The Rack in Soulcalibur VI.

The Rack (ヴィ・メルリオ in Soulcalibur and Soulcalibur VI; ヴィ・メリオ in Soulcalibur II and Soulcalibur III) is the throw that Astaroth uses when he's standing behind the opponent. It would be replaced by Death Crush in Soulcalibur IV but would return in the Ver.2.00 update for Soulcalibur VI.^[1]
