Only when you’re getting close to the corner. Even then, the spacing tends to be pretty lenient. For the j.
:h::s: loops, you can switch between neutral and forward jumps. For me, using neutral jumps are a lot easier.
Oh and if you mess up and teleport a bit late (very hard to do lol), you can always get rid of one j.:h::s: loop and it still builds one meter.
works almost anywhere, but be careful if you’re too close to the corner. they’ll wall bounce too early and the combo wont work, what you can do if you see you’re close to the corner is cancel to fly, fly forward a bit then do bcs and one rep of jump loop into the rest.
Does anyone have any dorm combos using drones assist? I’ve come up with some stuff but I cant find many uses for them in combos.If anyone has any videos using drones assist in combos, post em because I wanna make sure I’m not missing out on any obvious stuff thats just gone right over my head.
I play Doom(beam)/Dorm(Hole)/Sent (drones).Right now my mid screen combo with dorm+sentinel does 725k without DHC and my corner combo with plasma beam assist does like 770k without DHC.
I play dorm/strange/sent most of the time, and i dont have a combo that uses drones really. usually ill end a combo by calling sent drones and flame carpet, into teleport mixup, and if they guess wrong they get hit by drones and its another free combo for dorm
Check the main guide.
Yeah this is what I’ve been doing for my 725k combo.
Reading through your guide though its just as a I thought, theres not really much you can do with Drones combo wise. They’re amazing for safe resets into mass change though.
Brilliant guide by the way! I never knew this existed, it should really be stickied. This stuff looks like it belongs in the guide and every spoiler tag is filled to the brim with useful information unlike every other character forum.
quick questions
what’s the best possible guaranteed chip setup you can get on an incoming char with XF2 dorm?
also, when in XF and going for chip, what should I keep in mind when prioritizing my moves?
thanks!
Yo Im feeling Mighty Doomish with that dark matter Combo.
Good one to do if u dont want to spend meter is flame carpet > fly > dark hole, call assist and teleport at the same time or go for another dark hole. Flight lets u use multiple specials in the air. They are forced to block the dark hole, assist, flame carpet and mixup depending on where you tp too.
I love Trish as an assist.

Notation: L, M, H, A1(Pekaboo), j.MMH, j.MMH, j.MHS, M, S, j.MMHS, Lib>Flame
Meter gain is 110%
Edit: Sorry about the weird video. I didn’t expect it to end up like that on my phone.
Here’s a follow up video to the post I made earlier on this page about my team (Wolv/Dorm/Iron Fist) and Dorm fitting into it. I does fantastic damage IMO.

Can someone explain to me the unblockable Dormammu has against an incomming character in the corner using a flame carpet and assist like Ammy’s Cold Star?
Flame carpet hits low, they can’t block both hi & low.
never heard about the cold star thing.
I want to know if the Dorm unblockables still exist in ultimate. The flame carpet doesnt stay out for very long on block or hit anymore so the timing for unblockables seem either super tight or just straight up impossible.
Also can’t people just push block flame carpets before anything else hits them? I play someone who uses the Dorm/Ammy ‘unblockable’ and really its just a hard to blockable.If you push block and guard in the right places the flame carpet unblockable doesnt really work anymore.
Yeah I was told by the guy teaching me that if they pushblock Ammy the land on the carpet or something to that effect. I think the trick is to Snap out the character, throw flame carpet just as Ammy comes in then Mass Change M to teleport to the other side. It’s kind of a double mixup, if you succesfully block Ammy you should get hit by the flame carpet.
I forget the specifics of it and wanted to get some more inforamtion.
What’s this combo I hear about that uses flight and air dark hole?
^try the last page.

Thanks. I knew I had seen it somewhere but couldn’t remember for the life of me lol. Did I mention I love Trish as an assist?
I don’t know the specifics with Cold Star, but anything where you make them come out into some sort of hitbox, but switch sides behind them just before they hit it will be a very-hard-to-blockable. Adding hi-low to it with carpet and overhead is even nastier. In fact it honestly just may be that if u can drop carpet and use Cold star to force them to get touched by an air normal while landing on carpet, ding
Anyhow, on a separate topic, I’m contemplating trying Dorm out in Frank’s place on Nova Frank/Dorm Hawkeye. EVen though it’s his least popular assist, I got used to Nova’s C assist (not pulse or the overhead) since it helped Frank. But might it also help dorm with OTG pickups since it wall bounces? I have to experiment, and it may be nothing midscreen, but might lead to some good stuff in or near a corner?
Also, any general ideas for doing better than ABCS BBCS without an OTG assist to let you do it twice? The Bible has combos involving using fwd+H and teleporting, but didn’t know if that was the accepted stuff you guys use. Sometimes the book is dead on, sometimes the forums find better shit. I’ll review this thread, but just wondering if someone can point in a good direction. Thanks!
ThisGuileKillYa:
One way to improve Dorm’s damage output without an OTG assist is with a horizontal hitting assist and flame carpet. Nova’s rocket punch assist will work fine in the corner, but midscreen there’s not much you can do with it. Here’s the combo I would suggest using in the corner with that assist.
j.S s.M s.H f.H s.S neutral superjump j.M j.M j.H j.S (Call Nova assist right before hitting the ground) Flame Carpet s.S j.M j.M j.H j.S liberation L Chaotic Flame(804,500 dmg fully mashed, can hit 1 mil+ if you DHC into Super Nova.)
Hope this helps. (PS this combo should work with any horizontal hitting assist, I personally use Plasma Beam or Ryu’s Tatsu)
