Esidisi (エシディシ, Eshidishi) 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 along.
Esidisi has 800 health and uses the Heat Mode Battle Style. During a fight, he can use various attacks and abilities of his featured in Battle Tendency.
Outside of the All-Star Battle Mode, Esidisi has unique interaction dialogue for both his match entrances and victories when facing certain characters.
