All-Star Battle R ★ Esidisi
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.
As Esidisi's one and only voice actor from his Battle Tendency anime adaptation, All-Star Battle, and Eyes of Heaven appearances, Keiji Fujiwara, passed away in April 2020,[3] Esidisi is one of the few characters to not have new or re-recorded voice lines, instead reusing ones from his past appearances.
Gameplay
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.

- Light (): Esidisi unleashes veins in a forward attack immediately upon leaving the ground, launching the opponent. (Flash Cancel comboable)
- Medium (): Esidisi jumps high into the air before his somersault and unleashes veins in a downwards attack after reaching the apex of his leap, locking the opponent in place for a moment before they crumple to the ground. (Comboable)
- Heavy (): Esidisi leaps forward and unleashes veins in a backwards attack as he somersaults, knocking the opponent off their feet. Esidisi doesn't leap as high as he does with the , resulting in him passing through the opponent if they are close enough. This is a cross-up attack meant to suddenly switch to the opponent's other side and strike before they can properly guard. (Flash Cancel comboable)

Moveset changes from All-Star Battle
- Light (: This variant does not launch opponents as far as it did in All-Star Battle.
- Medium (: Esidisi does not jump as far forward as he did in All-Star Battle. When an opponent is hit, they are now held in place for a moment before suffering a crumple rather than a groundbounce.
- Heavy (: Esidisi does not jump as far forward or as high as he did in All-Star Battle. This results in Esidisi often passing through the opponent rather than jumping over them if he's close enough. The hitbox has been extended backward, meaning that even if Esidisi does not manage to cross onto the other side of the opponent, they can still be hit by part of the attack (up to three hits) if they're close enough to Esidisi's back. However, they will not be launched.
Additionally, the translation for this skill has changed. Previously it was "Erratic Blaze King: Wheel of Pain" in place of "The Burning King: Wheel of Pain".
