Cloud Strife first appeared in Final Fantasy VII, and he joined Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U as downloadable content in 2015. His Final Smash, Omnislash, recreates his iconic Limit Break from the original role-playing game, with a fast series of sword strikes capped by a devastating final blow. Fans ripped the audio from gameplay footage and shared it across soundboards and editing communities, where it became shorthand for an overpowered finishing move. It remains popular because it instantly signals a decisive, cinematic victory.
