Intro[]
(Cue Death Battle Theme Song)
Wiz: Since the Middle Ages, Many nobel warriors use lots of weapons in their hands. But no other weapons are as common in loyalty then the steel blade of a sword.
Boomstick: But while many people control their sword in battle, Sometime the sword themselves filled with evil can control even the most heroic of people, Turning them into what everyone have feared.
Wiz: Prince Arthas Menethil, The Lich King of Azeroth
Boomstick: And Nightmare, The Possessed Soul of Siegfried. He's Wiz and I'm Boomstick.
Wiz: And it's our job to analyze their weapons, armor, and skills to find out who would win a DEATH BATTLE.
Arthas[]
(Cue World of Warcraft - Login Screen)
Wiz: Long ago in the Kingdom of Lordaeron, The son of King Terenas Menethil II "Prince Arthas Menethil" was training to be a Paladin under the helping hands of Uther the Lightbringer. All started off going so well for Arthas.

Boomstick: Unfortnally Arthas was not the nicest person in his crew, Taking his job seriously and become rude to his fellow men. What makes it worst is that despite killing a necromancer name Kel'Thuzad, A plague was spread all over the land and Arthas, Refusing to let any innocent lives be an infected zombie, Goes on a killing spree againt the innocent lives to stop those infected.
(Cue World of Warcraft - Arthas, My Son)
Wiz: Having enough with the action caused by the Dread Lord "Mal'Ganis", Arthas and his troops set off to find a legendary runeblade that hold a terrible curse. This weapon would be known as Frostmourne.
Boomstick: After giving his soul away and having lots of his men killed in battle, Arthas obtained Frostmourne and killed Mal'Ganis in one slice. However this would come in a price. Arthas would be more colder inside, Attack his own kingdom and even murder his own father. He would later go by a new life as the most feared knight of all of Azeroth.

Hell, He can even RAISE THE DEAD and have a whole army of them to fight for his side.
Wiz: The Frostmourne also boost Arthas Strength, Intelligent and Stamina, Making him a very powerful foe in battle, Even against a couple of noble warriors who were daring enough to try to pass him.

Weakness
-Barely survived the ambush
-Arrogant
-Summons can be defeated easily
-Frostmourne can be broken apart

Nightmare begin sending large waves of flame and lightning at Arthas as he try to block it off. Arthas summon Drudge Ghouls and Shambling Horrors to fight by his side against Nightmare. Nightmare would send a strong slice against the Ghouls and Horrors as Arthas perform Remorseless Winter, Sending a large winter storm at the area.
Nightmare: You think this storm will stop me? I faced many warriors stronger then you'll ever be.
An Undead Dragon fly by, Breathing icy cold flames at Nightmare as he block it, sending his blast back at it to bring it down.
Arthas: It not just the cold that I hold in this battle.

K.O.!
Soul Edge is seen on the ground, Impaled by Frostmourne as it turning cold blue as Arthas hold the fallen helmet of Nightmare. Laughing in his victory.
Results[]
(Cue World of Warcraft - Invincible)
Boomstick: Well it’s good to know that Arthas got more souls for his sword now.
Wiz: While both Arthas and Nightmare are incredibly strong to hold each other off and despite Night Terror increasing it to push Arthas back, Arthas have way more advantage to use against Nightmare in both feats and abilities.
Boomstick: Nightmare can conjurer up flames and lightning from his sword for a strong powerful blast, But Arthas not only does Arthas many more ability such as frost and shadow, But their twice as powerful in comparison, With moves like Necronic Pleage that can do 238 damages every fiveseconds for 15 seconds. That basically 714 damages.
Wiz: And despite both sword able to be shattered by weapons like Ashbringer and Soul Calibur that were both holy weapons, Frostmourne could only be destroyed by the Ashbringer. With Soul Edge on the other hand, It have been destroyed by many other things. And example would come from Olcadan, A lesser known mimic character of the Soul Calibur series who use his bare hands alone shatter Soul Edge.
Boomstick: And this was a man with a bird for a head who didn't even appear in anything else during the Soul Calibur era.
Wiz: And with Fury of Frostmourne rendering Inferno spirit to no longer be released, Arthas had manage to put an end to Soul Edge wrath.
Boomstick: It seem like The Lich King was the true Nightmare of Soul Edge.
Wiz: The Winner is The Lich King Arthas
