Was Cloud a good character to appear in Super Smash Bros?

[PAOerfulone]

Is that supposed to be rhetorical or something?!?
Without question, he's a GREAT character for Smash Bros.
He's one of the greatest, most iconic characters in video game history. He can make a damn good fighter. He's the poster boy of one of the greatest, most beloved franchises in all of gaming, which started on the NES, and even has a chance to come back fully with NX.
He deserves it! He's earned it!
