BREAKING THE LIMITS: Cloud Guide - SSBU - An in-depth guide to Cloud Strife

Why are Nintendo such big party poopers when it comes to nerfing characters?!

Be aware though that it might have been really unfun for other non-Cloud players in Smash 4 that he could save limit to cover one of his only real weaknesses. Cloud is, even while nerfed, still a good character.
