Castle Doom: Doctor Doom Video Thread


BnB variations and DHC options for Doom/Haggar/Sentinel
Nothing fancy, just wanted to put out one more video before umvc3. Enjoy!

I got fourth over the weekend at at tourney. messed around with various team setups but all had doom. Here are a few games for your critique or humor or whatever.

This guy has a pretty crazy jill. I am not used to this matchup but damn, jill is hard to deal with. and dormammu is a problem. I have a tough time zoning him and stuff, not in this game per say but in casuals it was really difficult if doom had to deal with dormammu.

I’d really like critique and input on this match. I dropped some important shit and decided to press buttons instead of block in prime cases which turned the tide for me. How do you deal with people who are always fishing for air throws and how do you deal with viewtiful joe? It seems like so many of things are unsafe but when i try to punish stuff i get hit by weird stuff idk. I’ve challenged this guy in a few tournaments and he is getting much better and i’ve still only beat him twice out of like 5 or 6 times in tourneys

Here’s a game against someone who couldn’t block or do combos. basically exploiting haggar lariat. nothing special to see here.

Finally, what are the best ways to punish tatsu assist calls with doom, as well as best ways to punish jumping H/S into tatsu (ryu) without using sphere flame?

Some more of me vs my friend. Casuals X-23/Ammy/Doom vs Doom/Haggar/Sent(me)
Had some weird things happen in these matches including haggar stunning an assist, and doom grabbing sentinel’s j.m from about halfscreen at around 15:20 in that vid

Didn’t know where to put this seeing there’s no reset thread for Doom. Wanted to put up some useful reset options for Doom and see if anyone has some of there own or a link to some useful reset options for Doom. Sorry for the quality.

Not to shit on you or anything, but I think most Doom players pretty much forgo resets and simply use DHC’s to end combos since there’s barely anyone that can withstand one Doom combo paired with two DHCs.

But, as far as resets, I think this dude pretty much covered all possible non-assist resets way back when (starting at about 3 minutes in).

Pretty much, Doom resets are pointless.

I really don’t feel any reset is pointless if it works. To each his own I guess. I’ll continue to use resets and mixups to keep my opponent on edge.


My channel Has a handful of matchs with doom. Check them out :slight_smile:

i’m guessing you ahve tried, but just in case you haven’t, have you tried resetting your opponent in corner with otg M or H and instead of going for airthrow going for f+H to catch tech? the hard kick thing? works a lot, that said 950+ in corner kind of renders those resets futile

Yeah, I do that for fun every now and then. Dash cancel the f+:h: into footdive then either another f+:h: (crossunder), or just crossunder j.:m:. It’s neat, but you’re better off just finishing the combo 99.999% of the time. Doom builds more than enough bar to DHC in the unlikely even he doesn’t kill by himself.

Also, I’m really disappointed with my performance at Canada Cup this year, I didn’t even make it on the stream :(.

Floe put me into losers and then I had to face Bee (Beanus) right after, who’s also really good. They both made top 16, so I shouldn’t be too salty, but I think I could have done more. I ended up going 2 - 2.

Juggling being a pool judge and playing matches completely cold is not ideal though.

I think resets are important for anchor Doom if you don’t really wanna pop the XF yet or have already burnt out your XF. I’ll definitely be working on the reset game in Ultimate with Doom esepcially now that foot dive and j.H shenanigans are gonna be way stronger.

I like the use of the low to the ground f+H foot dives and convert into ADD c.L for juggle combos. I probably should have been doing that more in Vanilla also to deter air grabs a bit. Oh well…hurp durp S dive coming soon.

Do you think I foot dive too much? Is there any other ways I can approach my opponent?
Should I play more of a keep away and let them come to me?

Ok Doom Mains, i’m gonna release some new doom technology…here is a vid of a combo that me and friend have been using for a couple of months now. Tell me what you guys think.


i think it should also work in ultimate

^Good stuff. That looks like the easiest wall to wall carry combo I’ve seen.

I played Ultimate doom last night for a good amount of games. The only thing combo wise that hes lost is his corner loop x4 into st.H, call assist that holds them, H plasma beam into sphere flame combo. Maybe its still possible if you just do 3 loops instead.

Hi! I made a basic combos video for my team, it includes some new doom tricks. Not the most damaging but real flashy.

I like the video but I posted that combo back in April.

That combo is unrealisticly difficult against the majority of the cast that matters though.
The relaunch with Stand H doesn’t work against Wesker for example without two hits, but that really hurts the hit stun decay. Use S.M (1hit) into Hard kick to launch the whole cast for less damage. The need to boost damage leads into the next combo in this video …

A strictly better version is the one seen in this video at 12:17


It is actually easier than the “S” combo.

More damage in this one.

Also read post 228 in the combo thread.

I regularly use these combos in matches. You can see me do some in the Match video thread.

In any of those combos were you whiffing normals? like after the ‘S’? Cause in my combo i just whiff an j.H to get the ground quicker and then dash. I see that you’re doing the two 'j.m’s then f.h then ‘S’…i was wondering if you’re whiffing out any normals…thanks

I’m whiffing J.H during the down dash to land quicker.

I like it, I really do, I just picked up doom recently and Im playing him on point with storm and ammy and I feel those two characters make better use of meter than dr doom so Im planning on playing him as a battery and only using meter if it’ll kill the character so these resets should come in handy. Plus they look sexy as hell.

Brawl at the Beach - [media=youtube]B2sEg–_S0A[/media]
Tourney vid from a tournament held in Myrtle Beach SC about 2 weeks ago. Winners finals start around the 35 minute mark and grand finals start at 50minutes in (however there is a different Doom player playing in the loser’s finals should u want to watch it as well). Albeit the matches are just a tad one sided, i think those who choose to watch it would enjoy the stuff Doom is doing here.
