Changes from Super Smash Bros. 4

Aesthetics

• As with all veterans returning from SSB4, Cloud's model features a more subdued color scheme. His clothing features subtle detailing. His model and textures otherwise appear unchanged.

Attributes

• Cloud's Limit Break gauge is shown next to his character HUD.

Aerial moves

• Neutral aerial has a smaller hitbox.
• Up aerial's hitbox comes out later, preventing it from hitting grounded opponents.
• Down aerial has a smaller vertical hitbox and has more lag.

Special moves

• Cross Slash has a sleeker design inspired from Dissidia Final Fantasy instead of the brush-like strikes from Smash 4.
• Cloud can now grab the ledge at any point during Climhazzard's downward slash.
• Cloud may not voice out once he manually obtains a full Limit Charge.
• A fully charged Limit Break will lose its charge if it is not used within 15 seconds.
• Climhazzard's downward slash has less endlag.
• Cross Slash deals 4% more damage (19% to 23%)
