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.
As Keiji Fujiwara, Esidisi's voice actor in the Battle Tendency anime, All-Star Battle, and Eyes of Heaven, passed away in April 2020,[3] Esidisi is one of the few characters to re-use voice lines from his past appearances.
Gameplay
Esidisi has 800 health and uses the Mode (モード, Mōdo) Style, which allows him to toggle use of his unique Mode at any time during battle, at the cost of draining his Heart Heat Gauge. Furthermore, as a Pillar Man, part of the damage Esidisi receives from non-Ripple attacks is automatically converted into recoverable gray health.

While "Heat Control" or "The Burning King" (the install) is active, the attack is changed to Esidisi launching veins from his whole upper body in a forward barrage, massively increasing the attack's general range.

- 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".
