Official Biography
 (Don't worry. We don't know what he's saying either.) 

Like the offspring of a tornado and a particularly angry electric razor, the Tasmanian Devil is a spitting, surly ball of manic energy. If you can get him to calm down, they say he’s as sweet and gentle as a kitten, but that’s a pretty big “if.” Taz has a temper that’s outmatched only by his appetite and, trust us, you don’t want to see this Devil when he’s hangry.

Attacks (Ground)

 * Soup's On! (NEUTRAL) - Taz guzzles a pot of soup, CHARGING a spit PROJECTILE. The spit can be aimed up and down and deals TASTY.
 * Well-Seasoned (SIDE) - A combo of salt and pepper seasoning that deals TASTY before transitioning into a tornado spin.
 * Slam-wich (UP) - Taz CHARGES then slams together a sandwich overhead, dealing TASTY. Taz can move while CHARGING.
 * Stomp Stomp Stomp! (DOWN) - Taz CHARGES a stomp that BREAKS ARMOR. The stomp hits further with a longer CHARGE.

Attacks (Air)

 * Soup-er Spinner (NEUTRAL) - Similar to Ground-Neutral, but Taz spins as he spews, hitting enemies backward.
 * Feed the Beast (SIDE) - Taz CHARGES a forward bite.
 * Flying Slam-wich (UP) - Similar to Ground-Up without CHARGE.
 * Sunder Down Under (DOWN) - Taz spins his legs into a tornado and drills downward, BREAKING ARMOR.

Specials (Ground)

 * Chew it Yourself (NEUTRAL) - Taz gulps up enemies, STUNNING them. He can also EAT PROJECTILES, destroying them, and powering up his Down-Special. Repeatedly press down or neutral input to chew enemies, dealing damage. Press up, forward, or back input to spit out enemies. Enemies can STRUGGLE.


 * Taz-nado (SIDE) - Taz spins forward into a tornado, hitting enemies multiple times. If Taz passes an ally, his tornado's duration is increased. Passing an ally gives them a brief FAST MOVEMENT BUFF.
 * Dogpile! Dogpile! (UP) - Taz starts a dogpile PROJECTILE that gradually grows in size. The dogpile hits multiple times after an enemy enters, ending with a powerful finish. On COOLDOWN, Taz will instead jump up and swipe twice.
 * You Spit What You Eat (DOWN) - Taz burps a chewed apple PROJECTILE that deals a small amount of TASTY. If Taz has EATEN A PROJECTILE with his Neutral-Special, he will instead burp out that PROJECTILE, dealing a large amount of TASTY.

Specials (Air)

 * Chew it Yourself (NEUTRAL) - Similar to Special-Ground-Neutral.
 * Taz-nado (SIDE) - Similar to Special-Ground-Side with more upward movement.
 * Dogpile! Dogpile! (UP) - Similar to Special-Ground-Up.
 * Eating on the Fly (DOWN) - Similar to Special-Ground-Down, though Taz can spit enemies down but can't chew on them.

Passive Abilities

 * Bottomless Pit - Some of Taz's attacks deal a stacking TASTY DEBUFF. TASTY enemies receive stacks of TASTY whenever they are knocked back. When TASTY reaches max stacks, the enemy is given a COOKED CHICKEN DEBUFF and can't attack. When a COOKED enemy takes damage, bits of chicken break off that will heal Taz or his allies if picked up. Taz will also lick allies he passes and heal them slightly. Licking an ally has a COOLDOWN.

Variants

 * Summertime - A largely original variant that takes inspiration from the "summer"-themed outfits Taz has worn throughout the years.

Signature Perks

 * Right Back at You - Taz's tornado and the buff it gives his allies will reflect incoming projectiles, but the tornado moves slower.
 * Iron Stomach - After Taz eats a projectile, he will burp an anvil item instead of the projectile he ate.
