How much to balance the mod?
Schmampus 18 Nov, 2023 @ 12:27am 
Somewhat unrelated question: Do any of your characters have Break the Targets stages?

It is such a sad thing when characters are just gone, people hounded the og creator of Cloud for using mixels when it was a high effort character based on card saga wars, one of the most ambitious and impressive fluid sprites, we got squiggly and Speneli back, it's good to see another long dead character back in the current greatest fighting game. Yes I said it, eventually fraymakers may dwarf roa, but currently it's roa steam workshop

As of Nov. 11th, the spell and limit break system are too cheap (resource wise). Most spells cost too little. Haste's effect last long enough for the mp spend to cast it to be back by the time you can cast it again. Oddly enough, Death seems to be the most balanced spell.
Limit breaks themselves charge fast enough when I look down to check how much I have, its usually at omnislash already.

Everyone: NERF THIS CHAR BLAH BLAH BLAH
Me: I just murdered a braindead Zettaburn main.
Geo 6 Nov, 2023 @ 7:30pm 
so your telling me people will create cloud as a character, a cool character with a big ass sword. but nobody will make guts from berserk, an even COOLER guy with a even BIGGER ASSER sword. serious bullshit.

I also have to disagree, his ariels work really well on cloud, and his forward air is supposed to be his back air from smash.
Fullmetal Gamer 5 Nov, 2023 @ 6:15pm 
Great character, but you might want to lower the MP gauge down to 50 for balancing reasons, and make the Limit attacks a little less strong ( or raise the meter for them ). He is definitely a little too strong.
Coqui Argento 5 Nov, 2023 @ 10:47am 
He's really fun but I agree he seems too strong. The idea of having various spells you can cycle through with taunt is awesome and really fun, and his spritework is really well done. However, I think his aerial moves are too uninspired, they are too similar except for downair
ViorbyX 4 Nov, 2023 @ 12:29am 
Cloud is very cool and still imbalanced. The idea of making his taunt a menu is great but he has a lack of actual taunt. 10/10
Fullmetal Gamer 3 Nov, 2023 @ 6:43pm 
FINALLY STANDARD CLOUD IS IN RIVALS ! ! !
Aperson 3 Nov, 2023 @ 10:17am 
I mean we have Baldi who plays like Cloud so...
Pikaverse24 3 Nov, 2023 @ 10:15am 
now there needs to be a Smash Version of Cloud Strife
Aperson 3 Nov, 2023 @ 10:03am 
This is a remake of that Cloud.
mdesaleah 3 Nov, 2023 @ 7:07am 
Wasn't there a previous version of Cloud that was much better but got removed for some reason?

Whatever happened to that?
Pikaverse24 2 Nov, 2023 @ 10:12am 
finally someone made Cloud Strife
Pikaverse24 2 Nov, 2023 @ 10:12am 
huh, not the smash version
francesco734 31 Oct, 2023 @ 1:23pm 
It would be a challenge to lose a single stock with this character lol broken as hell but he could be a great character with some changes
CycloneSekkaio 31 Oct, 2023 @ 10:54am 
Ima sum up Cloud's spells for you.

haha funi combo's! Death is a gamble. Flames are op! (Neutral air is super busted too) omg 4 ultimates? Ice SUCKS, wind is sometimes good. Cloud used Haste, Cloud's speed was boosted drastically! ehehe black hole :steammocking: Pikachu used Thunderbolt, he then combo's his opponent and shows NO MERCY OH MY GOODNESS! Bio is too slow. Cure needs to be buffed tbh.

Anyways Cloud is a busted character, the only mod (that is not super op) that I could beat lvl 9 Goku with was Cloud anyways. Neutral air is inSANE for combo's and such. You will mostly be killing with strong's, flare, sometimes death, and lvl 2+ limit moves.
Firich 31 Oct, 2023 @ 10:11am 
gen from street fighter would be so unique with his 2 styles in rivals i hope you will make him some day
welovehomeschool 31 Oct, 2023 @ 8:21am 
can you make sephiroth next for rivals workshop
WolfboomZ 31 Oct, 2023 @ 7:28am 
While people complain about this. They gotta remember this is George's work. Go make your own lol. But in all seriousness fun char, a bit broken but that's pretty much your style there when it comes to fun. I am just glad its not another smash bros rip off.
Scar-Bearer 31 Oct, 2023 @ 7:25am 
This character is really cool, really feels like a well made character, REALLY fun to play AS... and REALLY broken...

- Limit breaks 3 and 4 are basically insta kills - keep these as aether modifiers or the smash buddy I'd say but they really don't belong on the base character...
- MP Regens SO quickly off combos (that are easy to pull off as some people have already commented on) and also auto regens, allowing you to have the entire match alternate between dmg over time effects and hard hitting, long reaching moves.
- The comet and "death" spells are broken... honestly even the fireball and poison should likely have double the mp requirment and some kind of cooldown. (Poison does 20% by itself...)
-------- Maybe some kind of ATB system similar to FF7 remake could act as a universal nerf to both Limit Breaks and spells? Requiring that you build up ATB through dealing and taking damage so you can't just "mag dump" fireballs at the enemy - then land one smash to kill?
Quantumleaper NEO 31 Oct, 2023 @ 5:56am 
Man this character is fun to play with. But probably not fun to play against.

As a disclaimer I'm not an expert on balance but I'd suggest increasing knockback (base or growth or both) on most moves, because a lot of stuff just combos so well into each other i'm carrying everyone into the blastzone. Kill power is rather low but when you get the opponent to 200% so easily, I think increasing knockback would be the best move.

Furthermore, most MP moves are just too good, the rate at which you can cast Fire should justify increasing the cost twofold at least. It's sound foresight to have cost attached to two of the special moves as they're this good, but when even the normals are so busted, that makes little difference.
Aperson 31 Oct, 2023 @ 5:17am 
He kind of feels like Hero but with Ike's sword lol.
keblakev 31 Oct, 2023 @ 1:27am
