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. | 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. | ||

Because 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. | Because 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''. | |||
Gameplay wise, 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 your party, he often single-handedly obliterates even the most dangerous bosses in the game. | Gameplay wise, 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.
