Curse You Richards! The Doctor Doom Thread

Any ideas for level 3’s if they go the cut scene type route for him
My idea:
Doom traps the opponent in an immobile state using magic or technology, that move being the start up hit. He then quickly sits on his chair leaning his head on his hand in a bored manor while blasting the opponent continually with the other hand, as a clock appears and turns quickly giving the illusion that more time has past. It would take about a few seconds longer than deadpools level 3. Dooms laugh can be heard throughout

I can’t wait for Dr. Doom to make a house call on my friends!

Electric hands from the newest railer should be his old electro ball from MvC2. just my 2 cents

Damn dude have you seen Mike Z play this fucker? He will kill you so quick! Doom/Tron= God Tier. He runs for 2 marvel seconds, the rest of the match he is pulling down storms pants and gives her a orgasm of death.

Lately I’ve been getting it in against most of these people online. Doom/Tron is making them quit! They can’t take it.

My opinion of this Doom though makes me upset though. They made him less versatile. In MVC2 he could run, rush, and keepaway all at the same time. Now they slowed down his movements. Good thing his recover is quicker :).

I REALLY hope that Electric Cage isn’t his level 3. It should be a level 1. It is nice in MVC2 though as you DHC out. Electric Cage pulls them in allowing you to Dhc into orbs which goes straight into the trap. But I can tell it would suck in MVC3.

Tron/Doom lockdown is the shizz! Too bad we likely won’t be seeing any of that in this game.

Looks like according to the other thread. Doom is still retiredly strong. Apparently Plasma beam is godlike and his X factor gives him insane amount of chip

Retiredly strong doesn’t sound very strong. Sounds kinda washed up.

Depends one whether or not the fix Plasma Beam (which was described as broken) and then buff some of his other moves. From what I’ve read, he’s broken but rather one-dimensional.

So I looked through this video a bit

[media=youtube]znXFUFrOyXU[/media]

and I noticed that Doom got although some new strengths in his plasma beam actually able to do shit in the damage department, his defense was Severely nerfed! if you noticed at 1:06 that hit took off as much as Dudley’s broken hard punch. And also the Molecular shields chip damage has a supreme nerf. I think my Doom has been fucked over for good :frowning: But hey at least the sphere flame hyper has some use now :slight_smile:

Also LOL at the Skrull special at the beginning

Here are some notable things about MVC3 Doom I noticed so far
Buffs:
[+] The Plasma Shot doesn’t do shit damage anymore, keeps em grounded, and its multiple hit so it could be a good assist move
[+] Molecular shield comes out quicker and the rocks vary alot in size
[+] Doom doesn’t stand there for 10 seconds to admire his stones after Molecular shield
[+] Sphere flame actually has a use O.O with a nice after effect
[+] His air dash is faster
[+] Whatever the hell that new special move is he has where explosives come out of the ground
[+] APA has a larger array range
[+] Photon Array range is larger making it a somewhat better AA
[+] He has a more improved zone game
[+] Decent Up close options

Nerfs: >.>
[-] Dear God he’s still slow
[-] Photon Shot no longer holds the victim in place but instead pushes them away leading to less hits plus it’s slightly weaker.
[-] The A.Hp or space beam crap seems to come out a bit slower…dammit
[-] His Defense is now at the point of near worse than Bonerine (Or Chris, Dante, and Chun hit hard as hell)
[-] Plasma beam still has a bit of startup lag
[-] Hearing him say “Plasma Beam!” over and over again can get fucking annoying

Doom might be getting the serious Ax man…

dudleys hard punch isnt broken

@ DeathandGrim: If Plasma Beam doesn’t get nerfed up to the final release, that will more than likely be the one move that keeps Doom afloat despite all the other nerfs he got nailed with. In this video [media=youtube]srBXm_F0dRU#t=01m47s"[/media], X-factor Plasma Beam shreds through health like no one’s business. Looks like it’s shaping up to be Ice Beam v2.0.

However, I want to see more of the missile attack! I think I’ve only seen this like once or twice and it was when Doom had someone in his face and was close to dying anyway.

Eh, at this point we already know everyone just going to RUN,RUN,RUN with Doom, pssh how pathetic.

“at this point” we don’t know anything…

I’m more pissed that the Photon Shot and Photon Array has a pushback effect. That was one of my main damage dealers to end combos. And a really good counter to a bad jump ins or advances.

And I’m really pissed about his supremely nerfed defense! Seth can take a punch better than him…They gotta fix that man or I might have to take him out of my line up :frowning:

Oh yea i seen that, and that’s just ungodly amounts of chip I wonder what the direct hit is. But i’m shocked that Molecular shield doesn’t chip nearly as much.

It’s like Plasma beam which was Doom’s worst attack IMO in MVC2 is gonna be beefed up to do the Chip the Molecular shield should do. And Molecular shield might just be a pure defense move now.

Supreme shield chip nerf? Seemed pretty similar from the comparison Nidhoggr linked.

False, at the very least, I’m still gonna fly, fly, fly with Trish.

if you were to drop mvc2 doom into mvc3, he would rape mvc3 doom imho. its pretty sad to see what they are doing with mvc3 doom and a lot of other things, but I’ll just hope for the best I guess.

Doom is interesting in that he’s been nerfed and broken at the same time. Play him like it was MvC2 and you’re screwed. Play him like Iceman/Cable and you rape just about everyone you come across.

good point, but at the same time speed kills.

I believe that is the point of a nerf.

Let’s not forget before the 4 gods raised, Doom was king of the hill.
