Inferno

==How Inferno joined the Tourney==
Although no one knows when or where Inferno first appeared, he definitely exists. He took the shape of a sword in order to devour more souls and came to possess individuals to further his unholy cause. In his sword form, Inferno came to be known as SoulEdge. Those who held the SoulEdge were unable to escape from the curse of his evil powers. He continued to devour in darkness the souls of those who are led astray. Although he burns fiercely with the anguish and regret of the souls he had devoured, his blade shines with an icy gleam.
==How to Unlock==
The player must complete one of the following requirements to unlock Inferno:

For both of these options, the player must brawl Inferno on the Molten Mount stage. After defeating Inferno, the announcer will say "Someone else has joined the Tourney!" after a Smash Ball appears on the lower-right corner of the screen with a message saying "You can now use the fire demon, Inferno.".

*Super Smash Bros. Tourney and the sequel features Inferno with an original dialect, making him Mokujin's Soul Calibur counterpart. Coincidentally, both are males in Tourney 1 and both are females in Tourney 2 when English language is selected.
*In Tourney 1, Inferno is voiced in English by the same person who voices Marshall Law, Haohmaru, and Shin Kamiya. In Tourney 2, Inferno is voiced in English by the same person who voices Nina Williams and Mokujin.
*Inferno refers to himself as the Ultimate Inferno. Most characters in the SSBT series refer to him as just  the Inferno; however, the only character who refers to him as the Ultimate Inferno in Tourney 1 is Lili from Tekken. In Tourney 2, there are two characters who refer to him as the Ultimate Inferno, those two people being Lili and Tekken's Raven.
