Question

Cloud a good character?

so, Cloud now being a big part of the Smash Bros family, I couldn't help but notice him to be a little underpowered in this game. Considering what he is capable of in other games he is in. Would any of you liked to see someone other than Cloud in Smash 4... PS; I get Cloud is a favorite character in his other games but they could have made a better character choice.

His only flaw is recovery. By that logic Diddy Kong is also underpowered. Ridiculous.

Cloud has some of the best stage control in the game. You should rarely get gimped.

So because of one flaw (that to level players know how to avoid) he is underpowered? That incredible combo game and powerful finishing moves are balanced by one flaw?

Cloud is balanced, yes he has amazing stage control but his recovery should be bad...

Pls learn the Mu. Cloud is not op. How many big Tournamet has a Cloud main won? Not so many. So don't cry about your low skill level, pls.

A mentally deficient, suckling pig with parkinsons disease can master this character & win a major [No offense to Cloud mains]

@Joker Did I say Cloud is OP? No I said he is extremely good. I main Link and trust me high tier characters give him trouble. Its why during T's run at Civil War the commentators referenced Breath of the Wild and said his, "Major Test of Strength."

People, any character has the ability to be amazing. Take Ike or Gannondorf for example; in the right hands they are beast that is hard to deal with. Spacing and mind games is key to their game play. Link too, a good Link such as T is a force that anybody should think twice before approaching.

yeah but with those characters you have to spend A LOT of time on but with Cloud u can be "good" with him in a week. Lag cancelled dair, insta upb ledge grab, all of that can be learned in like 1 day. he takes barely any skill to play. Why do u think top players always run to Cloud when they're losing ? because they get good results in the least amount of time & thats LAZY idc

Clouds only advanced technique that you would actually have to practice is his frame cancelled fair in the ground other than that, easy mode

it's annoying for us players that like to put as much time & effort & practice into our characters, to have top players play a character that takes 10% skill

Cloud has no ground game, he has to use his air game to be [good]. I main Mario, say what you will but I've mained him in all Smash Bros. Yes..... even Brawl Mario. Still was able to hold my own against Metaknight and Fox players. Granted Mario is a 1,000 times better in Smash 4, I play Mario because I love the character, Link is my second best and DK being my 3rd string character. Cloud can zone,

keep away, wall out any of these characters. Cloud isn't unbeatable.

It all comes down too skill and knowing what you can or can't do in a matchup.

i understand what you're saying completely don't think i don't & i know hes not impossible to beat hes just unnecessarily annoying for no reason. u would think a giant sword would have more lag. I mean compare the lag of Marths up air & clouds up are. like.... howwwwww

@Nix Only 2 top players use Cloud regularly and get consistent results. Tweek and MKLeo.

Mew2King is the original solo Cloud main. And still the best.

The best part to is the M2K although super serious in tournament still does things to have fun. Like one time in a Meles tournament the entire crowd was chanting, "Four stock, four stock, four stock." He purposely SD'd. The next match of the set he was close to a JV. Crowd started chanting, "JV, JV, JV." He stopped moving, looked at the crowd, his opponent hit him, then he preceded to win.
