Domino is utterly ridiculous

On this current mutant academy event quest (master level) Domino appears on 3.2 (Omega Red's map). She is 5* duped sig level 45 with a PI of 9419. I find her harder to fight than Omega Red!!!! Utterly utterly ridiculous if you ask me. What counters does she have?

Intercept her or die mate basically domino is not so bad it’s all the stupid dam bugs what annoys me. Stupid dropped block blocks not registering ai doing specials right through your blocks. Can’t help but feel kabam are the biggest cheaters in the contest. True story lol

Not many real counters just learn her play style hulk ragnarok is pretty good but for the most part she is pretty bs, but she much easier this month that last month when she was posted up on the buffet node

Yes she is

@Hfchang I tend to fight her in just about every war. You get used to her when you see her enough. Some general tips:

-She can be stunned under the same circumstances as Yondu. If you're close to her and she does a medium attack, she'll use her guns, which can't be parried. If you put some distance between you and her, she'll dash in. This dash CAN be parried, though it has a chance to fail and not stun her, so be careful.

-Go for the parry for the damage reduction, but assume she'll never be stunned. If she does happen to get stunned, attack her if you have the opening.

-If you don't get the parry, just hold block until you see your next move. DO NOT attempt to evade out of her attacks mid-combo. You will get hurt. Eat the block damage and wait for your opening.

-If you're blocking her enough, she'll eventually throw her heavy, which has a serious windup. Dodge and punish the heavy.

-If you're unlucky (red icon under your health bar), don't attempt to evade her L1. Just take the block damage. Whenever she begins the animation, you can evade the kick and then hold block. She'll toss the grenade in the air before sending it your way. They made this animation pretty long...long enough for you to check to see whether or not you're unlucky (I believe the designers did this on purpose). If you're unlucky, just block the grenade.

-Whenever possible, push her to her L2. The L2 can be 100% avoided even if you're unlucky and you can punish her afterward.

-If she is lucky (green icon under her health bar), attack her like you'd attack a classic Spider-man. She has an evade chance. MLLL combos are your friend, don't finish combos with a Medium while she's lucky.

I hope something in there helps. You'll likely take damage against any sufficiently strong Domino just from critical failure. As long as you're prepared for that, she can be a pretty straightforward fight and can be countered by any champ.

When she dashes in evade and immediately counter with your dash attack. Her medium dash is very long and i have never had this strategy not work.

LeNoirFaineant

If you use a tech champ like SL and fight her like @Xerograv1ty suggests you can beat her without losing health.

Carames

Her specials are easy to evade and she loves being baited into using her heavy attack. I've never understood why so many people seem to think that she's so nasty to fight. You might not get out of the fight without losing some health, but she's far from unbeatable. I've had lots of success against her with SL, Hulk, Drax, Beast, etc.

Welderofortune

Do not take Sentinel as his analysis charges are fair game for critical failure, she wreaked me so bad it was not funny because of that.

Kobster84

Sparky is a great counter as most of his abilities are a 100% to activate making it quite hard for critical failure to activate

@Mirage_Turtle lays it out nicely. If you parry often, the answer is to make her charge you from a distance, which is the only reliable way to parry her.

Hitting to Sp2 is also effective, since you can easily evade and counterattack.

As for her Sp1, never, ever try to Dex the projectile if you have an Unlucky debuff—just grit your teeth and block it.

SL for me is a strong counter. Also AoU Vision. Good luck.

this guy eats his Wheaties.

watch a video. domino is ezmode.

Up for this. One of the most things i hate in some of my ally-mates is that if they’re about to face imiw/domino in war, they accept the fate that they’ll get wrecked.you know, instead of asking for tips in forums, watch vid guides, or even practice in duel, they’ll just go straight in and die 2-3 times. Learning and adapting is essential.

MrMaat

i fight her just like mirage turtle mentions.

i always try and keep some space forcing her to dash in and go for the parry.
if she is stunned i combo her.
if not i keep blocking until she heavies.

bait her sp1 much better than her sp2 imo.
i like using CAIW or similar against her because he has such high block pro.

also if she is lucky i try my best to stay away. parry and back away. even eat block damage. but dun try and hit her and she cant evade.
also slow down the fight and wait it out if ur unlucky.

quy_beu

not try, but i think Proxima is good against Domino since Proxima can stun parry any basic attack

@Mirage_Turtle Thank you for taking the time to type out your reply! I'll screenshot this and try and take it all into account. Sometimes when I read her abilities I scratch my head, so this is really helpful. cheers

She’s pretty easy, just dext her medium then immediately 5 hit combo
