How Astaroth joined the Tourney[]

Astaroth had been unconsciously fighting the thoughts of him being created in the image of the "White Giant". Perhaps because of this, his body has been twisted to the point where he no longer looks remotely human. But then he finally found the White Giant and almost killed him. Suddenly, he realized that the Smash Bros. Tourney was about to start and signed up just in time by stealing the invitation of one Heavy D!.

Classic Mode Ending Movie[]

Astaroth had defeated his rival Xiaoyu and Master Hand then raised his axe Kulutues with “Yes! Now all of the universe will fall before the might, of Astaroth!” Then laughs evilly but the USA Sports Team comes by, wanting revenge as Heavy D! yells off screen “Hold on, one damn minute!” When the monster turns to fight them , Heavy first announces “Let me congratulate you for winning the competition, but you just took my invitation! You're gonna pay big time!” Lucky Glauber next tells the monster, “I lost my invitation, but I still wanna fight!” Brian Battler bangs his chest and yells “Yeah! We want our spotlight back!” They then run at him yelling “Give us our spotlight back right now!” But Astaroth readies Kulutues, says “Don't expect to die peacefully!” then swings his axe and the Sports team are comically knocked away into the sky. Astaroth then yells the sky “I am the ultimate. I have the power to destroy even Soul Edge!”

Special Attacks[]

Poseidon Tide Rush (Neutral)[]

Astaroth spins five times while holding Kulutues vertically in front of him while laughing evilly. This move was also used in Monty Oum's fan-made series Dead Fantasy by Ninja Gaiden character Rachel in the second episode.

Double Discus (Side)[]

Astaroth sweeps the stage's floor twice with Kulutues.

Flying Divide (Up)[]

Astaroth high-jumps forward and smashes anyone in his path, dealing 35% damage.

Dark Tamer (Down)[]

Astaroth performs a low kick and swings Kulutues right at his opponent.

Cestemus Doctrine (Hyper Smash)[]

Astaroth shouts "Damn you! Maggot...", then he grabs his opponent and slams them to the ground while saying "Take THIS!". He then spins them on the ground with Kulutues as he says "I'LL CUT YOU TO SHREDS!!!!!", creating a fire vortex.

Eternal Damnation (Final Smash)[]

Astaroth asks his opponent "You think you've WON?!", then he headbutts one of his opponent twice to knock that opponent to the floor, slams his weapon into his opponent, scurries that opponent around the area while saying "I'LL CUT YOU TO SHREDS!!!!!", and then launches it away while shouting "YOU SCUM!!!". This doesn't cause an automatic K.O., but it still causes heavy damage (approximately 300% damage).
