Foo Fighters (フー・ファイターズ, Fū Faitāzu), also referred to as F.F. (F・F, Efu Efu), makes her playable debut in All-Star Battle R. She was confirmed as a playable character alongside Yukako Yamagishi and Jotaro Kujo (Part 4) during the game's Part 4, 6, & 8 Reveal Trailer.[1] F.F. was one of the four characters playable in the game's second Early Access Demo alongside Jotaro Kujo, Jolyne Cujoh, and Ermes Costello. She was also 1 of 15 playable characters during the Evo 2022 Demo on August 5.[3]
Having neither previously appeared in All-Star Battle nor Eyes of Heaven as a playable character, she has an original moveset based on her appearance in Stone Ocean.
In the English version of All-Star Battle R, Foo Fighters's full name is localized as "F.F.", her nickname and the same name used in the original All-Star Battle.
As F.F.'s voice actor in the Stone Ocean anime, Mariya Ise reprises her role in this game as well.
Gameplay
Foo Fighters can be classifed as a mid-ranged zoner; but, much like the character herself, her playstlye is unique.
F.F.'s main attacks come in the form of projectiles. "F.F. Shot" is a traditional fireball, "I've got this!" is a low-hitting variant and "I'll blow your head off your shoulders!" is an aerial fireball. The commands that classify her as a mid-ranged zoner come in the form of her "Emergency Evade" and "I've made it." The first command lets F.F. easily close or make gaps with ease, whilst also having the ability to damage at close range. The second command is a forward leap and projectile, a peculiar skill that lets her get closer and damage. Top that off with a close-ranged anti-air, turns F.F. into a character than can zone, whilst also being able to go toe to toe with powerful fighters or rushdowners.
But the thing that makes Foo Fighters truly unique, is "Move like F.F.": An exclusive passive that allows F.F to chain together certain command skills into each other, something others cannot. With this power, F.F. can perform a low projectile right after her high, perform her leaping shots right after firing a low projectile, and have access to another strong projectile and mobility command. This awesome power comes at the cost of using one of her plankton resources after each successful chain, with only five plankton, people playing F.F must manage her resource and decide when it's best to chain commands and when to save them. Whilst she is able to regain her plankton, it also puts her in a vulnerable state, being incredibly risky when the other player is up close, or if facing against a character with a quick long-ranged projectile.
With just-below average health as well. Foo Fighters is slightly squisher than other characters, but she makes up for this with her HHA, which heals and not only replenishes her plankton, but greatly empowers the next "F.F. Shot" she performs. But with this HHA being a utility super, F.F. lacks a powerful move in her arsenal.
Even with a strong GHA, it too has its downsides. Namely the long wind-up it has before being usable. This con makes it incredibly easy to sidestep and to punish. With the best ways to properly use it, is after a guard break, or a rush assist.
Despite her notable downsides (including sidetepping being a nusiance to most zoners), Foo Fighters is still a powerful combatant. Her unique take on zoning and capability of chaning commands together do help carry the slack, and in the right hands, she is a threat.
