Cloud: *Countering everything with absolute precision*
Tifa & Aerith: 🐸 🐸
😂
wait but why are they frogs?
@@Firewolf808 They must have enfeeblement rings on them, turns them into frogs at the start of a battle.
Sephiroth: uses firewall
Cloud: I'm not trapped in here with you, You're trapped in here with me.
And my frogs
the easiest way to explain cloud's combat style is being a parry god, ive seen so many people just rush in and spam attack while barely dodging when his entire shtick is reacting to his enemies movements and using it to his advantage. Definately top 5 best cloud gameplays ive seen so far.
Thank you!
i find cloud so fucking bloody boring to use , but bro Saiyan nailed it like a fucking champ , like holy fucking fuck! top 5 best cloud gameplay ? as to be top 3 easy if not #1 i seen over the internet
@@illumina91 Haha, kind words, thank you 🙏
5:36 Cloud: Nothing personal
Meanwhile the past 5 mins: Absolutely personal
Finally, someone who acknowledges clouds specialty. I think I've only seen one other person with a video like this. Cloud isn't a proactive fighter by nature, he's reactive. He's strongest this way. Good job dude.
Thank you, very well said!
honestly it makes sense. a weapon like the kind he uses while unrealistic would probably be best suited as a defensive weapon. i mean its essentially a bladed heavy shield.
When the game first dropped I remember counter was the way
I'm not good at the dodging part but counter is literally his kit. After so long people still just button mash?
Are all the enemies..at least the ones Cloud can reach, counterable?
"Nothing personal"
Said Cloud to Sephiroth
lol! i know, i wanted to get the "let's dance a**hole"
“oh the memories” - sephiroth says as aerith appears 😮
I think it’s moreso about the fire infusion, he’s taunting Cloud about the Nibelheim incident.
Tifa: Need some help?
Cloud: you good to go?
Tifa: You know i- *frog*
Biblically accurate Cloud Strife.
The fighting, the friendship, the mythos! This is so beautifully done. FF7 really had the best characters and team feeling and it transcribed into next gen in such a Cool way
Completely agree, it’s the characters and their relationships that connect so strongly with fans
That clutch reprieve finish was gorgeous.
Haha I think I had Mythril Claws on Tifa. You playing Rebirth day one?
@@Saiyan1C No, it's gonna be a while. I'll be waiting for the PC port, and likely need to upgrade in the meantime. A PS5 isn't a good investment for me unfortunately.
@@reloadpsi Ah yea, I remember you mentioning that before, I may hold off a few months on posting Rebirth content, even then I’ll try to keep thumbnails and titles as spoiler free as possible.
@@Saiyan1C that's very kind of you, sir
great stuff, but seeing tifa come in to help and then cloud asking her "good to go?" and the camera spins around she is a fucking frog... made me lose my shit lmao.
Lmao!
Same!! I died!! 😂🤣🤣
The way u parry with cloud consistently made it feel like i was watching a movie. U are too good.
I suck at hard mode trying to get these damn manuscripts.
Thanks haha i'm glad it was entertaining! My 1st hard mode run through, i just spammed triple slash, Barret healing with prayer, make sure everyone has bloodsucker ability weapons equipped, good luck!
It’s the lore accurate Cloud we’re seeing here.
Ur rebirth videos are gonna be nuts
Thank you, I hope they won’t disappoint!
I am glad you did this run before Rebirth
About time right lol
@@Saiyan1C Pff that wasn't even his final form ... Yeah I went there lol. Seriously though this was a really cool video thank you for uploading it. 😂.
@@kozmickitsuneame Always love a DBZ reference lol, appreciate you bro
I'm proud of you. Your parrying and counter attacking reminds me of pro speedrunners in the Frontiers Horizon DLC.
The fact that he was still taking damage even while countering mostly everything it's astonishing i mean it really put's into perspective how mindblowing strong is sephiroth
You actually eat damage for all counters, even mobs will do damage.
Cloud doing all the work while tifa and aerith froggin around
You're a counter God! That was the secret of your success!
Thanks lol
1:49 that slide back was SICK
"you're mine."
-cloud to sephy
real
Damn this was amazing. I'm bad at countering but this makes me want to do it anyway
Thanks! Countering is too satisfying lol.
Cloud out here looking like sage mode jiraiya with the frogs😂
your reflexes are impressive!!!
1:31 Don't know about need, I ain't refusing it...
0:47
Sephiroth: "Come-"
Cloud: "Alright, Let's get this over with"
🤔
The frog combos are sick
Damn right
Only recently played the game on PC
Cloud's Ctrl + _E_ Punisher Counter game is busted asF...
For weird comparison, Sonic Frontiers Perfect Parry can be held not for 2-3 seconds but 3 FRAMES
Rufus is the best counter against Cloud if you don't block the knockback
6 Shots total for Boosting, attacking, and other shenanigans before RELOAD happens....
Got it first try without that knowledge, so here are some speedrun tips...
-You don't need to move towards Rufus, he's already rushing your location.
-Switch to punisher and counter Darkstar nearly perfectly with huge margin of error as he attacks with any melee blockable attack
-Pressure +Forward Theust
-GO GO MAGIC WEAKNESS
-Save Limit for later
Rufus Only:
-Become Edgy The Hedgy, stand your ground, Operator block the bullets, dodge the unblockable
-Block, the thing that is worse than damage is stunlock.
-Have 1 ATP ready for opportunity
-Get close enough
-DO NOT USE NORMAL ATTACKS, HE HAS PARRY MATERIA ON WHEN NOT RELOADING
-Reload happens
-As fast as you can, pause to the command bar at close but forgiving distance
-use "Braver"
-??????
-Limit Break: Ascension
>>>No more Tekken Tactics, GGEZ
Dude Rebirth needs to hurry the hell up!
Lol! The demo has been good
@@Saiyan1C I’m getting ready to fire it up for my second play through!!
I absolutely can’t wait for this game. It looks absolutely insane!!!
This is why it TRIGGERS me whenever i see a streamer/youtuber not using Cloud's punisher mode, it's so good
Lmao! Yea same
Can't wait to play his next part❤
Each day feels like a year lol
Jesus Christ, this guy was locked in. Sephiroth gave me an ass whooping on normal mode, getting my cheeks ready for hard mode now ;-;
✊🏼
Awesome run. I do hope they buff up counterstance in Rebirth. Only 4 weeks away my friend
Thank you! Hopefully demo release at the State of Play lol
@@Saiyan1CRebirth demo tomorrow!
@@WrenchLord Gonna need to take some time off work lol
You really decided to give sephiroth hands just before rebirth comes out 😂
Indeed, hope you enjoyed it lol
This is a *fraction* of what Sephiroth is in kingdom hearts 🥴
I swear that sword covered the entirety of the Olympus Coloseum.
@@redlister2934 lore accurate
Yep. I know a KH player when I see one. Those counters were too precise!
Jesus christ, this dude is a god at block/counter
I’m so glad the devs knew what they were doing 😄
@@Saiyan1C I just finished normal mode (I know, a bit late to the party 🤣) playthrough and I didn't know you were able to have a fight like this, wild stuff! Cloud was by far my favorite active character to control during fights.
@@eojj14 Nice! Hard mode might seem daunting at first but you’ll quickly find it’s more fun. Happy gaming bro!
hard mode was very fun
@@Saiyan1C
@@illumina91 hell yea
Do your choices during the game affect who joins you during the Sephiroth fight? I just finished it on hard mode, and I had Aerith join first, then Tifa. And I could have sworn on my first playthrough it was Tifa and Barret, but I can't remember for sure.
They do affect who joins and which order.
Really wish they kept punisher mode the same for Rebirth, it looks so much cooler the way the swings flow in Remake
Yea the new punisher slashes should’ve been a different mechanic
Let's see that gameplay on Rebirth too. 🎉
Remake's mysterious Unknown Sephiroth from the Edge of Creation is probably my FAVORITE version of Sephiroth! I haven't played REMAKE, but when One-Winged Angel kicked in for your fight, it made me remember fighting Sephiroth in the Sephiroth Challenge for Ultimate and when One-Winged Angel played for Hard Mode, I KNEW I was screwed! Sephiroth's A.I. in that game was INSANE! It took me three tries to beat him! I had 10HP and he had 15HP on my third attempt! He rushed at me, but I quickly grabbed him and used Bowser's Flying Slam, ultimately beating him and unlocking him as a playable character! That was probably the BEST mode EVER in Smash Bros. Ultimate!
Yea, fighting Sephi in Smash to unlock him was awesome. I remember the Sephi unveil Smash trailer, everybody was going nuts. Perfect trailer.
@@Saiyan1C Yes, unlocking Sephy that way was truly awesome! OMG! I remember his Smash trailer, too! Best moment ever in history!
You should practice counterstance as it deal much more damage than parry and disorder to switch stance instead of pressing triangle it save few seconds and make your combo much smoother
Cloud: FULL COUNTER!!
You have hands my friend🎩
Lol! Appreciate it.
So THIS is what it looks like when Goku plays FF7 Remake.
I didn't really understand what the frog rings were for.
Guess this answers that question.
There's a Final Fantasy where Frogged Characters are viable, IIRC
What move does Cloud do at 3:29 when he moves side to side swinging?
Looks like Counter-stance to me.
at 2:06 why does disorder stop him using firaga? I never use that ability but does it stagger or something?
Not quite sure why it does, but i think focused thrust works too, it might just be hitting Seph with a sword ability in general. I chose disorder because it does refund some ATB. Hope this helps.
it does, tbh this vid came at the perfect time because im replaying remake and just got to sephiroth last night on hard. Will have to try disorder as an interrupt. Thanks :)@@Saiyan1C
nice nice! above all else, have fun kicking his butt! 💪@@Rane7685
I'd say the same back to you but hard to see how you kick his butt any harder than this. Great work king👑@@Saiyan1C
UPDATE: beat him first attempt tonight. Thanks a lot. Used a lot of inspiration from this vid@@Saiyan1C
Rebirth is so soooon! What's the little double hit counter Cloud is doing? Not sure I've ever seen that before.
Hell yea! We better be getting that sweet Rebirth demo in a couple of days haha. The double hit counter is punisher followed by counter stance.
Ill be honest i also dont use counter that often...until i fight the final boss.. the spirit has too many hit check so i need to focus and not waste time, then sepiroth makes dodge sometimes useless with his wide range attacks. Was suprised to see some people dont play like this also
Yea Sephiroth almost forces Cloud to counter.
When i first played remake, i never used materia. I literally only did slashes and abilities. Cloud i basically only used braver and i dont remember anyone else but i literally only slashed in that game. Idk how i did that cause i use magic so much now on rebirth
The ultimate battle..girth vs length
Hahah SP reference that episode killed me
Underrated comment 😂🎉
Why are Aerith and Tifa in Frog Status?
They have enfeeblement rings equipped, because...it's personal lol
Honestly i hated hardmode only for the fact that i felt like i had to do it cus some stuff is "locked" behind the mode
The only thing that was really odd was that the items were completely redundant and you couldn't use them on hard mode just felt off that you could pick up and collect potions and phoenix downs but not use them
Wow, awesome!
Thank you!
Cloud fights Sephirot after finishing side quest in Sekiro World 😂
clouds hp being lucky 7777's at 2:28 😉🤣🤣
A ff7 and ff13 crossover should be done
1:50 What was the frog doing?
Lore Accurate Cloud
What’s the purpose of enemy skill master materia? I don’t get it.
Gives you access to unique abilities that will come in handy in certain situations.
COME, CLOUD
You definitely got some mad skills...even after so many playthroughs I'm still not this good yet😂
You got this!
This was for xbox series x? Because I just realise the buttons a while back
PC, I’m using an Xbox controller
Nice, but I always found Sephiroth easier than The Harbringer of Fate .
If we are talking difficulty then the Combat training against Pride and Joy is the most difficult challenge for me but only because of Bahamut. If we are talking nemisis in Remake then it is any form of Bahamut. I just have my problems with him and fate Bahamut.
But nothing is as difficult as the Push and Pull- Up challenges... The Tifa one took me 6 hours to beat.
Harbinger is just a filthy unfair battle. On my first playthrough, Bahamut definitely felt harder than Sephiroth. On Hard mode, I’d say Sephiroth has the potential to be much harder if you keep your distance (especially P3 - Lightning Infusion). I guess he really likes Cloud and will go easier on you if you stay with close combat 😂
The Yuffie 50,000 point box challenge thou!
@@Saiyan1C But let's be honest the introduction of the PS5 version and the buff to synergy including the other free stuff you just get giftet like the Carbuncle Materia made the gaame all in all easier.
yes the 3 fate hits like a fucking trunks i manage to only die to hell house 3 times cause i got tonberry the first time around , was not expecting that loll , then onmy 2nd I change weapon or something and the materia didnt comes equip or some shit , i could have reset there but still went into fighting it, and then finally i got tonberry at the very end of last phase with a double kill on cloud and aerith with both tonberry hitting each character in that 1 hit K0 . But even if i didnt die to harbringer of fate , that fight give me nightmares more then Sephiroth fight
What about Weiss?
How did you do that handstand dodge in punisher mode?
equip the Parry materia, then press R1 + circle while in punisher mode (works in operator mode too)
awesome, thanks 😄@@Saiyan1C
How do you get Tifa come to help first? On my run, tifa came in after Aerith.
It has to do with how you “treat” them throughout the game.
@1C Yeah like he said. I am sure it also involved greatly on the choice you made to help either one of them after falling onto Corneo underground place (the place where you had to fight Corneo's "pet" lol)
So..not that I want to be that “erm actually” kind of guy but
It’s actually decided by what you do in the boss before sephiroth with each character, it’s basically a point system, any character (besides cloud obviously) using an item/ability/spell will gain points and the character with the most points will be the first to join the fight
Besides barret, he has to come second for some reason
Aerith gains a lot more points so she’s almost guaranteed to join the sephiroth battle
@@oeeo6thealatreon118 I had no idea, thank you for the knowledge! 🙏
@@Saiyan1C I’m surprised I actually got to share it lol
How to counter like that? Parry?
Punisher mode followed by the Counterstance ability.
@@Saiyan1C thanks!!
Is that cloud ultimate weapon in remake?
It’s his highest physical attacking one. All the weapons are quite balanced in Remake, hard to pick an “ultimate” one.
I thought fighting like this was just a given on hard mode how do other players complete hard mode? The moment I found out benchs didn’t restore MP I was like alright no magic then
How to counter/parry?
You counter by blocking and activating punisher mode before a hit, so it counts as blocking in punisher mode, right?
Yea, and he also counters if you just switch to punisher mode during that small white flash without needing to press block
@@Saiyan1C Oh thank you. I play Rebirth on classic and love the parry. Sadly theps5 edge ist vastly inferior to xbox elite.
Paralyzed after stroke btw.
The most unbelievable part about this is the dodge button working. How you do that?
Haha, no i-frames sucks. For Aeolian Onslaught it’s better to dodge a bit earlier vs at the last millisecond.
@@Saiyan1C Really? Cause sometimes I would dodge earlier than usual and I swear it's as if the attacks are following me. Like when the dude uses jump on me, that's not jump it's a locked missile.
@@phenast005 it might be too early then
Counterstance is actually op, when you properly anticipate the enemy attack
you can also counter by shifting stance to aggressive with triangle at the right time
Yeah when you mastered counter you are pretty much good to go in this game. I got forced to learn that the more I advanced in hard mode.
Well said.
@@Saiyan1CThank you :)
Que luta de facão do krl!! 😵😮😮😮
Don’t your fingers get tired of all the buttons smashing?
Hmmm.. they better stay outta my dreams
laughed my ass off at "nothing personal" lol
lol! I did too! was hoping Cloud would say "let's dance, a**hole"
DMC player I see! Nice. And this is PS5 I believe?
Most of my content is PS5, this one is on PC lol
Super saiyan Omni kaioken kami 354 ss punisher
Bro? I didn't even know you could parry in this game
It’s such a fun mechanic! I don’t like it in Rebirth as much.
@@Saiyan1C Because in Rebirth there is no counter attack, I like parrying in games but my brain says to me "Parry only when you have to" But I always want to try to Parry everything because it's so satisfying
@@Xion_XIV I’m the same bro, Ghost of Tsushima is a good example
@@Saiyan1C Yeah!? The same for me! I Always wait in GOT for the enemies to Attack me Just to perfect parry them
Why is Tifa a frog
for the solo challenge, can't bear to self-destruct either of the girls
Pardon me for asking but why are Tifa and Aerith frogs?
Haha, it’s part of a Cloud solo challenge. I couldn’t bear to use self-destruct on either girls.
frog 🐸
I cant understand how you manage to parry all the time like you found some way to cancel into it. 🤔
It’s an improved mechanic in Intergrade where holding down the block button in Punisher mode, Cloud has a much faster animation getting back into a “countering stance” from attacks
Wow, como se hace ese contragolpe???
You hit the 'triangle' button to go into 'punisher' mode.
@@Saiyan1C then, just before the enemy hit comes in, press triangle to do like a parry type with counterattack, right?? 😃 thanks sensei!
@@IDELAC8 Yea, the window is pretty wide so you can press a bit earlier to be safe, happy gaming!
@@Saiyan1C thanks for the good information. valuable data. Best regards teacher! :)
Need some help?

6:42 c'est terminé, il n'y a rien à faire je te domine !
Bitrate?
This one is rendered at 81Mbps.
@@Saiyan1C wow
Damn all the games runtime, and all the punishment before and after too? Really is out his gourd
I sense Zack rubbing off
I think I still prefer Remake's counterattack, instant punishment, although Rebirth's I-frames are much appreciated too lol
Okay so- I was the guy that played for story. I set the game on Easy and mashed attack for 40 hours. Let's say I want to learn how to play like this, how should I do it?
You can try to learn from videos like this, but I recommend watching Bltzz's guides for each character first.
@@Saiyan1C I will do exactly this, thanks!
Shouldn't you have a Saiyan as your pic?
Haha it’s Cloud drawn in the Saiyan art style.
No omnislash
They should have left Sephiroth for part 2, are we just going to fight every form each part?
Possibly
Unlucky, you actually hit 7777 health and nothing happened because of it. Sad to see that not in remake, maybe it will return in rebirth lol.
Fingers crossed 🤞🏼
Aerith = lux in lol
The fact that Sephiroth appears so early in the remake is just ridiculous
"I wonder if this will be just like the PS1 game-- *WHY ARE YOU HERE ALREADY"*
7777 health @ 2:29
Nice catch!
This is better than Rebirth's one man
