|ssdesc=Performs a downwards slash. On contact with an enemy, pressing the special button allows this slash to transition into a series of follow-up slashes, together spelling the kanji {{ja|凶|kyō}} ("misfortune"). The full attack deals high damage and moderate knockback, making it a superb [[punishing]] option at close range. It is weak against shield, however, as all stages of the attack are slow and punishable if missed. Its Limit Break variant results in Cloud unleashing all five strikes with a single input regardless of whether he hits anything. It also noticeably increases both the damage and KO potential of the move, KOing middleweights at 100% from the center of the stage, while reducing the move's ending lag to such an extent that it becomes nearly impossible to punish without being right behind Cloud as he unleashes the move. Additionally, Limit Cross Slash deals a high amount of [[shield damage]], and the final hit has a slightly larger hitbox than the default.<ref>[https://twitter.com/ruben_dal/status/859110965501206528 | |ssdesc=Performs a downwards slash.

In doubles, Cloud was considered by many players to be [[broken]] enough to ban, as he was banned at the above tournaments. Thanks to his many advantages, Cloud players consistently won ''Smash 4'' doubles tournaments after his release. This was evident with Cloud [https://intheloop837.wordpress.com/2018/04/09/data-cloud-in-doubles-an-analysis/ being more dominant than Meta Knight in ''Brawl'' singles]. | In doubles, Cloud was considered by many players to be [[broken]] enough to ban, as he was banned at the above tournaments.
