After that, it confirmed that Team Rival will consist of Dolores, Isla, and Heidern. Both Dolores and Isla are new to the series. Though one of them has a familiar sort of power. SNK Character Designer Tomohiro Nakata talked about Isla’s spectral hands and how they compare to the ones Shun’ei uses.
