Jab: Ike
Ftilt: Unique? I'm pretty sure I've seen this before.
DTilt: Mega Man
Utilt: Definitely unique
Dash Attack: Marth
FSmash: Unique
DSmash: Unique (kinda like Marth's but different)
USmash: Shulk's Utilt (amazing)
Nair: Ike
Fair: Shulk (but apparently spikes)
Bair: Like everyone with a sword
Dair: Roy
Upair: Ike's utilt in the air
Neutral B: Unique
Side B: Unique
Up B: Kirby + Shulk
Down B: Unique
Definitely a ripoff.

Haha, his ftilt is based on his FF7 animation which is probably why its familiar.

I guess I can see where people draw some similarities, what amuses me is the jab he does two kicks before the sword swing.

I'd say his dash attack is like Link's old one before Smash 4 tbh.

You missed the fact that he uses a rip-off of Great Aether for his Final Smash.

Even though Omnislash debuted as a move over a decade before Great Aether, and is something that Cloud actually had from his original game, unlike Ike..?

I feel like all the Omnislash complaints would disappear if Cloud stayed on the ground or something. Don't really understand why people are even upset about it anyway. Need I remind anyone about the number of beam/Mario Finale type Final Smashes?

although instead of just omnislash what if cloud was like ryu and he used knights of the round at a distance

that'd be great

dsmash is like tink's

I'd say fair is like shulk's crossed with dong's

it looks like uair is lingering in a way that ike's utilt isn't

also sideb is basically meta knight's jab :>

Ftilt: Unique? (Pretty much reversed Marth)
DTilt: Mega Man
Utilt: Reversed Little Mac
Dash Attack: Marth (Except bloody faster)
FSmash: Unique (Want Meta Knight to Side Tilt u)
DSmash: Tink with Horizontal Knockback
USmash: Fox but with a Sword
Nair: Useless ver. of Ike
Fair: Ike Spike
Bair: Nerfed Ike
Dair: LONK!
Upair: Ike's utilt in the air (I would have never of thought of that)
Neutral B: Horizontal Elwind
Side B: Unique (Curse)
Up B: Kirby (Just Kirby)
Down B: Unique
N-B+: Robin Flurry with range, 'or' Elwind with usefulness
S-B+: Unique+ (Misfortune)
U-B+: "WE NEED A BIGGER FINAL CUTTER!"
D-B+: >>>>>>> [Ding Ding] K.O!
FS: Ike's but cooler and original game accurate?
Definitely a Clone.

Fixed it for you. I'm out.

Seriously tho, these vids about nitpicking Clouds moveset just makes me even more hype. Not Helping guys, not helping.

yo if you're gonna fix things endeavor to be correct

dash attack doesn't have nearly as much disjoint as marth's, it's a lot closer to like, falcon's dash attack
usmash is nothing like fox's in application, in that it's about half as fast
tink's dsmash already has largely horiz knockback
upb is shulk+kirby because you can choose to only do one slash

I'm too lazy to correct other things but you're WAY too eager to stretch things to make them cloned

Heh. :mellow:

Seriously tho. Cloud is, entirely, unique. Mew2 may teem like it pillaged moved from many other fighters (ZSS - DSmash, Zard - STilt & BAir, Lucario - NueB, etc.) but the play style and design is still very different and played a lot differently to other fighters through combo's and movement. Cloud's design is like this a little coming from previous comments saying where the moves are taken from, but I'm pretty sure all characters have one or two moves that are the same as each character.

Mario, Luigi, Link, and Fox have the same nair for one.

Other examples off the top of my head are Samus's and Greninja's U-air, and Toon Link and Robin's nair.

Yeah, there are a lot of instances that don't make much sense.

I never played FFVII, and the only FF games I played were the XIII series (and I loved them, too, so, I'm probably not winning any points with the FF fandom), so I don't really care either way if Cloud is in Smash. But the fact that I barely know a thing about FF, besides the XIII games, but still know of Cloud, kind of works in the game's favour, seeing as it's sure to draw in some FF fans. Will it make a significant number of FF fans buy they game, for just one character? I have my doubts, but I only play two characters in Smash, so it isn't that out there that others will come into the game to just play Cloud.

I honestly do not care in the slightest about Cloud's inclusion in the game. I never played the game. I have no attachment or nostalgia for the character. But it's hard to say it was a bad decision to include him, considering his popularity. And like others have said as unexpected as it was, at least it was an FF character that people actually love. Seeing as XIII is so (overly)hated, as much as I love Lightning, at least it wasn't her. She gets enough hate as it is. :unsure:

sheik has that nair as well

I would argue that luigi's is more or less unique since its trajectory is straight upwards, making it much less of a gimping tool and more of a gtfo tool or combo tool

Jave, ,plez, no, it was an overall joke.

You both took this seriously? Hard to sense that on the internet.

Moveset analysis is srs bsns man.

Captain Falcon is a Hazama clone from Blazblue. I mean come on, his up smash is obviously Jayoku Houtenjin and he beats up Chrom who has the same voice actor as Ragna.

Snake is totally a clone of Dr Eggman, due to his resentment of Sonic and being voiced by him in Japan! I mean tons of explosives? Comeon :P:
