ASBR Ermes title call.png

Ermes Costello (エルメェス・コステロ, Erumēsu Kosutero) was confirmed for All-Star Battle R during the game's initial announcement trailer.[1] She was one of the four characters playable in the game's second Early Access Demo alongside Jotaro Kujo, Jolyne Cujoh, and Foo Fighters.

Her moveset is fundamentally the same as hers from All-Star Battle, with a few tweaks being made to both balance the character and fit her into the overall gameplay changes that All-Star Battle R brought.

In the English version of All-Star Battle R, the name of Ermes's Stand, Kiss, is localized as "Smack", the same name used in the original All-Star Battle.

Mutsumi Tamura reprises her role from the Stone Ocean anime, replacing Chizu Yonemoto. As with the majority of the game's roster, voice lines for Ermes were either added or re-recorded.

Gameplay

Ermes has 1050 health, the highest of any character in the game. She uses the Stand (スタンド, Sutando) Battle Style, which allows her to freely summon and withdraw her Stand Kiss, dynamically changing her moveset in the process.

Skills [Stand Off] (コマンド技)
Here's where ya stick it! (こんな「シール」の使い方)
ASBDPad2.pngASBDPad2.png + ASBL.png/ASBM.png/ASBH.png ON GROUND
Ermes applies Kiss's stickers to herself, duplicating her limbs whenever she attacks. This skill passively doubles the number of hits Ermes and Kiss deal in various skills and abilities; this increases her effective strength, improves her combo potential and safety when her attacks are guarded, and boosts the rate that her attacks build Heart Heat. However, due to the increased hit count, her combo damage scaling is inversely affected.
The attack button inputted determines where she places the stickers.
  • Light (ASBL.png: Ermes places stickers on her arms.
  • Medium (ASBM.png): Ermes places stickers on her legs.
  • Heavy (ASBH.png): Ermes places stickers on her arms then her legs.

A sticker icon above the Heat Heat Gauge displays where she has stickers applied, with arm stickers appearing on the left and leg stickers appearing on the right (facing right).

USHAAAA! (うしゃアアアアーッ)
ASBDPad2.pngASBDPad3.pngASBDPad6.png + ASBL.png/ASBM.png/ASBH.png ON GROUND
Ermes slides forward and summons Kiss to punch the opponent. The distance Ermes moves forward and the damage dealt increases in ASBL.pngASBM.pngASBH.png order, but the greater the increase, the more vulnerable Ermes becomes. The attack changes slightly based on which attack button is inputted. (Flash Cancel comboable)
  • Light (ASBL.png: Kiss performs an upward punch once.
  • Medium (ASBM.png): Kiss performs the initial upward punch but quickly follows it up with two more punches.
  • Heavy (ASBH.png): Kiss performs the initial upward punch as well as the two follow up. It then punches one more time before performing an uppercut, launching the opponent. However, the opponent will be able to Down Evade when they hit the ground as this does not hard knockdown.

The attack deals more damage if Kiss's stickers are applied to Ermes's arms.

Attack type: High
Damage: ASBL.png 45 (normal) 59 (stickers) / ASBM.png 66 (normal) 85 (stickers) / ASBH.png 95 (normal) 119 (stickers)

Uryaaaaa! (ウォリャアアアアアーッ)
ASBDPad6.pngASBDPad2.pngASBDPad3.png + ASBL.png/ASBM.png/ASBH.png ON GROUND
Ermes summons Kiss as the both of them unleash a strong uppercut in unison, knocking the opponent into the air. The ASBM.png and ASBH.png variants have invulnerability. However, as a trade off, they cannot be Flash Canceled. Ermes and Kiss will also slide forward if she uses one of these variants. Both the invulnerability period and the distance Ermes and Kiss move increase in ASBM.pngASBH.png order. This move functions as a reversal and anti-air attack, and if performed on an already airborne opponent, they will be launched much higher. (ASBL.png variant Flash Cancel comboable)
The attack deals more damage if Kiss's stickers are applied to her arms.

Attack type: High
Damage: ASBL.png 60 (normal) 70 (stickers) / ASBM.png 70 (normal) 90 (stickers) / ASBH.png 80 (normal) 110 (stickers)

It's quite useful... (けっこう便利だったりして)
ASBDPad2.pngASBDPad1.pngASBDPad4.png + ASBL.png/ASBM.png/ASBH.png ON GROUND
Ermes grabs a duplicated broom to fly a distance forwards. When she contacts an opponent or at the end of her travel, the original broom she was flying towards will combine with the duplicate. It will launch the opponent away if connected. The distance Ermes travels and damage dealt increases in ASBL.pngASBM.png order, but the greater the increase, the more vulnerable Ermes becomes. However, the ASBH.png variant is a feint, as Ermes will take out a broom but immediately put it away, which is useful for both offensive and defensive purposes. (Flash Cancel comboable)

Attack type: High
Damage: ASBL.png 30 / ASBM.png 35

Peel it off and it merges back into one! (これをはがせばひとつに戻るッ!)
ASBDPad4.pngASBDPad2.pngASBDPad1.png + ASBL.png/ASBM.png/ASBH.png ON GROUND
Ermes briefly summons Kiss to uppercut the opponent with a sticker in its hand. If it connects, the opponent will have their head duplicated, before Ermes quickly snatches the sticker off, damaging them and knocking them down.

ASBDPad2.pngASBDPad3.pngASBDPad6.png + ASBL.png/ASBM.png/ASBH.png ON GROUND
Kiss performs a melee combo. The attack button inputted determines what attacks make up the melee assault and how long it lasts. The attack deals more damage based on which stickers Ermes has applied.
  • Light (ASBL.png): Kiss delivers a short barrage of punches. The attack's damage is only affected by Ermes having arm stickers. (Flash Cancel comboable)
  • Medium (ASBM.png): Kiss delivers the barrage of punches, but continues its assault by kicking multiple times, knocking the opponent into the air. The attack's damage is affected by both arm and leg stickers. (Flash Cancel comboable)
  • Heavy (ASBH.png): Kiss delivers the short barrage of punches followed by kicking multiple times, which knocks the opponent into the air. It then finishes its assault by spinning around and delivering a heafty backhanded-punch, knocking the opponent to the ground a distance away. The last hit cannot be Flash Canceled. The attack's damage is affected by both arm and leg stickers.

This is a Stand Rush skill that Ermes can disconnect from to attack the opponent while it is executing. However, the last hit on the ASBH.png variant cannot be Stand Rushed, and if this variant is Stand Rushed, the last hit will not be performed.

Attack type: High
Damage:

Ermes and Kiss both move forward and unleash a powerful downward spinning kick in unison. If the opponent is hit, they are left crumpling to the ground. The distance Ermes and Kiss move and the damage dealt increases in ASBL.pngASBM.pngASBH.png order, but so does vulnerability. The attack deals more damage if Kiss's stickers are applied to Ermes's legs. (Comboable)

Throw (投げ技)
Asshole! (コラァッ!)
2 ATK buttons near opponent or ASBT.png (ASBDPad4.png to back-throw) ON GROUND
Ermes pushes the opponent off-balance before taking a sticker off of a broom, causing it and its duplicate, which has appeared behind the opponent, to smash together and catch them in the middle.

Attack type: Throw
Damage: 130

Heart Heat Attack / Great Heat Attack (HHA / GHA)
I know what you're after! (お前の狙いは完璧にわかったッ!)
ASBDPad2.pngASBDPad3.pngASBDPad6.png + 2 ATK Buttons ON GROUND
A counter. Ermes places a sticker on herself and readies for an attack. If struck by a non-projectile/GHA attack, she'll kick the opponent away before Kiss delivers a massive counter combo. As the sticker is inevitably removed afterward, Ermes will take minor Sticker Damage whether or not the HHA is successful. She will also always be left in User Mode regardless of whether this HHA is successful or not.
This HHA deals more damage if Kiss's stickers are applied to her arms and legs.

Attack type: Counter
Damage: 200 (normal) / 250 (arm stickers only) / 220 (leg stickers only) / 310 (both stickers)

I know exactly what you're after! Right there! (おまえの狙いは完璧にわかったッ! そこだァー!)
Eat this! And this! And this! (これも! これも! これも! これも!)
ASBDPad2.pngASBDPad3.pngASBDPad6.png + 3 ATK Buttons or ASBG.png ON GROUND
Claiming her Stand as a tool for revenge, Ermes wields a sticker and lunges forward in a melee strike. If the attack lands, she'll slap the sticker on the opponent's head, causing it to duplicate as Kiss kicks the opponent multiple times. The Stand then switches to fists and pummels them repeatedly, gradually raising them into the air. Just as the opponent begins to fall, Ermes suddenly rips the sticker off and turns away, dealing damage as the opponent's head violently merges back into one, similarly to how she killed Sports Maxx.

Attack type: High
Damage: 336 / 403 / 504 (depending on HH gauge)

Here's my thanks for everything... Eat this! And this! And this! Right back at you jerk! (これは今までのお礼だ… これも! これも! これも! これも! まとめて返すぜぇぇぇーーーーーッ)
Assist System (アシストシステム)
Assault Assist (アサルトアシスト)
ON GROUND
A three-stock assist. Ermes lands in and grabs a duplicated broom to fly a distance forwards with Kiss. When they contact an opponent or at the end of their travel, the original broom they were flying towards will combine with the duplicate, launching the opponent away if it connects.

Attack type: High
Damage: 75

Reversal Assist (リバーサルアシスト)
ON GROUND
A one-stock assist. Ermes and Kiss jump into the opponent, knocking them away with an overhead kick from Kiss. Ermes then dismisses her Stand, poses, and jumps back off-screen.

Attack type: High

USHAAAA!
ASBDPad2.pngASBDPad3.pngASBDPad6.png + ASBL.png/ASBM.png/ASBH.png ON GROUND
While the number of punches thrown still depends on the attack button inputted, there is a greater increase in the number of hits across the versions, with each increase in button strength adding two punches, maxing out at six with the ASBH.png variant (the same number as in All-Star Battle). However, the damage has been redistributed to accommodate this, so the damage of the skill is comparable. The distance forward Ermes and Kiss move is also significantly less than it was in All-Star Battle for all variants of the skill, though the ASBH.png variant is the most obvious. Additionally, while the startup of the ASBH.png variant is comparable, the actual punches execute much slower now, resulting in the hitbox being more active.
Uryaaaaa!
ASBDPad6.pngASBDPad2.pngASBDPad3.png + ASBL.png/ASBM.png/ASBH.png ON GROUND
The ASBM.png and ASBH.png variants can no longer be Flash Canceled. These two variants also have Ermes and Kiss moving forward more than they did in All-Star Battle. Furthermore, the ASBL.png variant no longer has invulnerability on its startup and Ermes and Kiss no longer move forward.

Ermes also no longer passes through opponents with this skill. Instead, it now always behaves like how it did in Stand Mode in All-Star Battle, with the attack hitting and dealing damage. However, the feint on her ASBH.png variant has been kept. To go along with that, the voiceline Ermes says while using this skill has been standardized so that it is less obvious when she is using the feint. She now always uses the voiceline she previously used only for her ASBH.png variant. Ermes also flies forward a significantly lesser distance than she did in All-Star Battle.
The translation of the name of this skill has changed as well. Previously, it was Pretty handy, huh? instead of It's quite useful....

This skill no longer needs to be inputted multiple times to deal its follow-up hits. Instead, the different attack buttons determine how much of the full barrage Kiss performs.
  • ASBL.png: Only deals the punch barrage attack.
  • ASBM.png: Adds in the kick barrage.
  • ASBH.png: Adds both the kick barrage and the last spinning punch.

As a result of this, Ermes cannot use the follow-up as she pleases unless she commits to the greater recovery time of the higher strength variants. However, this change also results in the third part of the barrage in the ASBH.png variant connecting naturally without having to have stickers on Ermes's legs. Furthermore, aerial opponents no longer fall out in-between the different parts of the attack.

On his face! Just above the middle!
ASBDPad6.pngASBDPad2.pngASBDPad3.png + ASBL.png/ASBM.png/ASBH.png ON GROUND
The distance Ermes and Kiss move now increases in ASBL.pngASBM.pngASBH.png order instead of staying the same. When hitting an airborne opponent, it is now possible that the opponent will not be knocked to the ground like they always would in All-Star Battle.
