Aethereal Gates

Aethereal Gates is a stage in Rivals of Aether.

Basic variant
In the Basic form, the stage has a large hard platform with walls, along with two soft platforms that match the color scheme as the Gatekeepers. The two platforms move horizontally towards or away from each other every 20 seconds, with the eyes rapidly blinking signifying this.

Aether variant
In the Aether form, the soft platforms are replaced with the Gatekeepers. For the first phase, the eyes have stalks high above the stage and will aim at the player for a few seconds before shooting a beam of energy at the player that does 8% damage. The eyes will then move in closer to the center ground and create three circular energy blasts around the stage. Next, the eyes move to the opposite edge of the stage and shoot up several energy beams that land around the stage that do damage, then shoot a large energy ball that does 10% damage, after which the eyes will aim at the player and shoot 3 shots of energy. The eyes will move across the stage and aim a vertical beam across the entirety of the stage.

This version is virtually identical to the Aethereal Gates story mode chapter, except that the Gatekeepers cannot be attacked and they do not summon abyss clones.
