ASBR Dio Brando title call.png

Dio Brando (ディオ・ブランドー, Dio Burandō) was confirmed for All-Star Battle R during the game's initial announcement trailer.[1]

Although his moveset remains fundamentally the same as his from All-Star Battle, 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 the voice of Dio since the Phantom Blood anime, Takehito Koyasu reprises his role for All-Star Battle R. As with the majority of the game's roster, voice lines for Dio were either added or re-recorded.

Gameplay

Dio Brando has 800 health and uses the Vampirism (吸血, Kyūketsu) Battle Style, which converts part of the damage he receives from non-Ripple attacks into recoverable gray health. As a vampire, Dio also has access to several moves that drain either health or Heart Heat Gauge from his opponent while restoring his own.

ASBDPad2.pngASBDPad1.pngASBDPad4.png + ASBL.png/ASBM.png

Attack type: ASBL.png Middle / ASBM.png Low
Damage: 28

Frozen in your tracks! (瞬時に「凍らせた」のだ!) [◇]
ASBDPad2.pngASBDPad1.pngASBDPad4.png + ASBH.png

ASBDPad2.pngASBDPad3.pngASBDPad6.png + ASBL.png/ASBM.png/ASBH.png
ON GROUND
Dio slides forward and performs a roundhouse kick. Range of movement and damage increases in ASBL.pngASBM.pngASBH.png order, but the greater the increase, the more vulnerable Dio becomes. Additional command inputs can be inputted to link with follow-up skills. (Flash Cancel comboable)

Attack type: High
Damage: ASBL.png 24 / ASBM.png 27 / ASBH.png 30

That must be five or six ribs broken! (肋の5~6本も折れたかーーッ!)
ASBL.png during "KUA!"
ON GROUND
Dio relentlessly knees the opponent twice in the torso. This skill can be Flash Canceled after either hit. However, if the second attack is Flash Canceled, it can be difficult to combo off of as the opponent gets pushed a far distance away from Dio after the second knee connects, making it better to Flash Cancel the first hit to continue the combo. (Flash Cancel comboable)

Attack type: High
Damage: 13 + 15 (28)

Did you think you could defeat me, the great DIO?! (このディオが倒せるかァーーーーーー!?)
ASBM.png during "KUA!"
ON GROUND
Dio freezes the opponent and then follows up with an uppercut, launching them high into the air. The recovery can be Flash Canceled, allowing Dio to continue the combo in the air if desired, but with how high Dio launches the opponent, Flash Canceling is unnecessary to connect an attack on the ground. (Comboable)

Attack type: High
Damage: 10 + 20 (30)

WRYYY! (URYYY(ウリイイイ)!!)
ASBH.png during "KUA!"
ON GROUND
Dio chops in a downward motion, causing a groundbounce. While it is possible to perform a Crouching Light Attack after the groundbounce, the skill must be Flash Canceled to properly continue a combo. (Flash Cancel comboable)

Attack type: Middle
Damage: 60

How feeble! (貧弱貧弱ゥ~~ッ!!)
ASBDPad2.pngASBDPad1.pngASBDPad4.png + ASBS.png
ON GROUND
Dio grabs the opponent and sucks the blood from them with his fingers, restoring health, before throwing them away. The number of hits and amount of health restored can be increased by pressing an attack button repeatedly. This throw is unblockable.

Attack type: Throw
Damage: 47 ~ 107 (depending on number of hits)

USELESS, USELESS, USELESS! (無駄無駄無駄アーーーーッ!!)
ASBDPad2.pngASBDPad3.pngASBDPad6.png + ASBS.png
ON GROUND WHEN DOWNED
Dio stabs downward at the opponent with his fingers, sucking out their blood, before tossing them away. This move drains the opponent's Heart Heat Gauge while replenishing Dio's. The hit count and amount of HH Gauge restored can be increased by pressing an attack button repeatedly, with the maximum amount of HH Gauge restored being around 0.4 of a bar. This move can be used to inflict additional damage on a downed opponent.

Attack type: Low
Damage: 26 ~ 56 (depending on number of hits)

I'll suck you dry! (絞り取ってやる!)
ASBS.png or ASBDPad3.png + ASBS.png
ON GROUND
Dio stabs either forward or upward at the opponent with his fingers and sucks out their blood if connected, dealing damage, restoring Dio's health, and sending the opponent flying. The direction of the attack will change based on whether the skill is executed with ASBS.png or ASBDPad3.png + ASBS.png. (Flash Cancel comboable)

Attack type: High
Damage: 42

Throw (投げ技)
You impudent fool! (無礼者がッ!)
2 ATK buttons at close range or ASBT.png (ASBDPad4.png to back-throw)
ON GROUND
Dio lifts the opponent up by one hand, holds them over his head, and throws them to the ground in a direction corresponding to the directional input used to initiate the throw.

Attack type: Throw
Damage: 110

Heart Heat Attack / Great Heat Attack (HHA / GHA)
Space Ripper Stingy Eyes! (空  裂  眼  刺  驚(スペースリパー・スティンギーアイズ))
Dio shoots high-pressure fluid from his eyes in a single-hitting laser attack. Upon impact, the opponent will be knocked down to their knees. This beam-like attack travels the full length of the stage, allowing it to catch opponents from extremely far away.
As a successful Counter Hit doubles the damage of only a single initial hit, the damage increase to this HHA is massive compared to most other attacks in the game. Coupled with the attack's speed and range, it becomes an excellent tool for retaliation and punishment.
If this HHA is used to K.O. Jonathan, a special animation will play where Jonathan futilely tries to block the beams and whispers "Erina..." as he falls.

Attack type: High
Damage: 170

You won't feel a thing! (苦痛は与えん!)
I'll give them all a good show! (もっとも残酷な死を贈ろう!)
ASBDPad2.pngASBDPad3.pngASBDPad6.png + 3 ATK Buttons or ASBG.png
ON GROUND
Dio charges at the opponent with his ice cold hands. When the opponent is hit, Dio freezes them and unleashes a barrage of punches and knee strikes while the opponent is frozen, finishing with an uppercut that sends the opponent into the air. He then finishes the attack by crossing his arms as the opponent falls on him, shattering their still frozen body. This attack references Dio countering Dire's Thunder Cross Split Attack.

Attack type: High
Damage: 270 / 396 / 405 (depending on HH gauge)

WRYYY! You thought you stood a chance? Idiot! You weakling! Behold the oblivion of death! Ha ha ha ha ha ha! (URYYY(ウリイイイ)!! ちょいとでもおれにかなうとでも思ったか! マヌケがァ~~! 貧弱貧弱ゥ… 死の忘却を迎え入れろォ! フハハハハハハハハハッ!)
Assist System (アシストシステム)
Assault Assist (アサルトアシスト)
ON GROUND
A one-stock assist. Dio jumps in and activates his counter move "Frozen in your tracks!". When an opponent hits him, the opponent will become frozen.

Attack type: Counter
Damage: 60

Reversal Assist (リバーサルアシスト)
ON GROUND
A two-stock assist. Dio jumps into the enemy, striking them down with his fist before taunting and jumping away.

Attack type: High

Moveset Changes from All-Star Battle

Normals (通常技)
Standing Medium Attack
ASBM.png
ON GROUND
Dio moves farther than he did in All-Star Battle when attacking. Because the recovery of this skill is faster now, Dio's animation after attacking, where he puts his leg down and returns to his idle pose, is significantly faster.
Standing Heavy Attack
ASBH.png
ON GROUND
Dio moves farther than he did in All-Star Battle because he does not moves as far back when returning to his idle pose.
Crouching Medium Attack
ASBDPad2.png + ASBM.png
ON GROUND
This attack now launches on hit rather than only causing basic hitstun. It also only hits once instead of twice, losing its first Low hit, making this attack only a High now. Additionally, Dio does not move as far forward as he did in All-Star Battle.
Crouching Heavy Attack
ASBDPad2.png + ASBH.png
ON GROUND
Dio moves a significantly farther distance than he did in All-Star Battle when attacking.
Jumping Heavy Attack
ASBH.png
IN AIR OK
Instead of causing a launch into hard knockdown, this attack now causes a groundbounce on hit.
Style/Specials/Etc. (スタイル/特殊技/その他)
Punch right through you!
ASBDPad3.png + ASBH.png
ON GROUND
The input for this command normal has changed. Previously it was ASBDPad6.png in place of ASBDPad3.png. The first hit of the attack is also a High rather than a Middle now. Additionally, it no longer causes a hard knockdown, instead causing only basic hitstun, which allows Dio to use it in combos.
You are a mere dog!
ASBDPad1.png/ASBDPad2.png/ASBDPad3.png then ASBDPad7.png/ASBDPad8.png/ASBDPad9.png
ON GROUND
The translation for this special has changed. Previously it was "You worthless primate!" in place of "You are a mere dog!". The ASBDPad1.png and ASBDPad3.png input can also be used as the first input of this move now.
Skills (コマンド技)
Vaporizing Freeze [◇]
ASBDPad2.pngASBDPad1.pngASBDPad4.png + ASBL.png/ASBM.png
ON GROUND
Dio slides backward and then dashes forward before attacking now. This results in Dio moving forward from his original position if the skill isn't used point black, so while the backwards dash telegraphs the move, this change ultimately means the skill has more range now. The ASBL.png variant also now launches the opponent instead of only binding them. Furthermore, when the skill can be canceled by "You are a mere dog!" has changed. The skill now has to be canceled before Dio hits the opponent with the actual attack instead of it canceling immediately after. When combined with the backward dash, the combination of the two skills can be used to confuse and cross-up the opponent. Additionally, this skill can no longer use "USELESS, USELESS, USELESS!" or "How feeble!" as a follow-up.
Frozen in your tracks! [◇]
ASBDPad2.pngASBDPad1.pngASBDPad4.png + ASBH.png
ON GROUND
Dio slides backward and then dashes forward before striking his counter pose now. This results in Dio moving forward from his original position if the skill isn't used point black, so while the backwards dash telegraphs the move, this change ultimately means the skill has more range now. This skill has lost its ability to use "USELESS, USELESS, USELESS!" or "How feeble!" as a follow-up, instead gaining the ability to be canceled into "You are a mere dog!".
KUA!
ASBDPad2.pngASBDPad3.pngASBDPad6.png + ASBL.png/ASBM.png/ASBH.png
ON GROUND
Dio moves forward farther for the ASBM.png and ASBH.png variants than he did in All-Star Battle.
That must be five or six ribs broken!
ASBL.png during "KUA!"
ON GROUND
The input for this follow-up skill has changed. Previously it was ASBDPad2.pngASBDPad3.pngASBDPad6.png + ASBL.png/ASBM.png/ASBH.png in place of ASBL.png. Additionally, this skill is now one of three possible follow-ups to "KUA!" instead of being the only one with its own two follow-up skills. The translation of the name of this skill has also changed slightly. Previously it was "5 or 6 broken ribs!" in place of "That must be five or six ribs broken!".
Did you think you could defeat me, the great DIO?!
ASBM.png during "KUA!"
ON GROUND
The input for this follow-up skill has changed. Previously it was ASBDPad2.pngASBDPad3.pngASBDPad6.png + ASBL.png/ASBM.png/ASBH.png in place of ASBM.png. Additionally, this skill is now one of three possible follow-ups to "KUA!" instead of being a follow-up to "That must be five or six ribs broken!". The translation of the name of this skill has also changed. Previously it was "Think you can beat the great Dio?!" in place of "Did you think you could defeat me, the great DIO?!". Furthermore, this skill can no longer be canceled into "You are a mere dog!", "USELESS, USELESS, USELESS!", or "How feeble!".
WRYYY!
ASBH.png during "KUA!"
ON GROUND
The input for this follow-up skill has changed. Previously it was ASBDPad2.pngASBDPad1.pngASBDPad4.png + ASBL.png/ASBM.png/ASBH.png in place of ASBH.png. Additionally, this skill is now one of three possible follow-ups to "KUA!" instead of being a follow-up to "That must be five or six ribs broken!". This change makes it so the skill naturally combos now. The translation of the name of this skill has also changed slightly. Previously it was "URYYY!!" in place of "WRYYY!". Furthermore, this skill can no longer be canceled into "You are a mere dog!", "USELESS, USELESS, USELESS!", or "How feeble!".
How feeble!
ASBDPad2.pngASBDPad1.pngASBDPad4.png + ASBS.png
ON GROUND
This skill is no longer a follow-up skill, instead being its own skill. This results in the input being different now. Previously it was ASBS.png in place of ASBDPad2.pngASBDPad1.pngASBDPad4.png + ASBS.png. This skill has also been changed from a High to a Throw in order to keep its unblockable property (it could not be used unless the previous attack hit before, making it unblockable despite being classified as a High). Furthermore, the attack can now be extended if an attack button is mashed during the animation, making it possible for this skill to deal more damage and steal more health. The translation for the name of this skill has also changed. Previously it was "You weakling!" in place of "How feeble!".
USELESS, USELESS, USELESS!
ASBDPad2.pngASBDPad3.pngASBDPad6.png + ASBS.png
ON GROUND WHEN DOWNED
This skill is no longer a follow-up skill, instead being its own skill. This skill has also been changed from a High to a Low and can now hit downed opponents. Additionally, the attack can now be extended if an attack button is mashed during the animation, making it possible for this skill to deal more damage and steal more Heart Heat. The translation for the name of this skill has also changed. Previously it was "MUDA, MUDA, MUDA!" in place of "USELESS, USELESS, USELESS!".
I'll suck you dry!
ASBS.png or ASBDPad3.png + ASBS.png
ON GROUND
This skill's input has changed. Previously it was ASBDPad4.pngASBDPad1.pngASBDPad2.pngASBDPad3.pngASBDPad6.png + ASBS.png in place of ASBS.png or ASBDPad3.png + ASBS.png. Because this skill has two possible inputs, the angle that Dio stabs his fingers out can now change. When the skill hits, it now no longer plays a cinematic. It can also be Flash Canceled now, and when combined with the opponent no longer having invulnerability after this skill hits, it allows for Dio to combo off a successful hit.

General Changes

  • Dio's run speed is faster than it was in All-Star Battle.

Special Interactions

  • As with all Vampires and Pillar Men, Dio will burn in the sunlight during the Situation Finish for the DIO's Mansion stage.
  • When hit by Giorno Giovanna's Heart Heat Attack, Dio's expression references his when Jonathan unsuccessfully punches him during their climactic battle.[7]
  • When hit by Enrico Pucci's "It's an illusion." skill, Dio clutches both sides of his head and closes his right eye and the right half of his mouth, as he does when healing his head after the aforementioned attack.[7]
