ASBR DIO title call.png

DIO (ＤＩＯ(ディオ)) was confirmed for All-Star Battle R during the game's announcement trailer.[1] He is one of the four characters playable in the game's Early Access Demo alongside Jonathan Joestar, Jotaro Kujo, and Jolyne Cujoh. He is also part of the game's current demo alongside Joseph Joestar, Jotaro, Jolyne and Yoshikage Kira.

His moveset is fundamentally the same as his from All-Star Battle, although a few tweaks have been made to both balance the character and fit him into the overall gameplay changes that All-Star Battle R brought.

As DIO's voice actor in both All-Star Battle and the Stardust Crusaders anime, Takehito Koyasu reprises his role in this game. As with the majority of the game's roster, voice lines for DIO were either added or re-recorded.

Gameplay

DIO has 840 health and uses the Stand (スタンド, Sutando) Battle Style, which allows him to freely summon and withdraw his Stand The World, dynamically changing his moveset in the process. In addition, as a vampire, DIO has access to several moves that drain either health or Heart Heat Gauge from his opponent while restoring his own.

Style/Specials/Etc. [Stand Off] (スタイル/特殊技/その他)
Stand ON/OFF (スタンドＯＮ／ＯＦＦ)
ASBS.png ON GROUND
DIO can summon or dismiss The World, altering his available abilities.
Stop, time! (時よ止まれ！)
ASBDPad2.pngx2 + ASBS.png ON GROUND (requires 1.5 stocks of HH)
If DIO has a minimum of one and a half stocks of the Heart Heat Gauge, he can use his Stand's signature ability to stop time. If the full activation animation plays uninterrupted, DIO will stop time for anywhere from 3.4 to 6.9 seconds depending on how much of the HHG he has.

All animations, including the HHG flame and the countdown on the battle timer, will temporarily cease, and the opponent is frozen in place and completely unable to act. Damage dealt to the opponent that is not a Throw, "I'll give you one chance.", "Oh, this suits me well!", HHA, or GHA is reduced, but the opponent is otherwise absolutely vulnerable. When the ability ends and time resumes, the opponent will suffer all damage dealt to them at once.

Any knives thrown using "And one more just in case!" or DIO's HHA hang in the air, notably doing more damage if they hit the opponent after time resumes than if they were to have connected immediately. He may use his HHA or GHA with impunity if he has enough of the HHG left to do so. DIO is even capable of hitting opponents that were down when the ability was activated, 'resetting' them into a standing position once hit. The ability is best used with normal attacks in mind in order to deal the most damage within the stopped time, as they execute quickly and their damage reduction within stopped time is insubstantial.

If DIO's Throw, the attack variation of "I'll give you one chance.", "Oh, this suits me well!", or GHA is used, time will immediately resume with the HHG drained to zero.

If fighting against Jotaro Kujo, Jotaro Kujo (Part 4), himself, or Parallel World Diego, DIO can use this ability to move within the other fighter's stopped time, and may even outlast his opponent if their HHG runs out first.

An absolute end (完全なるとどめ)
ASBDPad2.pngx2 + ASBH.png ON GROUND WHEN DOWNED
DIO pulls out a sign and brings it down on the opponent, knocking them into the air if they are hit while standing. If not canceled (either through use of a skill or a Flash Cancel), DIO will hop a short distance backward after performing this attack. (Comboable)

Attack type: High
Damage: 45

So close! (惜しかったなあ)
(When hit) ASBDPad4.pngASBDPad6.png + ASBH.png (requires 2 stocks of HH) ON GROUND
A combo-breaking skill that can only be used once DIO is hit by any non-Throw/HHA/GHA, or any attack that does not down or send him flying upon the first hit. DIO instantly stops time to escape, suddenly reappearing to the side of where he previously was in relation to the opponent (similar in effect to a Stylish Evade). Its activation consumes two stocks of the Heart Heat Gauge and 35% of the Guard Gauge in return for completely breaking out of an opponent's attack or combo, and functions in the exact same manner as Diavolo's "Such futility!" counter.
Now THIS is the greatest high! (最高に「ハイ！」ってやつだアアアアア)
Hit opponent with the "Oh, this suits me well!" skill
An automatic additional effect which is only activated against members of the original Joestar bloodline (Jonathan Joestar, Joseph Joestar, Jotaro Kujo, Old Joseph Joestar, Josuke Higashikata, Jotaro Kujo (Part 4), Giorno Giovanna, and Jolyne Cujoh). One activated, Vampiric skill hits will increase the amount at which the HH Gauge is charged. Can only be performed once per round.
Rumble Mode (ゴゴゴモード)
Activates below 30% health
DIO's attack power and HH Gauge charge rate increases, and the rate at which the Guard Gauge drops decreases.
Skills [Stand Off] (コマンド技)
Right in front of me?! (いつの間に目の前に！？)
ASBDPad2.pngASBDPad3.pngASBDPad6.png + ASBL.png/ASBM.png/ASBH.png ON GROUND
Using its ability, The World suddenly appears at certain distances and delivers a melee strike. The resulting attack is dependent on the attack button inputted.
  • Light (ASBL.png) - The World delivers an uppercut in front of DIO, knocking the opponent off their feet. This doubles as an anti-air attack. (Flash Cancel comboable)
  • Medium (ASBM.png) - The World appears a distance forward and delivers a downwards punch, knocking the opponent straight to the ground to down them.
  • Heavy (ASBH.png) - The World appears a distance forward, close to the ground, and delivers a low punch, knocking the opponent off their feet. (Flash Cancel comboable)

If "Stop, time!" is active, The World does not flash forward and instead flies into position before attacking.

Attack type: ASBL.png High / ASBM.png Middle / ASBH.png Low
Damage: ASBL.png 40 / ASBM.png 25 + 65 (90) / ASBH.png 65

I'll give you one chance. (ひとつチャンスをやろう)
ASBDPad2.pngx2 + ASBL.png/ASBM.png/ASBH.png ON GROUND
DIO swaggers toward the opponent before stopping to pose. If hit by a non-Throw/HHA/GHA attack during this walk, the "He's... gone!" special will automatically trigger. The distance and duration of DIO's walk depends on the input, with ASBL.png being the longest.

Attack type: Counter

He's... gone! (き…消えたッ！)
Automatically after "I'll give you one chance." is triggered
When triggered by "I'll give you one chance.", DIO teleports to the other side of the opponent before delivering a strike, launching them upwards. DIO can also input a Stylish Guard as he teleports to cancel his attack and Stylish Guard instead. This skill can be canceled into a specials, other skills, and HHA.

Attack type: High
Damage: 38

Oh, this suits me well! (なじむぞ)
ASBDPad6.pngASBDPad3.pngASBDPad2.pngASBDPad1.pngASBDPad4.png + ASBL.png/ASBM.png/ASBH.png (rapidly tap to drain more health) ON GROUND
Unblockable command throw. DIO swings at the opponent open-handed, with the distance depending on the input. If he connects, he'll knock them to the ground, plunge his fingers into them, and drain their blood, stealing a moderate amount of health for himself.

Attack type: Throw
Damage: 47 ~ 95 (depending on number of hits)

And one more just in case! (だめ押しにもう一本)
ASBDPad4.pngASBDPad6.png + ASBL.png/ASBM.png/ASBH.png ON GROUND
Special-cancelable. DIO summons The World to quickly throw a knife straight forward. The attack button inputted determines the speed of the knife.

Attack type: High

Style/Specials/Etc. [Stand On] (スタイル/特殊技/その他)
Stand ON/OFF (スタンドＯＮ／ＯＦＦ)
ASBS.png ON GROUND
DIO can summon or dismiss The World, altering his available abilities.
Stop, time! (時よ止まれ！)
ASBDPad2.pngx2 + ASBS.png ON GROUND (requires 1.5 stocks of HH)
If DIO has a minimum of one and a half stocks of the Heart Heat Gauge, he can use his Stand's signature ability to stop time. If the full activation animation plays uninterrupted, DIO will stop time for anywhere from 3.4 to 6.9 seconds depending on how much of the HHG he has.

All animations, including the HHG flame and the countdown on the battle timer, will temporarily cease, and the opponent is frozen in place and completely unable to act. Damage dealt to the opponent that is not a Throw, "I'll give you one chance.", "Oh, this suits me well!", HHA, or GHA is reduced, but the opponent is otherwise absolutely vulnerable.

If fighting against Jotaro Kujo, Jotaro Kujo (Part 4), himself, or Parallel World Diego, DIO can use this ability to move within the other fighter's stopped time, and may even outlast his opponent if their HHG runs out first.

Rumble Mode (ゴゴゴモード)
Activates below 30% health
DIO's attack power and HH Gauge charge rate increases, and the rate at which the Guard Gauge drops decreases.
Skills [Stand On] (コマンド技)
Useless, useless, useless, useless! (無駄無駄無駄無駄ァーッ)
ASBDPad2.pngASBDPad3.pngASBDPad6.png + ASBL.png/ASBM.png/ASBH.png ON GROUND
The World rushes forward with a barrage of punches, advancing on the opponent and knocking them back. The attack button inputted determines the distance the Stand travels. This ability can initiate Rush Mode. (Flash Cancel comboable)

Attack type: High
Damage: ASBL.png 84 / ASBM.png 92 / ASBH.png 100

My Stand's full power! (スタンドのパワーを全開だッ！)
ASBDPad2.pngASBDPad3.pngASBDPad6.png + ASBL.png/ASBM.png/ASBH.png IN AIR OK
While in midair, The World rapidly punches downward, finishing with an upward kick that sends the opponent high into the air. The first punch is a middle attack that must be blocked standing. A Stand Rush skill that DIO can disconnect from to freely act while it is executing.

Attack type: Middle (first hit) High (rest of hits)
Damage: ASBL.png 56 / ASBM.png 88 / ASBH.png 120

This is... The World! (これが…「世界(ザ・ワールド)」だ)
ASBDPad2.pngASBDPad1.pngASBDPad4.png + ASBL.png/ASBM.png/ASBH.png ON GROUND
After a brief delay, The World delivers an unblockable, potent punch that deals high knockback.
  • Light (ASBL.png) - DIO and his Stand reappear a very short distance forward by stopping time before delivering the attack.
  • Medium (ASBM.png) - DIO and his Stand reappear a short distance forward by stopping time before delivering the attack.
  • Heavy (ASBH.png) - DIO and his Stand reappear a larger distance forward by stopping time before delivering the attack.

If "Stop, time!" is active, neither DIO nor The World move forward and instead deliver the attack from a stationary position.

Attack type: Unblockable
Damage: 120

Throw (投げ技)
What just happened? (何をされたのかわからなかった)
2 ATK buttons at close range or ASBT.png (ASBDPad4.png to back-throw) ON GROUND
The World picks the opponent up by the neck and briefly stops time. When time resumes, the opponent has been punched through the abdomen and is sent flying.

Attack type: Throw
Damage: 130

Heart Heat Attack / Great Heat Attack (ＨＨＡ / ＧＨＡ)
Scared, are you? (青ざめたな…)
ASBDPad2.pngASBDPad3.pngASBDPad6.png + 2 ATK Buttons ON GROUND
DIO tauntingly points out how pale his opponent has gotten and performs a roundhouse kick sliding forward. If the kick connects, the opponent is sent flying into the air as DIO stops time and throws 48 knives that surround them at most angles, before resuming time and letting them get skewered.
If "Stop, time!" is active, the HHA will change to simply DIO and The World both launching a multitude of knives in a fanning wave, but deal less damage. If quick enough, the HHA can be performed twice during stopped time if DIO's Heart Heat Gauge has three stocks, ultimately dealing more damage than the HHA's original version, but only if the knives strike after time resumes instead of immediately due to the damage reduction effect of stopped time.
This HHA bears similarity to Shadow DIO's "Checkmate" super from the Capcom game.

Attack type: High
Damage: 160 (normal) / 120 (thrown in stopped time but connected after time resumes) / 96 (connected during stopped time)

“
Scared are you? Checkmate! (青ざめたな… 『詰み(チェック・メイト)』だッ！)
”
It's a steamroller! (ロードローラーだッ！)
ASBDPad2.pngASBDPad3.pngASBDPad6.png + 3 ATK Buttons, or ASBG.png ON GROUND
DIO confidently sends The World out to attack with a heavy punch. If the Stand successfully strikes the victim, DIO will stop time, jump high into the air and off-screen, and bring the infamous road roller down on his victim. He then elbows the vehicle repeatedly, heavily denting it in the process, before jumping off and resuming time, thus allowing the damaged vehicle to explode while it is still crushing his opponent. If the same move is done against Jotaro, he summons Star Platinum to try to punch the roller away.
If Jotaro specifically inputs his "I stopped time..." ability over the course of the GHA, a special animation will play where DIO is blindsided by Jotaro stopping time and reappearing behind him, before the two clash and break away from each other. While this doesn't negate the full damage of the whole attack, it does negate the damage of the road roller's explosion, making the GHA deal less than half of its total damage. DIO and Jotaro are also left at opposite ends of the arena, rather than DIO holding the advantageous position of his opponent being left downed and close to him after the attack.

Attack type: High
Damage: 348 / 417 / 522 (depending on HH gauge)
Against Jotaro when "I stopped time" used: 282 / 338 / 423 (depending on HH gauge)

“
The World! Stop time! Time to end this! It's a steamroller! Useless useless useless useless useless useless useless useless useless! I'll flatten you! (「世界(ザ・ワールド)！」 時よ止まれッ！ カタをつける(・・・・・・)ッ！ ロードローラーだッ！ 無駄無駄無駄無駄無駄無駄無駄無駄無駄無駄無駄無駄無駄ァーーーーッ ぶっつぶれよぉォォッ)
”
Assist System (アシストシステム)
Assault Assist (アサルトアシスト)
ON GROUND
A two-stock assist. DIO appears and summons The World to deliver a potent unblockable body blow, stopping time and reappearing a distance forward.

Attack type: Unblockable
Damage: 120

Reversal Assist (リバーサルアシスト)
ON GROUND
A one-stock assist. DIO flies in, striking the opponent back with The World's fist before taunting and disappearing again with a snap of his fingers.

Attack type: High

"Right in front of me?!"
ASBDPad2.pngASBDPad3.pngASBDPad6.png + ASBL.png/ASBM.png/ASBH.png ON GROUND
  • The input for this skill has been changed. Previously it was ASBDPad2.pngASBDPad1.pngASBDPad4.png in place of ASBDPad2.pngASBDPad3.pngASBDPad6.png, the previous input for "He's... gone!".

I'll give you one chance.
ASBDPad2.pngx2 + ASBL.png/ASBM.png/ASBH.png ON GROUND
  • The input for this skill has been changed. Previously it was ASBDPad6.pngASBDPad2.pngASBDPad3.png in place of ASBDPad2.pngASBDPad2.png.
  • The move is now simply a moving counter, automatically triggering "He's... gone!" upon being struck by a non-Throw/HHA/GHA attack. This change also keeps the Medium (ASBM.png) variant of this skill from becoming redundant with the new universal Stylish Guard mechanic.
  • The duration and travel distance of the attack is now affected by the attack button inputted in descending order, with the Heavy (ASBH.png) variant allowing DIO to act near-instantly.
  • DIO can now fully act again the moment he stops to pose, greatly reducing this skill's recovery period.
"He's... gone!"
Automatically after "I'll give you one chance." is triggered
  • This skill is no longer a manual input, and now only activates automatically when "I'll give you one chance." is triggered.

  • The attack is now an unblockable command throw instead of a hitgrab.
  • The distance DIO shifts forward is now determined by the attack button inputted.
And one more just in case!
ASBDPad4.pngASBDPad6.png + ASBL.png/ASBM.png/ASBH.png ON GROUND
  • This skill is now special-cancelable, allowing DIO to chain into other skills. This also includes into itself, granting the ability to continuously throw knives at a rapid rate.
  • The delay before The World tosses the knife is longer now.
Normals [Stand On] (通常技)
Standing Light Attack
ASBL.png ON GROUND
  • The World now moves backward before attacking, shortening the normal's range.
Standing Medium Attack
ASBM.png ON GROUND
  • Dio and The World now move forward before attacking, increasing this normal's range.
Standing Heavy Attack
ASBH.png ON GROUND
  • DIO and The World travel significantly lesser distance forward while attacking now, decreasing the range of this normal.
Crouching Medium Attack
ASBDPad2.png + ASBM.png ON GROUND
  • The World now moves forward before attacking, giving this normal more range.
Jumping Medium Attack
ASBM.png IN AIR OK
  • This attack now launches on hit rather than causing normal knockback.
Style/Specials/Etc. [Stand On] (スタイル/特殊技/その他)
Stop, time!
ASBDPad2.pngx2 ASBS.png ON GROUND
  • This special now executes drastically slower, giving DIO's opponent more time to interrupt him and making it more difficult to successfully stop time.
Skills [Stand On] (コマンド技)
Useless, useless, useless, useless!
ASBDPad2.pngASBDPad3.pngASBDPad6.png + ASBL.png/ASBM.png/ASBH.png ON GROUND
  • The attack now launches opponents farther away from DIO. However, because of the longer amount of time the opponent spends in the air, it is now much easier to Flash Cancel and dash forward to combo off of the launch than it was in All-Star Battle.
My Stand's full power!
ASBDPad2.pngASBDPad3.pngASBDPad6.png + ASBL.png/ASBM.png/ASBH.png IN AIR OK
  • The attack now launches the opponent slightly higher.
  • DIO's landing recovery is much shorter.
    • Both of these allow DIO to now combo off of this skill.
This is... The World!
ASBDPad2.pngASBDPad1.pngASBDPad4.png + ASBL.png/ASBM.png/ASBH.png ON GROUND
  • All versions of this skill are unblockable, which now includes the Light (ASBL.png) variant.
  • DIO now teleports a small distance forward when using the Light variant.
  • The Medium (ASBM.png) and Heavy (ASBH.png) variants' startup is longer now.
  • The attack no longer sends the opponent flying into the stage wall, now only dealing high knockback. This also means that the opponent now only suffers a soft knockdown, allowing them to Down Evade, rather than a hard knockdown.

Special Interactions

  • When hit by DIO's Great Heat Attack, "It's a steamroller!", Jotaro Kujo initially holds the vehicle back with punches from Star Platinum.
    • If the GHA is non-lethal and Jotaro activates his time stop during the cinematic, the interaction is extended: After Jotaro is "crushed," DIO celebrates his victory momentarily before himself being trapped in time stop, unable to move. The camera pans to reveal Jotaro standing behind DIO, claiming he stopped time and escaped. Unlike in the original story, DIO is able to free himself, causing The World and Star Platinum to clash fists before both Stand users are blown away.
  • When hit by Giorno Giovanna's Heart Heat Attack, DIO clenches his teeth as Gold Experience's fist strikes the side of his skull, referencing Jotaro's successful attack against him after playing dead.[3]
  • When hit by Enrico Pucci's "It's an illusion." skill, DIO grins as he scratches at his own head, as he does after sucking Joseph's blood.[4]

Dialogue

Outside of All-Star Battle Mode, DIO has unique interaction dialogue for both his match entrances and victories when facing certain characters.
