The [[Limit Break]] version of the move involves Cloud unleashing the entire sequence at high speed, regardless of whether it hits anything or whether the player makes additional inputs. These slashes deal much more damage (27% total) and greater knockback than the base version of the move, with the final hit's hitbox also becoming slightly larger.<ref>[https://twitter.com/ruben_dal/status/859110965501206528?lang=en]</ref> The camera will also zoom in on the hit fighter if the final hit connects while time slows down for a split second, similar to {{SSB4|Little Mac}}'s [[KO Uppercut]].

[https://finalfantasy.fandom.com/wiki/Cross-slash_(Final_Fantasy_VII) Cross Slash] is Cloud's second level 1 Limit Break in ''Final Fantasy VII'', which he learns after performing his initial Limit Break, Braver, eight times. It deals 3.25 times the damage of a normal physical attack to one enemy and inflicts paralysis. The usual animation for the attack shows him performing three strikes as opposed to the four strokes needed to write the kanji (''Smash Bros.'' instead has him perform a total of five slashes).

* No matter which direction Cloud faces, the kanji will form in the same orientation — it will not be flipped. This makes it the only move in ''Smash'' to have different hitboxes depending on a character's facing direction. | |||
*Like [[Little Mac]]'s {{h2|Straight Lunge|KO Uppercut}}, the camera zoom effect from a Limit Break Cross Slash will not appear if Cloud is hit on the exact frame the move connects against an opponent. | *Like [[Little Mac]]'s {{h2|Straight Lunge|KO Uppercut}}, the camera zoom effect from a Limit Break Cross Slash will not appear if Cloud is hit on the exact frame the move connects against an opponent. | ||
