Am I crazy to be thinking about R5’ng Absorbing Man ahead of Doom?

So I decided to buy an Odin and got a Mystic R4-R5 Gem.
Doom was my first Mystic R4, and he’s great. I’ve max sigged him, have MD at level 4, and certainly use him. However, I run suicides a solid chunk of the time and he’s obviously less than optimal in that mode. My BG mastery setup generally does NOT have suicides though, so he’s pretty key there.
Despite really liking Doom, I recently max sigged my Absorbing man and he is a beast. Stronger in suicides obviously. I definitely do not have him mastered at the level I have Doom mastered, but I’m slowly getting there. Since I’m not quite as good with him yet, I feel like I might actually get more benefit with him at R5 to make up for my less than optimal play. And Doom already seems so tough at R4 I’m not sure it would be as much of a benefit for me.
So what do you think? Am I crazy?

My only input is that the extra combat power from the r5 might help Abs Man more, because Dooms already gets extra power from his abilities.
rank up that abs man and have a good time
I also really enjoy Absorbing Man so it's possible that he'll go up next among my mystic champions. Then there are Tigra, and Mojo, and only after that is probably Doom. For me personally.
If I was in your situation Abs would go straight to r5. Doom is great, but boring TBH. I have Doom at r3 and Abs at r4 and I barely use Doom and have no intentions to take him r4 any time soon.
