When fighting, Cloud remains in a "combo" of astonishingly rapid sword strokes and occasionally Thunder-based magic attacks, only fighting normally when he seems to be winning and Sora or the others are near. His attacks include: the technique "Sonic Rave" where he dashes through his opponents, he can slash his opponents using a powerful combo called "Cross Slash", he can use "Braver" where he jumps in the air and comes down hard. When enraged, he activates "Omnislash", where he surrounds himself with fire and lightning and starts flying and attacking in a Sephiroth-like manner. Essentially, his entire moveset consists of his original Limit Breaks.

Although Cloud is a much weaker boss than Sephiroth in ''Kingdom Hearts'', the fact he was able to go head-to-head with him in ''Kingdom Hearts II'' implies that he wasn't fighting as hard as he could against Sora. Since he acted as a supporting character, but not as a party member in ''Kingdom Hearts II'', Cloud is immune to damage during the period of time he helps Sora's party.

Cloud's basic technique is {{nihongo|'''Cross-slash'''|凶斬り|Kyougiri|lit. "Bane-slash"}}, a three-hit sword combo with his Buster Sword. He can also perform {{nihongo|'''Cross-slash+'''|凶斬り・改|Kyougiri-kai|lit. "Bane-slash Revision"}}, in which he teleports behind an opponent before Cross-slash. His strongest technique is {{nihongo|'''Omnislash'''|超究武神覇斬|Choukyūbushinhazan|lit. "Super-ultimate War-god Commanding Slash"}}, where he extends his wing and begins flying around the arena while performing heavy slashes on his opponent. In ''Kingdom Hearts II'', Cloud instead uses '''Omnislash ver5''', based on a technique introduced in ''Final Fantasy VII Advent Children''.

Cloud is, by far, the most powerful ally in ''Kingdom Hearts II''; along with being immune to damage, he is able to deal a large amount of damage in a very short amount of time. When using a cheat device to place him in the party, he often single-handedly obliterates even the most dangerous bosses in the game.
