Deathblow and Added cut... If it connects, it's like having 3x cut, fairly early in the 2nd disc, and if D.Blow misses, you STILL get the standard attack... (I COULD have just said Ultima and quadra magic, but it's too predictable...)

Well, for this, I had to boot up my game, I hope it doesn't go unappreciated!
...Actually, I went for full materia set-ups instead, I hope that's okay. I went just a teensy bit overboard, which is why I needed everyone to have their Ultimate Weapons (even though some of them aren't very good), and everyone's packing a Wizard Bracelet. It's weak, but it has the right amount of linked slots. Every materia has been mastered, so that Double Cut allows 4x-Cut to be used, and Slash-All has become Flash instead, et cetera.
Cloud
Double Cut + Long Range; W-Item + HP Plus; Master Command + HP Absorb; Master Command + MP Absorb
Master Summon + W-Summon; Master Magic + W-Magic; Phoenix + Final Attack; Odin + Added Effect
There's nothing ultimately clever about this set-up, the only valid combinations in this set-up ensure that Cloud absorbs HP as well as MP with every attack, is immune to instant-Death, and if something hits him for 9999 damage even while he's in the back-row, Phoenix will make him supernaturally unkillable. It's not fancy, but it works like a charm. The Long Range effectively doubles his defense and allows him to hit flying enemies, far and between as those might be.
Yuffie
Slash-All + Mega-All; Master Command + MP Absorb; Master Magic + MP Turbo; Master Summon + MP Turbo
W-Item + W-Magic; W-Summon + Enemy Skill; Revive + Final Attack; HP Plus + MP Plus
Again, nothing that'll blow your socks off, Yuffie can either use instant-death versus all, or Morph versus all which also does heaps of damage, considering it's the Conformer she's packing. She can't leech HP with this set-up, but she knows a guy who can, so she can just Mime Cloud. If there's enough left to leech, that is. If not, she can use magic and items to keep herself from bleeding to death.
Cid
W-Magic + Mega-All; Master Command + MP Absorb; Master Magic + MP Absorb; Master Summon + HP Absorb
Magic Plus + Speed Plus; HP Plus + MP Plus; Destruct + Added Effect; Revive + Final Attack
Cid relies on MP to do a lot of damage with the Venus Gospel, so I made it so that he'd always have loads of MP. And I also made sure he'd put the MP to good use if and when he'd attack with it. I could've omitted the Magic Plus and Speed Plus if I had boosted his stats more in the Gelnika, but after maxing out Cloud and Yuffie, I'd seen enough of the Gelnika or so I figured!
If you thought the above combinations were cliched, I still had bucketloads of materia left, so I distributed them among the rest of the characters, and their set-ups are even less inspired! Sit back, if you please;
Tifa
Double Cut + Long Range; Deathblow + HP Absorb; HP Plus + MP Plus; Steal + Counter
Ultima + Quadra Magic; Contain + MP Turbo; Destruct + All; Luck Plus + Enemy Skill
Vincent
Slash-All + W-Summon; Speed Plus + Speed Plus; Speed Plus + Magic Plus; HP Plus + Luck Plus;
W-Item + Enemy Skill; Restore + All; Bahamut-ZERO + Typoon; Knights of the Round + HP Absorb
Barret
Shield + Ultima; Mega-All + Alexander; HP Plus + MP Plus; Luck Plus + Speed Plus
Comet + Quadra Magic; Contain + Quadra Magic; Time + Steal as well; Cover + Counter Attack
Red XIII
Double Cut + Enemy Skill; Hades + Added Effect; HP Plus + MP Plus; Speed Plus + Speed Plus
Mime + Counter; Steal + Steal as well; Manipulate + Sense; Luck Plus + Long Range
And, last and least...
Cait Sith
Deathblow + Added Cut; Deathblow + HP Absorb; HP Plus + MP Plus; Speed Plus + Long Range
Comet + MP Turbo; Gravity + HP Absorb; Exit + Steal as well; Shield + Slash-All
Well, there you go. They're not the best combinations imaginable; or even the best combinations I could think of, but Cloud, Yuffie and Cid are pretty much indestructible with this; the rest was just for kicks.

Wow, that was a long list. Thanx for all that. I hope some others will also still be able to think of some great combinations as well.

Well, I'd say it's a shame that doesn't work, but - 4x-Cut already targets all enemies, so it's okay. And hey, it still works wonders!

re: Great materia combos...

Hmmm... For some reason my amazing combinations are a littlebit different from most of yours. This is what I equip on my characters when I haven't mazed out their stats, but I've mastered a lot of materia:
Cloud: Master Magic+All Master Command+HP absorb Master Command+MP absorb W-Summon+W-Magic
Armor: DeBarrier+Added Effect Final attack+Phoenix HP plus+Speed plus Speed Plus+MP plus
That's all I can list for now, I've got to go somewhere.

Ok I got some here they are. Gravity+Quadra magic(against Emerald weapon). Pheonix+Final Attack. KOTR+Mp absorb I think that is good because every attack has no draw backs and then I can use other summons. Bahamut Zero+HP absorb. W-Summon+ any summon+ mime (even if you don't have enough summon power the mime person will still attack). That's all I have right now.
-------------------
Is that what you call a get away? So tell me what you got away with.

and it isn't like it's impossible anyway, it's just that you'd end up with a very low HP, so you wouldn't survive a hit from any really strong enemies... Then again, they'd have to be able to survive you using KOTR four times in a row first.

I like to have sixteen mastered Counter Attacks on Barret with the Missing Score equipped. Whenever hit, you do sixteen attacks back at approximately 81/16 of normal damage.

No one said that, you silly man! I know, but still, I'll bet you wish!  Anyways I like this set-up... counter=mime, counter=mime, counter=mime, counter=mime, counter=mime, counter=mime, counter=mime, counter=mime. Use omnislash, wait for retaliation... then BAM! They get hit with 8 MORE Omnislashes! Emerald is quaking in his little green booties! (Although, getting that many mime materia took a while... it was worth it!  )

If we're going for outrageous counter-attacks, my money's on eight Counters linked to eight mastered Double Cuts instead. Sure, it's ridiculous, but entirely gratifying!
