Unlike in {{EoH}}, Stroheim's default costume is the same in both the Western and Japanese versions of the game, and any direct mention of [[Nazis]] or explicit Nazi imagery have been altered or removed.

Rudol von Stroheim (ルドル・フォン・シュトロハイム, Rudoru fon Shutorohaimu) was officially announced as the second playable DLC character for All-Star Battle R on January 19, 2023,[1] and was released for all to play on February 3. Like the rest of the first four paid DLC characters, he is included in the game's first season pass, and therefore the Digital Deluxe and Ultimate Editions of the game as well; owners of either gained early access to the character on February 1, 2023.[2]
His moveset is similar to that of his Eyes of Heaven appearance, with modifications and new aspects added to better fit him in with All-Star Battle R's different style of gameplay.
Unlike in Eyes of Heaven, Stroheim's default costume is the same in both the Western and Japanese versions of the game, and any direct mention of Nazis or explicit Nazi imagery have been altered or removed.
Having voiced Stroheim in both the Battle Tendency anime and Eyes of Heaven, Atsushi Imaruoka reprises his role in this game as well. As with the majority of the game's roster, voice lines for Stroheim were either added or re-recorded.
Stroheim has 1000 health and uses the unique Best Science in the World (世界一の科学力, Sekai Ichi no Kagaku-ryoku) Style, which allows him access to a variety of skills utilizing his cyborg body. Notably, Stroheim is able to switch his primary weapon between a 600 rpm heavy machine gun in his chest and an array of ultraviolet lamps mounted on his shoulders.
Stroheim kicks forward with his foot, potentially tripping the opponent and knocking them down.

ON GROUNDWHEN DOWNED
This ability can only be attempted while Stroheim has a minimum of two stocks of Heart Heat, and consumes one stock upon activation. Stroheim pulls the pin on a Stielhandgranate and hugs it while lying prone. After a long delay, the grenade explodes, blasting Stroheim backwards and instantly reducing his health to 1. However, if the opponent is caught they will also be blown away while taking a colossal amount of damage, capable of KO'ing almost any character from half health. The explosion may even connect with them while they are downed.
From the moment he initiates the attack, Stroheim becomes immune to Throws. Once he reaches prone position, he naturally low-profiles most attacks in the game and additionally gains passive Super Armor. As a result, he can no longer be interrupted by attacks aside from command Throws, HHA, and GHA. After a successful detonation, Stroheim's Heart Heat Gauge will be permanently disabled for the rest of the match.
Attack type: Unblockable Damage: 500
UV Laser Gauge (紫外線照射装置ゲージ)
A gauge above Stroheim's Heart Heat Gauge displays how much energy he has left for UV Laser Mode. It fills gradually while in Heavy Machine Gun Mode and is instantly replenished to full upon connecting with his HHA. While in UV Laser Mode, it gradually drains overtime and automatically switches Stroheim back to Heavy Machine Gun Mode when depleted.
Rumble Mode (ゴゴゴモード)
Activates below 30% health
This mode is automatically activated once Stroheim falls below 30% health. It increases his attack power, as well as the rate at which the Heart Heat Gauge rises, while also decreasing the rate at which the Guard Gauge drops.

When using the or versions, Stroheim delivers an initial melee strike and becomes invulnerable until the attack is executed, with providing longer invulnerability. However, the skill may no longer be Flash-Canceled or chained into Stroheim's HHA.
If the melee strike connects with the opponent while using the version, the skill will instead transition into "I'll pluck you one square centimeter at a time!", dealing extra damage while ending the combo.
Stroheim pulls the pin on a Stielhandgranate and tosses it into the air in a slow arc. It then detonates and creates a small explosion upon contact with either the opponent or the ground. The range the grenade is thrown increases in order of , inversely affecting his recovery speed. This attack deals immense Guard damage, making it useful when trying to Guardbreak the opponent. However, Stroheim may also be caught in the grenade's explosion if he is too close, causing him to flinch while taking a moderate amount of damage. (Comboable)

Stroheim slides a forward distance in a low stance and delivers a body blow. His travel distance increases in order of , inversely affecting recovery speed. Due to his crouched posture while moving, this skill can allow him to slip under high-flying projectiles and other similar attacks. (Flash Cancel comboable)

After landing "Leave the rest to me, Rudol von Stroheim!", Stroheim quickly follows up by firing his prosthetic hand to blast the opponent and send them flying. (Flash Cancel comboable)
If triggered from the version of "His hand is metal!", this skill deals more damage but cannot be Flash-Canceled or chained into Stroheim's HHA.

Smirking, Stroheim launches his prosthetic hand off in a rocket punch a moderate distance forward. If it connects, he seizes the opening to load ammunition into himself and deliver a heavier volley of 20 bullets from his Heavy Machine Gun, carrying the opponent into the air.
This HHA has the bonus effect of replenishing the UV Laser Gauge to full.
Attack type: High Damage: 54 + 7*20 + 10 (204)

ON GROUND
Jovial over the chance to kill the opponent himself, Stroheim wields UV Laser Mode and launches high-powered beams in front of himself. If it connects, the opponent is blinded and seared by the intense lasers. Suddenly switching to Heavy Machine Gun Mode, Stroheim unleashes an heavily extended volley of bullets into them. To finish the assault, he pulls the pin on a Stielhandgranate and fires off his prosthetic hand holding it in a rocket punch, striking the opponent's body and propelling them backwards. The grenade then detonates to trigger a massive explosion while Stroheim looks away, before the prosthetic hand returns to him and locks back in.
If used while in UV Laser Mode, this GHA executes faster. Notably, the Mode that Stroheim is left in after the GHA is determined by whether or not the attack connects: if it connects, Stroheim continues in Heavy Machine Gun Mode, whereas if it fails, Stroheim continues in UV Laser Mode.
Attack type: High Damage: 340 / 408 / 510 (depending on HH gauge)
“

While in UV Laser Mode, Stroheim does not have access to any skills. However, all of his normal attacks are replaced with UV Laser beam attacks which carry higher damage and range than most other normals in the game. Said attacks inflict additional silver damage unto the opponent; while silver damage can be regenerated over time, it will disappear if the opponent is damaged again. They will also deal an additional 10% damage to immortal characters such as vampires and the Pillar Men. To note, they can bypass melee-based counter abilities due to the beams being considered projectiles.

Stroheim fires UV lasers in a fan formation from the emitters on his shoulders at a downward angle, dealing rapid damage that is partially silver. The standing version of this attack knocks the opponent off their feet, while the crouching version can strike a downed opponent, briefly launching them in the process as well. (Comboable)
As this functions as a normal attack, any standing or crouching version of "UV laser, activate!" can be chained into this attack, and this attack can even chain into Stroheim's GHA.

It fills gradually while in Heavy Machine Gun Mode and is instantly replenished to full upon connecting with his HHA.
Rumble Mode (ゴゴゴモード)
Activates below 30% health
This mode is automatically activated once Stroheim falls below 30% health. It increases his attack power, as well as the rate at which the Heart Heat Gauge rises, while also decreasing the rate at which the Guard Gauge drops.
Throw (投げ技)
German science is the best in the world! (我がドイツの科学力はァァァァァァァアアア世界一ィィィイイイイ)
2 ATK buttons / near the opponent *Rear throw with
ON GROUND
Stroheim shoves his opponent backwards, focuses energy into his cybernetic eye, and delivers a concentrated UV Laser blast to knock them down. This Throw deals damage that is partially silver.
Attack type: Throw Damage: 180 Startup frames: 7
Great Heat Attack (ＧＨＡ)
I can't tell you how good it feels to finish you myself! (きさまにとどめをさせるなんて！)
+ 3 ATK buttons, or
ON GROUND
Jovial over the chance to kill the opponent himself, Stroheim wields UV Laser Mode and launches high-powered beams in front of himself. If it connects, the opponent is blinded and seared by the intense lasers. Suddenly switching to Heavy Machine Gun Mode, Stroheim unleashes an heavily extended volley of bullets into them. To finish the assault, he pulls the pin on a Stielhandgranate and fires off his prosthetic hand holding it in a rocket punch, striking the opponent's body and propelling them backwards. The grenade then detonates to trigger a massive explosion while Stroheim looks away, before the prosthetic hand returns to him and locks back in.
If used while in UV Laser Mode, this GHA executes faster. Notably, the Mode that Stroheim is left in after the GHA is determined by whether or not the attack connects; if it connects, Stroheim continues in Heavy Machine Gun Mode, whereas if it fails, Stroheim continues in UV Laser Mode.
Attack type: High Damage: 340 / 408 / 510 (depending on HH gauge)

Special Interactions
When hit by Giorno Giovanna's Heart Heat Attack, Stroheim's face contorts in pain, referencing his expression after realizing the secret behind Kars's Light Blades.[4]
When hit by Enrico Pucci's "It's an illusion." skill, Stroheim crouches on the ground and holds his head, as he does after Joseph knocks his hat off.[5]
Outside of All-Star Battle Mode, Rudol von Stroheim has unique interaction dialogue for both his match entrances and victories when facing certain characters. Notably, new dialogue was only recorded for paid DLC characters and Joseph Joestar.

An ally in Part 2: Battle Tendency, he is a German army officer who is the commander of a secret base in Mexico. Though proud and a little goofy, he is eminently likeable. He appears to die fighting Santana, but later returns as a cyborg powerful enough to faze even the mighty Kars.

In commemoration of the release of Stroheim as the 2nd paid DLC character for ASBR, the Japanese ASBR Twitter account hosted a giveaway of 20 sets of 3 ASBR Battle Tendency badges,[6] although only to be delivered to addresses in Japan.[7] The badges in question contained the ASBR render images of Kars, Joseph Joestar, and Stroheim respectively.
The campaign started on February 3, 2023, and lasted until February 19 at 11:59pm JST. To enter the giveaway lottery, users only had to:
However, Twitter accounts set to private were ineligible for the giveaway. Unfollowing the ASBR Twitter account before the end of the giveaway also deemed users ineligible. Furthermore, attempting to join the giveaway with multiple accounts disqualified all of the associated accounts from the giveaway.[7]
The giveaway was directly implemented by Bandai Namco themselves, with no third-party involvement, and the winners of the giveaway were notified via Twitter DMs. Said winners were announced sometime in early March 2023.[7]
