Analysis

In a battle of rematches Cloud was able to extend his victory over Crono while Mario required the final update to take out Samus. Interestingly enough, this is the first meeting between Cloud and Mario since 2002 where Mario used the power of Super Mario Sunshines release and a rally to defeat Cloud. For several contests after, Cloud showed that he would easily defeat Mario in a rematch. Fast forward 16 years and the match has become a bit more debatable.

With the way Mario defeated Sephiroth earlier this contest it is hard to imagine him struggling with Cloud, I doubt many of us would take Cloud to reach around 60% before SFF against Sephiroth. Clouds performance against Crono however, is probably not too far on what I would expect Mario to do. Cloud did have Super Smash Bros. 4 to boost his strength which would help him against Crono, but with Mario that may not be the case. I do feel a bit bad for Cloud fans; if he were to lose here, I doubt he would defeat Mario until possibly the Final Fantasy VII remake.
