KMC Forums - Tidus (FFX KH) VS Cloud (FFVII)

Tidus is the main character in Final Fantasy X.

Tidus is the classical Warrior character of the party and uses basic Swords and Shields during battle. His stats are fairly normal for an allrounder: he lags behind Auron in terms of strength (explained in the game as being "inexperienced with the sword", if you cast Scan on him) and defense but makes up for it with high Agility and Evasion growth allowing him to easily dispatch the speedier fiends. Tidus begins the game with no commands but will quickly learn the abilities Cheer, Flee, Haste and Delay Attack, which are very helpful in the early battles.

He is an energetic boy who is confident in his athletic ability

Swordplay

* Spiral Cut - Tidus does a 360 degree spin in the air, and unleashes it at one enemy. Under water, Tidus doesn't do the spin. Tidus starts with this Overdrive.

* Slice & Dice - Tidus does 6 attacks at random on all enemies. Under water, Tidus does the same thing. If only one enemy is present, it will become the target of all six attacks. Tidus learns this Overdrive after executing 10 successful Overdrives.

* Energy Rain - Tidus jumps off one enemy, getting air, then charging his weapon while in mid-air. He then unleashes non-elemental beams of energy on all enemies, making smaller enemies do a back flip. Under water, Tidus just unleashes the beams of energy. Tidus learns this Overdrive after executing 30 successful Overdrives.

* Blitz Ace - Tidus charges, then leaps at one enemy in Slow-motion. He executes 8 sword attacks on the enemy, plants his sword in the ground and leaps into the air, using the hilt of the planted sword as leverage. Then, according to how you treated the female party members, (this is called the affection quest) one of them would throw a Blitzball at Tidus (or, if the female character is not available in the battle, or KO'd, it would come out of nowhere), who would then kick it at the enemy with the Sphere Shot. The overdrive meter appears before this final shot is taken. If the bar is not stopped correctly, Tidus will miss the blitzball and fall to the ground. If the overdrive is performed under water, there (naturally) isn't any ground to plant the sword in, so instead, he will simply swim away and perform the Sphere Shot with sword in hand. Tidus learns this Overdrive after executing 80 successful Overdrives.

Cloud Strife is the main protagonist in both Final Fantasy VII and Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children. He also appears in the spin-off games Final Fantasy VII: Dirge of Cerberus and Crisis Core -Final Fantasy VII-.
