Castle Doom: Doctor Doom Video Thread

I should have been a bit more specific. The grounded special QCB+ATK version has its uses against teleporters and people trying to jump in because it covers so many angles, whereas plasma beam can be easily SJ trijump df’d into combo’d against. Air photon shot j.QCB+L is a good way to cover yourself before footdive or if you want to stop your opponent from approaching you in the air. Aerial photon array is kind of a waste of meter because in my experience it’s unsafe even on hit. Grounded QCB+2ATK photon array is good to keep distance and stop teleporters as well… sorry for the misunderstanding.

Yo your video with the haggar resets and stuff is awesome. I like how u use king kobun to give you ample time to follow up with a haggar combo after the body press. cool stuff man!

lol thanks it was like 2 in the morning and i thought ‘imma send this to SRK, why not, the worst they can do is not publish it’ but keits ended up posting it anyway. lolol

set my friend and I did. would like some feedback, tips etc. on my doom play( or tron or sent if you have any)

I applaud your lameness with Doom, though I think you could maybe throw in a few more hidden missiles and :h: photon arrays for more pace changes (I even use molecular shield on a rare occasion). It was also weird to me how you didn’t call Sentinel sometimes on the incoming character especially considering that it was Wesker and Tron coming in who both really only have forward/backward air mobility. You could’ve just called in Sentinel drones to force block and do a random number of tri-dashes in front of the opponent to make them flinch.

I usually try to chip out as much as I can versus other characters as much as I can if I’m afraid of them, or I’ll sometimes just rush right in. I have a bad habit of hitting buttons and hoping for a counterhit, instead of blocking and taking an opportunity.
i have been messing around with different characters and was just testing out this team. I’m not really fond of tron or sentinel in this game, but the DHC from doom to tron to sent kills anything and it flows very smoothly.
Been also messing around with Doom/Spencer/xxx, but not really sure on a third, maybe task.

Well…when in doubt, throw Wesker onto a team with Doom. I used to use Wesker/Spencer/Doom. Or Spencer first, Wesker second. It’s not too bad of a team since Spencer can still do DHC glitches with Doom if that’s a part of your game plan. Plus, Bionic Arm is an easy set up for Sphere Flame, XF, Sphere Flame.

i cant put wesker on my team, he brings a dirty feeling to the table. I would put phoenix on my team and feel better than wesker :confused: thanks for the info tho!

Wesker or Haggar would probably be ideal, but it’s understandable if you don’t like playing those characters.

Dirty feeling? Psh…people say that about prostitution, but they don’t complain about it when the worker gets down to business. Well, unless the worker’s ugly. But Wesker’s not ugly. Wesker’s one of those classy hoes.

But uh, yeah, Haggar seems to work for that team as well; with the obvious pairing being Doom/Haggar (though Spencer can do some OTG work as well). There used to be that guy on option select who used that team really well. Plus, I think some Haggar players have been of the opinion that Haggar on point is actually one of the few characters who can hold up in the Wolverine match-up fairly well.

I can second Doom/Spenc/Haggar, but don’t neglect Doom/Spenc/Ammy and Doom/Spenc/Dante.

The last two give access to lockdown for mixups. Dante jam session is a cross of cold star and Haggar. Vulnerable on startup but you get lockdown for mixup as well as mixups on incoming characters.

And I believe you are referring to me with that comment? I believe that you were the guy at the Edmonton stay salty tournament that played the same team as me, just in a more high tier order. (If im wrong, ignore that bit) Yes, as a Haggar on point player i do believe that the Haggar/wolvie matchup is even, especially with Doom beam to back Haggar up.

To Diet, I would agree with the people saying Haggar on that team as Doom and Haggar are BFF’s as well as Haggar functioning well with Spencer. I would watch some of videos of Timothy (there are some up on the option-select youtube channel, he plays Doom/Spencer/Haggar in varying orders) as well as some videos of Cheech Wizard (Haggar/Task/Doom, also imo best Haggar player in the world) to see how well Haggar/Doom works together.

I second all this. only thing i dont like about doom/spencer/haggar is having haggar as anchor is basically free. no matter how good you are with haggar, he should not win against any character with a projectile or semi-zoning capabilities. also, i know combofiend makes spencer shine on anchor, but he is much better point. that said a team of spencer/haggar/x or doom/haggar/x is much better,

i know all about doom/haggar. I played doom/haggar/phoenix as my team for evo, ive just been looking for a different team to mess around with really. I dont have much fun playing as haggar, he’s just really good as an assist to use against people who like to press buttons.

Yeah, that’s me. I wasn’t specifically referencing you (if we did have that conversation, I don’t remember it at all) as I remember watching a few streams where commentators were talking about Haggar vs Wolverine. Can’t remember exactly which stream it was, but the more you think about it the more you can see the logic in the reasoning.

Anyway, another DHC fun team is Doom/Dorm/Sent. Though, you pretty much get wrecked by rushdown if you can’t find your spacing. Plus, it has Sentinel on it which is good/bad depending on your views on the robot.

me too. I feel like i have to build around his faults in order to use him.

I have recently been having a lot of fun with captain america/taskmaster/doom and spencer/taskmaster/doom

I like the former rather than the latter because captain america is just really fun to play and if u win with that dude u look so awesome.

and i only use the spencer team because vertical grapple combos with hidden missiles are very pimp looking.
