was waiting for the right time to use it. My bad.

But Ryu has very powerful moves with most of his moves having a lot of knock back and dealing good damage. His aerials are freaking sweet with moves like Bair and Fair sending Luma away while doing good damage. Not to mention if I practice landing Bair fast enough I may be able to bounce them off stage. And then their is the True Shoryuken which kills at 66%.

I don’t like going Cloud with the MU cause Luma gimps Cloud pretty easily. Plus I don’t like playing defensively with Cloud and I could be harassed by Luma if I go to charge my Limit. While I could go for a limit cross slash to kill off stage, I usually end up miss judging the angle or using it too late and or to early. I dropped Bayo because of how light she got and a Ryu with rage is terrifying.

If anyone has any other character recommendations for RosaLuma, I would be grateful.

Hmm... Ryu can be a potential character against Rosaluma.

Finding a character that can take down both Rosalina and Luma can be hard, I think either Robin, Yoshi, ZSS can take up against Rosalina and Luma.

Coulda fooled me with your profile!

Cloud is honestly Rosa's worst MU. Well spaced aerials and CS get rid of luma so easily. Nair is also a pretty good move to stuff Rosa's recovery. Nair has a huge hitbox and it's hard to not miss if you can react well enough.

You need to bair immediately after you initially jump.

To snap the ledge, you need to up B when you are next to the ledge. Practice in training mode and you'll see it's not hard to pull off at all.
thanks, i get get the double bair sometimes. although i'm terrible at the ledge snap. i can't seem to find the spacing for it, and i've been at it for like 20 minutes now.

Practice makes perfect. Maybe this will help (skip to 6:00 for the recovery stuff, and disregard the Finishing Touch section).

i can do the basic recovery well. i play melee marth, so i'm used to an upb like that. what gives me issue is doing this:
the range m2k seems to snap from is so much longer than the itty bit in the video you posted

Hey guys. Been a while, I just got some random trophy that says "Only the best is good enough!" with a rather vague description "can you figure out how to unlock this one?" thought it was weird. On a Final fantasy related note here's some of the summons for the New Dissidia for those interested.

Hi guys, I was on a school camping trip so I haven't been here in a while. Has anyone downloaded the Reunion yet?

I watched my first anime with a friend from highschool. It was highschool of the dead and it was...interesting. It was really fun to watch to be honest.

Anyway, I am learning that Ryu and Cloud have a very similar play style which makes him pretty cool to pick up.

Gotta admit, I'm not sure if I'm getting this new Dissidia. The music is iffy, and I don't like the changes they made to Cloud. I guess we'll have to wait and see how they do with Kuja. EDIT: and Kain!
Oh, and I logged on to see this:

Thanks, -mo for the like that gave me the 'Start a fan club' trophy.

Where did we get anime from? ?_?

Now that we're on the subject though, I found this
That was released around the time Crisis Core Final Fantasy 7 was released or a little bit after. It's basically an anime adaptation of the end game for Crisis Core.

Drew Cloud on a school iPad in a bit of a different art style. Really proud, if anyone plans on using this for anything I can add the Midgar background. :4cloud:

What's the Reunion?
I wrote a whole essay on it last page... :/
Oh and I've been listening to this user a lot. Already decided to put some of his tracks in my game. The tracks I plan on replacing are:
Those Chosen by the Planet
Cid's Theme
Shinra Corporation
Jenova
The Great Warrior Seto
Cosmo Canyon
Flowers Blooming in the Church
Underneath the Rotting Pizza
Birth of a God
Tifa's Theme
Jenova Absolute
Anxious Hearts
Weapon Raid
Judgement Day
Fortress of Condor
Holding Thoughts in my Heart
Secrets Sleeping in the Deep Sea
Oppressed People
Reunion
Hurry Faster
Wutai
Also I've found a REALLY nice compilation of mods known as The Reunion. The main draw to it is that it correctly translates everything. There are some shockers in terms of name changes (Zack becomes Zax, Midgar Zolom becomes Midgardsormr, and Marlene becomes Marin among others) but the story is much more understandable and relatable. It improves the field models but keeps them loyal to the original "blocky" style of the game. Battle models stay the same except for Cloud and Sephiroth, whose higher-quality models are already in the game (Cloud's model is the one from the scripted battle with Sephiroth for example) with is great because all the battle models except Yuffie's were already excellent and portrayed the character's personalities better than that other mod I showed off earlier. The installer installs the mods for you with no hassle at all, and you are able to chose which mods you want to install and you can uninstall it at any point extremely quickly. The installer also comes with a detailed readme that describes in excellent detail what every install option and mod does. Windows such as text boxes and menus are more compact and flow better overall. The ONE problem I've found with it is when using the auto-run function, you cannot escape Aerith's house. This is detailed in the readme as well and it is easy enough to simply quit the game and uninstall the mod, then reinstall it once you have escaped the house and used the Save Point right outside. Other glitches like the Save Point glitch and the double item bug in the Northern Crater (not the W-Item glitch, that remains) have also been fixed. I recommend ANYBODY with the ability to install this mod and play it. It's worth an entire replay of the story. Here is the link to the forum page: http://forums.qhimm.com/?topic=14914.0

That's pretty good for something on a iPad. Kudos.

As for the Reunion thing, sorry, I didn't read your post because this was when this social was discussing mods and I tuned myself out until the discussion subsided.

I got Crisis Core in the mail today, but I need to wait for the PSP to arrive so that I can play it...

I also ordered Dissidia 012 and I'm looking forward to it.

Nice! Where did you get your PSP? How cheap was it? Still low-key looking to play Dissidia 012

I got a used PSP for about $100 on Amazon, but they can be cheaper. For some reason, a new PSP is still $400 or so...

Crisis Core and Dissidia 012 were pretty damn cheap.

I'm honestly considering getting a Vita just to get digital versions of all my PSP games.

Well, except Crisis Core. That still isn't on the PSN Store, if I'm not mistaken.

I was gonna buy a Vita for Christmas last year but I decided against it for the time being.

It's still on my wishlist so I will get it eventuality, maybe for my birthday.

So when the new patch happened I lost that glorious Finishing Touch windbox kill and soooooo many hype stuff that would have definitely made it to Replay Hut. However, on FG today I was able to get another FT windbox kill, this time on another Cloud that decided to trigger me by picking my color and picking my character, as well as a few other cool things on different players. Here's hoping this is the last patch so I can actually record them. If you know anyone with a 3DS capture card, have them hit me up please yall!

Not too long ago, I've been testing out my attribute edits on Meta Knight against Cloud. During those tests, I found it so amusing how Meta Knight could easily take a stock life away from Cloud with his edge-guarding game.

What a surprise.

In other news, I've put in the FFX battle theme over FFVII's in my game. Never going back lol. I'm also doing really well in the game. Got Yuffie's Heroic Strength Limit Break before I even got to Junon and leveled all my characters to level 21 lol. The rest of Yuffie's Limit Breaks are really easy to get after Heroic Strength, I usually got it by the Icicle Area but I'm on track to beat this game really easily... once again, just easier than before.

Also, am I the only one who uses Braver over Curse Slash when I can just because the animation is so much better?

Hey guys, I'm a new member here. As Cloud is my main, I thought this would be a great place to set up shop.

Last year was spectacular as a Final Fantasy VII fan. With Final Fantasy VII being remade and Cloud joining the Smash roster, I feel all is right with the world. Now if only I could improve my Smash endgame... Anyway, I'm a huge Final Fantasy fan, and I own nearly every release, port, remake and spin-off in the franchise. Hope I can play some matches with you guys some time!

Welcome to Smashboards and to the Cloud social. The folks here are really good people.

Cloud's inclusion in Smash has ignited my interest not only in Final Fantasy VII but also the Final Fantasy series as a whole. I started playing VII three months after Cloud was confirmed and I'm really loving it so far. I still yet to finish it though but I will eventually. The remake is the main reason why I bought the PS4.

So by all means, make yourself at home. :)

Hello! Welcome to AVALANCHE! Make yourself at home!

I was wondering, what is your favorite Final Fantasy? Mine's VI.

My favorite game in the franchise is Crisis Core — Final Fantasy VII. People love Cloud, but Zack deserves admiration too. Numerically, my favorite would be Final Fantasy VI.

Once again I welcome you to join the Cloud social thread!
Hm... by the way, have you ever met any people who is also a FF fan but feeling salty about Cloud being in Smash? I hope there won't be any...

And man I see you have partnered with a lot of big Nintendo focused Youtubers (Which nearly all of them I had subbed)! I feel pity for not subscribing to your Youtube channel!

I haven't met anybody salty about Cloud being in Super Smash Bros. In fact, I know people who don't like Final Fantasy at all but were excited to see Cloud join the franchise because of the hope it gave them for their favorite characters.

No worries about being subscribed. I'm just grateful to work with so many talented content creators as well as Nintendo and The Pokémon Company. I simply enjoy creating interviews and discussions as well as collaborating with amazing people.

The Smash community is pretty special. When Cloud got announced via his trailer, he got SO MUCH HYPE, and everyone went crazy over his inclusion. Now it seems whenever people talk about Cloud in the competitive scene, it's just a laundry list of complaints. Funny since he is no way the best character in the game (top 10 for sure), but definitely not best. People get salty when losing to my Cloud all the time, whether it's online, or IRL at tournaments.

How do you guys think Cloud feels about being in Smash? Does he think of it as just another battle? A boss battle? Is he in the FFVII universe when he battles? Dissidia? Who does he fight for? Did he willingly join Smash like Ryu?

Also WHY DOESN'T HE RIDE THE MOTORCYCLE IN GRRRRR:grrr:

Cloud's is like the only character I actually get angry when I see other people use lol. I don't know why but I always get a little irritated when I run into a Cloud on FG or at tournament. You guys are ok though <3. Speaking of which, don't you guys hate dittos with a passion? Like if someone switches to Cloud on me, it's like, if I lose... then...
