Goddamn I love Rebirth. Best combat ever. Perfect combat system. The changes they made to Cloud from REMAKE to REBIRTH made Cloud perfect. Not too tanky but quick agile nimble and pretty strong.
It is a pretty amazing combat system one thing that bothers me is Phoenix going off screen but it's not that bad. Actually the main thing that bothers me is you can't practice certain flights without going through others. You can practice all the summons but for Gilgamesh you'd have to make a separate save I know a speed run through the game or just an easy story run takes like 7 hours but I'm not entirely sure with proto relic how long will it take
The game isn't that hard lol there's games that exist with much harder executions. This ia nothing compared to some fighting games out there. No nerfs needed.
@@mSierraEngineer I know, but I have a lot of friends who have a hard time doing the challenges, I completed everything but they didn't so I believe it's difficult for casual players
I see a lot of videos on this fight. This was the first 1 that impressed me. All the other ones were spamming magic with unlimited ATB with yuffie brumal form and arcane ward. This is how hardcore gamers play. Nicely done. Sonic boom is OP If you used prime mode you probably would have killed a little faster
I was wondering about prime mode and if there was a reason they weren't using it, regardless it was really good, waiting for a madman to do an Aeirht solo one. Seen someone get gilgamesh low haven't had time to give it a go
THIS. THIS comment right here is how I've been feeling watching the other runs of this. I'm also going to go for a WR of some kind but seeing people just spam with Yuffie and cheese their way to 1:41 isn't entertaining. This is how most of people will be, trying to brute force with a mix of simple knowledge of patterns and keeping the team topped off. Solo is another thing in of itself. This is awesome man
Did you have Party Level 10 and therefore all of Cloud's folios or were you missing some? I know people haven't been mentioning folios in their builds so I thought I'd ask. When I beat this, I only had party level 9. But I haven't done a solo run of this challenge like I've seen many others do.
It would be cool to be able to practice Sephiroth 1v1, but having to get through all the other rounds just to have a shot means I don't think I'll ever bother.
Is the buster sword the best when maxed out at weapon level 9 ? because there’s better attack damage swords or do you just have it equipped just for style lol it does look the best. I noticed also that you heal more with sonic boom because you have magic up
@@Avtenom Oh that's interesting, how often were you using counterstance? Like how many times did you use it per enemy? I have disliked that ability but that is in part due to me preferring use my shortcuts for other stuff I guess and not taking the time to get good with it.
What was the point of the magic yo materia if you didn’t plan to use spells? Same with genju gloves I feel like if you’re not using spells you’d rarely break damage cap
@@Avtenom oh no I get that, what I mean is like wouldn’t other accessories or material have helped you more? I want to try this challenge myself I was just a bit confused on why you included those in your build
@@Avtenom He used that spinning 2 ATB physical attack once per enemy give or take...it was dealing like 20/30k damage or whatever. Also, the Magic Up will increase the damage from long ranged attacks for Cloud although I don't think this guy used that attack particularly often. I didn't know extra magic would increase the elemental damage from the elemental materia. That's definitely something I didn't mess around with all that much...I remember it took me forever just to realize Euphie's Ninjutsu was based on her Magic stat. Also it increases the healing he's getting from the Sonic Boom hits(by increasing Sonic Boom damage), although I suppose that in itself is not a huge difference maker. Anyway I guess the title should say 'no spells' but I understand what he means.
My only question is : how the heck do you put this challenge into easy mode?.. Pretty sure the answer is "skill" but I'm asking for a friend, you know.......
Very well done! I have a question.. Since you're good at parrying, why not go for primal mode instead of punisher mode for maximum buff in attack power ?
In a way i think solo might actually be easier since you are not super distracted by everything else going on around (managing everybody's atb, topping up low teammates, and bosses just running around doing their aoes all over the area....). Then you can just pay 100% attention on your game with perfect parrying, lining up abilities to proc skill master, etc..I havent done a solo on this one but did solo back in Remake and its probably gonna feel the same
Hi great video, inspiring for me. it’s one of my last fights to complete for the platinum and sephiroth has my number big time 😂 I’ve noticed cloud stabbing down and forward with the sword during your combos and have rarely seen this during my own game, how are you doing that attack? Is it like a hold square thing? Thanks Edit: an example of the attack is 0:32-0:34
When you are in punisher mode hold down the square button. It gives you fury which increases your damage given and taken. You get a stronger buff if you use this attack while using the ability that upgrades your punisher mode.

Sick Gameplay 👍
It's your fault they won't nerf the game 😂😂😂😂😂

Seeing this made me remember people complaining ff7 rebirth isn't a souls games ( dark souls, Bloodborne, eldening) and people saying git gud
@@tomohirai7378 In my opinion, this shit right here is even better!
@@Jorge_CuevasIt's a lot
It took me days to beat this and you just made it seem easy. Kudos!
4:25 lol,I did the same thing on my solo run and of course,that LB missed. I'm not the only one who came up with such a bad idea😂

@@Alex-ur1io There is Aerith solo. I think by this point all solos have been done. Crazy stuff
@@Alex-ur1io prime mode is good but trying to hit stuff with that long wind up animation is bad🤣

@@Alex-ur1io They're probably just too used to regular Punisher Mode, if it's not broke, don't fix it. Bro was perfect blocking almost nonstop.
Amazing skills and build my man! Hope to be as great as you one day
Please don't do videos like this. It will give the devs more ideas for even harder battles in the next game lmao
Parry block in punisher mode timing is perfect
Just came across your video, good shit. I'm going to give this a try when I get a chance. 💯
truly fought like samurai this is what ff7 rebirth suppose to look like one legitimate way to beat the game
Man I knew the skill gap was gonna be high in this game but I’m impressed more than I thought
Bro this is perfect
to think is struggled with this so much, but now it gives me confidence i can def try it again doing solo runs.
Watching this video is so satisfying. Unfortunately I can't tell the same about playing it by myself LMAO...
This is what fans imagine lore accurate Cloud to be.
GG bro/sis.
watching You makes me realize how much i suck at combat in this game xD sick gameplay bro
How did you do that dodge at 3:18 when titan is about to hit you? Is that a dodge or parry from punisher mode
That's a punisher parry
Did you have Party Level 10 and therefore all of Cloud's folios or were you missing some? I know people haven't been mentioning folios in their builds so I thought I'd ask. When I beat this, I only had party level 9. But I haven't done a solo run of this challenge like I've seen many others do.
I think all is max'ed in this video.
But when i beat it first time, it was not.
It would be cool to be able to practice Sephiroth 1v1, but having to get through all the other rounds just to have a shot means I don't think I'll ever bother.
OH! Sonic Boom ability gives the Bravery buff not the one Cloud shoots when he dodges. Now I see what I been doing wrong lmao
Very nicely done. Bt didn’t u use magic on the 1st fight against kujata?
Thanks. I didn't use any magical spells.
Man i swear everytime i try it they buttfuck me immediately. How are they so chill on your try?????
GG
They are still attacking quite often, the thing is he's able to deal with most of their attacks with his excellent timing.
What’s the build? Doing a shitlod of damage. That barrier fell fast against titan and bahamut
@@mattkramer8426 the build is shown at the end of the video
Very nicely done.
Why no prime mode?
Not like you needed anyway, but just curious.
Thanks. Why would i use prime mode ? Does it have a better berserk damage buff ?
@@Avtenom Yeah. You get sort of a "Level 2" berserk at the end of a heavy attack combo. You can see thee icon is different.
Yeah i noticed the change of icon. But is there a real big difference ?
@@Avtenom While I'm not sure, I've read somewhere it's about 10% more damage. (30% vs 40%)
When you parry the shadow attack from Sephiroth, you switch to operator mode and used the parry touch ?
And you need to count exactly 4 seconds
what do u mean count exactly 4 seconds
Impressive!
Is the buster sword the best when maxed out at weapon level 9 ? because there’s better attack damage swords or do you just have it equipped just for style lol it does look the best. I noticed also that you heal more with sonic boom because you have magic up
I used Buster sword for style yeah.
@Avtenom if not Buster Sword, what’s your suggestion?
Nice parries, so fun to watch.
what does luck do for you in the game?
slightly increases the chance of critical hits
@@codeine_ninja TY!
How is your Bravers doing so much damage, I run the same setup with Braver only doing half as much.
Probably because you don't use Sonic Boom ability and Cloud's berserk buff (Hold square)
This is nuts and absolutestunning skill. I hate to be that guy tho, but isnt using empowerment technically using magic?
No magic means no Magical spell. No MP used.
what are your abilites shortcut mapped to? Like sonic boom and braver and counterstance? can you tell me how you have them mapped? Thanks :D
On the ground : Braver (triangle), Counterstance (circle), Infinity's End (x), Sonic Boom (square)
While airborne : Braver (triangle), Counterstance (circle), Aerial Onslaught (x), Disorder (square).
@@Avtenomthanks and your gameplay is very impressive!
@@Avtenom Oh that's interesting, how often were you using counterstance? Like how many times did you use it per enemy? I have disliked that ability but that is in part due to me preferring use my shortcuts for other stuff I guess and not taking the time to get good with it.
how you immune to physical dmg ?
how does cloud do so much damage? I'm really impressed
What was the point of the magic yo materia if you didn’t plan to use spells? Same with genju gloves I feel like if you’re not using spells you’d rarely break damage cap
The goal of this challenge is not to break damage cap...
@@Avtenom oh no I get that, what I mean is like wouldn’t other accessories or material have helped you more? I want to try this challenge myself I was just a bit confused on why you included those in your build
I think genji glove is very strong. Look at Sephiroth & Alexander.
Magic up increases the damage of every attack cuz i equiped elemental on my sword.
@@Avtenom He used that spinning 2 ATB physical attack once per enemy give or take...it was dealing like 20/30k damage or whatever.

Cloud seems much better in this one
Let’s gooooooo
GGs
Immune/blocking unblockable moves?
Some unblockable moves which are binds or grabs can be perfectly blocked with precision defense focus materia.
He definitely has Genji Gloves Infinity End broke the 9999 damage Cap that's wild
Here I am trying to do this before hard mode so I can run up on bosses with a full limit break
@@PrincessNine big mood
yup that was a big hit and dont forget luck up the more of it the more it crit’s
My only question is : how the heck do you put this challenge into easy mode?..
Pretty sure the answer is "skill" but I'm asking for a friend, you know.......
The real answer is practice and learn every boss.
It's not even perfect parry, this is sorcery !...
Kuddos man, I'll... Tell... My friend.... Ahem 😁
Why the magic up if you’re not using magic?
Because i use elemental materia on my weapon.
@@Avtenom I guess that is better than strength up? It’s an interesting build. I like it.
Both are good
Not bad
I bet tifa and aerith gonna get wet to see this version of cloud, even yuffie 👍🏼
A robot samurai with 4 arms called Gilgamesh, and a sentient Rook called Alexander.
I feel confused.
Why does Odin stop attacking you while you’re attacking Alexander?
He will always leave when he's under 70% of his HP
@@Avtenom awesome thanks. Also, can you give me some tips on parrying? can you parry with triangle when you are in either stance?
You can parry with triangle only when entering in punisher mode.
Dude what is that damage! 😮
The gilgamesh shit was some low key sekiro no hesitation shit
well done, i didnt know you could link enemy skill with hp absorption
It helps a bit.
It is insanely powerful with Plasma Discharge in large groups of enemies.
So many perfect blocks!
Very well done! I have a question.. Since you're good at parrying, why not go for primal mode instead of punisher mode for maximum buff in attack power ?
Sonic boom + berserk buff is OP enough and I also wasn't sure about a better damage buff with Prime mode.
In a way i think solo might actually be easier since you are not super distracted by everything else going on around (managing everybody's atb, topping up low teammates, and bosses just running around doing their aoes all over the area....). Then you can just pay 100% attention on your game with perfect parrying, lining up abilities to proc skill master, etc..I havent done a solo on this one but did solo back in Remake and its probably gonna feel the same
2 summons at a time? Nothing.. to it! Well done
Insane run
*37414* ?!! 6:24😲😲
You can do more than 9999 damage in this game?!! I guess I'll unlock this post endgame, currently on chapter 10.
Yep with Genji Gloves. Pretty sure you have to beat Gilgamesh first
Can you do cloud solo those brutal challenge?
This is better than spamming
420 attack, NICE.
Hi great video, inspiring for me. it’s one of my last fights to complete for the platinum and sephiroth has my number big time 😂

Edit: an example of the attack is 0:32-0:34
When you are in punisher mode hold down the square button. It gives you fury which increases your damage given and taken. You get a stronger buff if you use this attack while using the ability that upgrades your punisher mode.
@@v1zdr1x excellent thanks I’ve held square while using prime mode but I’ll try this too!
Holy shit bro!
What's the difference between perfect parry punisher mode, and using counterstance at perfect timing?
Perfect punisher parry, you are immune from the start of the animation til the end.
With Counterstance, you re only immune at the time of the parry.
He needs to use counterstance for certain things, because punisher cannot parry magic projectiles.
Keep it coming
