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] Like the rest of the paid DLC, he is included inside the game's season pass, and therefore the Digital Deluxe Edition as well.
Unlike Eyes of Heaven, Stroheim's design is the same in both Western and Japanese versions of the game.
Having voiced Stroheim since the Battle Tendency anime adaptation, Atsushi Imaruoka reprises his role in this game as well. Like with the majority of the roster that have returning voice actors from Eyes of Heaven, voicelines for Stroheim were added and re-recorded.
Stroheim uses the Best Science in the World (世界一の科学力, Sekaīchi no Kagakuryoku) Battle Style, being the only playable character to do so.

Best Science in the World
ON GROUND
Switches between Heavy Machine Gun Mode and UV Laser Mode. Doing so changes the skills and specials Stroheim is able to use.
For the homeland! For eternal glory!
+ ON GROUND
Stroheim swings his fist straight down.
Attack type: Middle
Farewell, you annoying Englishman!
x2 + *Consumes HH Gauge WHEN DOWNED
Stroheim explodes a grenade on himself, sending hit opponenets flying but leaving Stroheim near death. Can only be used with 2 or more bars of the HH Gauge filled, yet only uses 1 bar of the Gauge. Afterwards, the HH Gauge will be unusable for the rest of the battle.
Detonating the explosion from a downed position will render the opponent's attacks unable to knock Stroheim back. From the moment of activation until the grenade's explosion, Stroheim will also be invincible to Throws, except for attack Throws.
Attack type: Unblockable
UV Laser Gauge
A gauge that shows Strohiem's energy level in UV Laser Mode. Gradually drains overtime and automatically ends UV Laser Mode when empty. While in Heavy Machine Gun Mode, the gauge gradually recovers, and hitting with certain skills such as "This'll whittle you down to size!" will recover it to full.
Rumble Mode
Activates under 30% health
This mode is automatically activated once Stroheim falls bellow 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 Guage drops.
