Curse You Richards! The Doctor Doom Thread

Imma just leave this here. make of it what you will.

I have big fears of doom being screwed since so much of his game revolved around abusive stuff they might be very likely to nerf or remove.

I don’t care what color his little blasts are, but am i the only one seriously saddened by the damage from the full hit Air particle beam? That did next to nothing.

Also while having his air fireball actually do something other than suck, i still don’t see it being that good. Hitting with it still probably isn’t worth the effort and it still leaves the opponent in a strange spot if you want to DHC.

I have some of the same concerns. I was also wondering if Doom can stay at the top of the screen like in mvc2 and keep shooting those photon array shots?

i hope doom is gonna be faster in mvc3.

he was too clunky to hang with the top tiers in mvc2 after 2002 and the discovery of wave dashing hurts his photon game badly.

He’s not that chip king he once was. You can rain down shots, but they don’t do hardly any chip. he feels really slow n clunky too IMO. I hate how his c.a is his lp, you can’t really do j. u/b laser runaway anymore. Just remember guys, “things are being changed”. He lost his qcf+pp super, qcf+pp is now photon shots super and it the same direction in the air. regular photon shots are thee old qcb. I kept doing qcb+a+b, lol. MvC2 habits (better game imo than 3)

Why does DD’s voice suck so bad?

its cuz of the mask. Do you know how hard it is to speak with a metal mask bolted to your face? its rough, I gotta say…

His ground dash looked pretty fast in the demo videos. It wasn’t wavedashed, but it didn’t look that much slower than in MvC2 to me.

His (normal) jump worries me, it looks a little floaty, even compared to MvC2, where it was no great shakes. If his air dash is still gonna suck, he’ll need a better jump.

Yellow Photon Shot is STILL blasphemy.

The yellow shots look fine. The king of Latveria shouldn’t be shooting pink energy beams.

As long as Doom puts out above average ATK and Health…the guy will be fine. MS doesn’t look as long as it once was, which is fine, because that thing was alittle too good for its own good. Still looks powerful and covers good range…just doesn’t look as abusable.

Everything else looks about right(PS looks like it starts up slightly slower though)…even his jp.HP still looks the same.

And this crap about pink and yellow…guys, thats for color contrast, c’mon. Doom is dark green and silver, so the artist had to make color attacks stick out from Dooms colors…so bright blue, yellow, and pink came to mind.

“Latveria shall ever be Latveria”

Photons should be that white-blue, yellow over these dark ass backgrounds isnt mixing well

Fixed.

I’m praying he gets a better snapback this time.

Doom was always able to combo into Sphere Flame…>_>

I agree…make em hot pink!! And, for the record, Cage isn’t ‘that’ ass…

Trish is gonna be god-tier…nuff said.

My take:

-Doom’s supers do shit damage when compared to MvC2 (Sphere Flame does roughly the same amount of damage, meanwhile APA got nerfed…even though gaining a buff in which it pulls the opponent down so that the max amount of photons connect).

-Molecular Shield does slightly less chip. Meanwhile it has less recovery time than before…startup as far as the rocks coming onto the screen looks the same as before.

-His movement is slightly slower than in MvC2, jump is floaty, and his forward super jump momentum is still ass.

-The Sphere Flame after effect buff is good…makes the super somewhat safer…but still does shit damage for the payoff of one blast possibly connecting. Good for safe DHC’s that’s about it…

-During PA supers he fires 6 shots instead of the normal 5…

-Plasma Beam hits multiple times compared to a single knockback. Air Plasma Beam is slower now…

-His Nazi Kick launcher is slower, much slower…

-The ‘Rocket Pedal’ shows a bit of promise…though, like the Molecular Shield, he’s very vulnerable while doing it. From the looks of things it tracks where the opponent was last standing when they’re released.

-He takes damage like a bitch…I say give him Super Skrull’s stamina.

For now I say MvC2 Doom >> This one

even if he isnt that good compared to his mvc2 version,i will still main him since he was always cool to me

Nice write up Deth-Scyanyde, I really would like my mVc2 Doom back please.

yes. that is called nerfing. it’s inevitable as death and taxes in fighters. but just because he might not be top tier anymore doesn’t mean he will suck balls either.

dr doom was never top since fagneto was so incredibly fast while spamming psylocke

Actually, in the very beginning of Mvc2 life span, Doom was one of the best if not the best(before people found out how good the top 4 are). Further more, he’s still considered top tier. Mag is just GOD tier, which as we know is better then top tier.

Anywho, i just hope Doom will have his same unqiue abilities( fast over head kick, calling assist in air combos,etc).

dr.dooms divekick always made me laugh because people always had trouble avoiding it
