It's actually Adamantium AND Vibranium alloy.
I realize that's what has been published in the Marvel Handbook in the past and that even some writers went along with it, but they don't always get everything right. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Captain...uctible_shield

As for Cloud being able to pull out the win, any ability of his that involves hitting Cap with his sword won't work. That Shield can take it all with a smile. Heck, it could probably take most magic attacks too, so Cloud would be dead before he even realized he couldn't hurt the shield.
