One of Sephiroth's most defining traits is his range.

Notably, Sephiroth's short hop is tied with Steve's for the lowest in the game, which aids him very well in the neutral game. In the air, Sephiroth's overall jumping force and air acceleration are both average, he has slow air speed and below-average air friction, and yet he has the 11th fastest falling speed and above-average gravity. Despite his height, Sephiroth's crouch is deceptively low. He has the 14th slowest walking speed, yet his dashing speed and traction are both above-average, with the former being marginally faster than Hero's. Sephiroth's attributes are fairly polarized he is a tall fighter, but is tied with Kirby, Mewtwo, Pikachu and Olimar as the 7th lightest fighter in the game.

Lastly, the Winged Form is a high-risk, high-reward fighter ability: due to being a comeback-oriented mechanic, it requires Sephiroth to be at a noticeable disadvantage in order to be accessed, and upon dissipating, it will be able to be reactivated only after Sephiroth is KO'd.ĭespite his shortcomings, Sephiroth is seen as a high tier in the current metagame, with players such as KEN and Ned showing what he is capable of. Sephiroth's long range also comes at the cost of sluggish frame data and the Masamune's hitboxes being very narrow to compensate for their long range. His very light weight and tall hurtbox collectively make him easy to hit and KO in a similar vein to Mewtwo. However, Sephiroth has some glaring weaknesses.

Sephiroth's Winged Form also grants him increased attack power, higher mobility, super armor on his smash attacks, and a second double jump throughout the form's duration. Sephiroth's greatest strengths are his great KO power and long range the latter of which is courtesy of his Masamune, which grants him the ability to apply constant pressure to his opponents without having to risk fighting in close-quarters combat. Sephiroth is ranked 27th out of 82 on the current tier list, placing him at the end of the A+ tier. Toshiyuki Morikawa, who has voiced Sephiroth as of Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children, reprises his role as the character in all regions. However, Sephiroth could also become playable as early as December 17th, 2020 by defeating him in the limited-time Sephiroth Challenge that was made available from December 17th-22nd. He was revealed on December 10th, 2020 at The Game Awards 2020, and was released as part of Challenger Pack 8 on December 22nd, 2020 as the third downloadable character of Fighters Pass Vol. Ultimate, and the third fighter from Square Enix after Cloud and Hero.
