| Vodacixi said: If it's base Shulk (Monado I) Cloud stomps due to the Monado not being able to cut through people. If it's Monado II, Shulk wins after one hell of a battle due to premonition, speed and shield (although Cloud also has some chances of winning here due to Materia, superior sword skills and other things). If it's Shulk at his prime this wouldn't even be called a battle: Shulk does with Cloud whatever he wants to do without any possible resistance on Cloud's part. At certain part of Xenoblade, Shulk is an almost if not omnipotent being with absolute controll over anything and everything. |
Shulk isn't like you described at the end of the game but it doesn't matter. After the first power up, shulk could make the monado bend to his will and cut through cloud and the buster sword with a single hit. Visions, monado arts, blade size of the monado... only add to it.
