I've Been Watching And Fighting Doctor Doom And Learning His Moves By Now, And I Love His Attacks. He Has So Much Utility And That Makes Me Wanna Own Him So Bad, His Special 1 Has A Small Shock, Special 2 Has A LOT Of Incinerate, Special 3 Has An Awesome Animation I Can't Stop Watching. The Doom Castle. Other Than That (Mystic)

    More important question: why are you using Title Caps?

    Yes Doom is great. I have him at r3 about to go to r4. Power control, shock and incinerate, crit resistance. Also he slaps the bejeezus out of defenders with the back of his hand, which is awesome.

    He is a god of the PRESTIGE!

    God Tier for sure. Definitely a good mystic champ, especially since the class is lacking

    Based on the videos I've seen Doom is the prestige king for sure but I believe in a skilled players hands he is quite possibly the power drain king and yesss God tier but it will depend on the players skill... good luck if your going for him 1.25 hrs till the arena starts!

    His sp3 reminds me of Galick Gun (Vegeta uses this attack)

    Doom is God-tier flavor of the month.

    Like all the Doctors that came before him.

    But what about 3 months from now?

    Answer: It’ll be another flavor-of-of the-month champ available in another 50 dollar crystal.

    If you are “lucky”...

    Hopefully, this new champ will also be an actual MCU character we care about.

    ...and as for Doom?

    Hopefully, he won’t have caught the latest bug and will still work “as intended”....

    (What’s the RNG for that?!!! Lol...)

    My initial thoughts on doom weren’t great. After using him for a while he his an awesome champ overall. Lots of fun

    High demi-god at most. On defense, his mechanics are not difficult to play around, on offense he can be very fun to play and can do shock damage consistently as well as chain into heavy

    He’s Bug Tier
  • RoninManRoninMan Posts: 747 ★★★★
    He is pretty decent at shutting down buffs and decent with power controlling the opponent. He might be a good option for unstoppable toggle in war or counter buff heavy champs like Jugg or Hype since it’s pretty easy to land a stagger. Also he is so incredibly tanky adding to his value as an attacker.

    I was one of the people who judged Doom a bit to early and didn't think that he did justice to his comic-book counterpart in terms of the abilities.

    His animations are amazing, his prestige is through the roof. Moderately annoying on defense, could be nasty with the right node combinations. One of the strongest nullifier and power control champions in the game.

    He has a unique playstyle with his shock-heavy mechanic. Damage is also not bad, can reach very high numbers when the whole team is K.O'ed.

    Is he as game-breakingly overpowered as hardcore Doctor Doom fans such as myself wanted him to be? Nope, definitely not. Is he god tier? Yes.

    You mean his prestige is “through the roof” as a pun intended right?

    Because Doom’s Sp3 is so “through the roof” that the animation lags every time I have to go to Doom castle.

    I get it—it’s cool. For like the first ten times. Then it’s just annoying.

    It would have made a great Easter egg. But as an Sp3 I have to constantly see: I’m over it.

    All this extra animation just slows the game down in more ways than one.

    Doom bug indeed.

    I have never wanted to be able to skip a champion’s Sp3 animation before Doom.

    Now I do.

    Bugs the heck out of me all this money wasted on animations that don’t actually improve the game play....

    What about a fix to the game mechanics so we can actually play characters whose abilities require being able to make inputs after any special attack....Doom included.

    Such needless and bloated “Animation” is ruining the game.... in my opinion .....and making it harder to do basic attacks, which requires real skill....

    I’m talking about issues regarding charging heavies and timing parries....

    And various other input problems I’ve see reported all over the forums....

    ...not just getting to a “killer” SP3 before your opponent does.

    This thread didn’t age particularly well did it. I’m sure most would easily consider him best mystic in the game, or toss him up with Sym Supreme and Claire Voyant

    He is pain in my rear tier

    In my opinion, Doom is the best mystic champ in the game. I have a 6 star Sym Supreme that I love, but I think that Doom is an all around better champ, though Sym is better in matchups that are buff heavy whereas Doom is a solid champ all around. My Doom is 5/65 and Sig35, I use him for everything and I love how fluid he is. He has great damage, synergies, and debuffs, plus power control and passive stuns. I have no regrets ranking him. All that said, I do have a Claire Voyant and awakened, but she's only r1 (I pulled her after I ranked Doom) and I don't play her enough outside of arena to comment on her, so maybe she's better than Doom, but until I take her to r5 (which I plan to do) I'm gonna say that Doom is the best.

    I have a Sig 200 r5 Doom. Absolutely love him. He’s just an incredibly well rounded champ. Most definitely “God tier”.... not just another prestige champ by any means. Absolutely smashed fights in Act 6.3 for me...
