Ryu Hayabusa and Ayane vs Cloud Strife and Tifa Lockhart

After the Geostigma and Deepground episodes, things are getting back to normal in Edge.

However, ex-SOLDIER (in his mind, anyway) Cloud Strife and ex-AVALANCHE member Tifa Lockhart take on the Hayabusa Super Ninja and the strung-out lilac-haired kunoichi.

To counter the ninpo magic, both Cloud and Tifa have Magic Materia (Thunder for Tifa while Cloud has Fire Materia)

Stage: Midgar Ruins

Cloud and Tifa: A.C. versions in appearance and fighting styles, but their stats are FFVII level if not at the max.

Ryu: Ninja Gaiden version

Ayane: DOA4 version

Er...can't say for sure. Ayane curbstomps Tifa though. Cloud's tough. A maxxed out Cloud vs a maxxed out Ryu Hayabusa...ugh...damn the fight would be awesome.

Have you seen Tifa move in Advent Children? She could have won against Yazoo if he hadn't have that stupid gauntlet. She's just as fast as Ayane.

Yes I've seen Advent Children. Tifa would not have defeated Loz even if he didn't have his gauntlet. His speed just overwhelmed her and he took every single one of her limit breaks without breaking a sweat.

cloud with all powers from ff7 would stomp ryu haya, would just use chaos magic and wipe ryu and ayane

Well yeah. Any char from FF7 with all that materia would pretty much beat anyone.

In this fight, for me, it's a question of who I hate more, FF7 charcters, or DOA characters. And I'm proud to say after consideration, that DOA is far worse than FF7 IMO. I'd say Cloud takes this anyway. And Tifa is pretty badass in AC, and in the game. My money's on the AVALANCHE crew.

As far as I'm concerned, Cloud and Tifa lose this fight, badly.

Ryu and Ayane take this. Tifa would go down first. Cloud would be a bit of a challenge but he won't be able to handle both simultaneously.

Ninja Gaiden duo takes this.

Cloud & Tifa 65% - 35% Ryu & Ayane

I think the fact cloud has a weapon might give him the edge, so he doesn't have to pummel, as much slice. Plus the materia, they have the edge in my opinion.

I meant Clouds particular weapon, kinda lethal.

Sides, they slice and kick, not dependant on their weapon like cloud is

And how is it more lethal? Its size makes the attacker slow and a bit more clumsy.

I'm just saying, his not slow and clumy in AC.

But if you'd give Cloud a smaller weapon, his attacks would become a whole lot faster, just look at him when he slayed Seph, he was using his smaller swords then. His normal sword makes his attacks slower.

It can be either, he can break it up and use 2 weapon or the the built up one, First Sword rocks

Oh, yeah, I remember now, but his large sword would still put him in an disadvantage, if you ask me.

By the way, back to the match, cloud wins haya, why? because obviously hayabusa would not expect cloud to pull of that 5 sword attack as he did in AC. Cloud curbstomps hayabusa, then turns and pwns ayane.

Speed need not always be the factor, sidious in the EU can move faster than the eye can see, but does that mean he pwns? No, just a little example
