Good partners for Dormammu?

I’m now rolling with Wesker(Samurai Edge)/Dormammu(Dark Hole)/Tron(Gustaff Fire) and it works quite nicely.
Wesker builds hyper really fast with Tron and Dorm’s assist to extend my combo. Also with Dorm’s assist I can combo wesker’s lv3 if I want to but not worth it since I should keep my bars for Dorm. Tron’s gustaff fire is a great assist for dorm as it can extend his normal combo but most important it’s a good GTFO move.

All I need is to learn how to play Tron now.

I’ve been using Dormammu (haven’t found a suitable assist yet)/Dr. Doom (Molecular Shield)/C. Viper(Burn Kick), recently.

It felt weird having Dormammu on point at first, but I’ve really become fond of mixing both defensive and offensive play with him. The hard-to-blockable setups and damage this team gets can be pretty good. Dormammu and Dr. Doom can really make it nightmare for anyone at mid-screen. Though, I feel it can be difficult to control your opponent’s full screen options once they’ve started.

I haven’t figured out how to carry my opponent to the wall if my back is near the corner. But once I do, I should be able to land anywhere between 730k - 1m damage from anywhere on the screen.

I tried Tron for the flame assist but initial impressions were that she is ass on point.

I really feel Dormammu works best in the 2nd spot after a battery character with the aid of preferably a GTFO me assist and some sort of projectile assist to fill in some of the gaps with his ranged pressure. Zero followed by Dormammu is killer, so much meter to burn. I just wish Zero’s DP assist was better.

Heya fellow Dorm users
Currently my team is Sent(Alpha drones)/Hulk(gamma wave)/Dormammu(purification)
I’m looking to replace the robot, so I figured that i most likely need a good beam/horizontal zoning assist so i can move Hulk to point. Would love some input on what would be useful but still have good DHC potential (Poor Doom)

Im right now finding some success with Dorm(Dark Hole), Tron(Gustave Fire) and Phoenix (TK Overdrive). Still not sure if this team really works well yet. I use Dorm on point with the help of Tron’s assist. Also working on another Team of Dorm(dark hole), Chris(gunfire) and Dante(Jam Session)

Why TK Overdrive? You already have Gustaf Fire, and Phoenix’s other assists all get significant boosts during Dark Phoenix form. I think you will potentially have trouble against keepaway with that setup.

Hey Guys What do you think of putting Dormammu / Hulk / Ironman in the same team?
i think if would work pretty good thanks to ironmans beam and hulks AA assist :slight_smile: any advice? Darkshine maybe have a thinking :smiley:

What will you do against a Arther/Deadpool/Magneto/trish/randomzoningcharacter 186? How will you handle them?

I honestly think hulk is useless in this game. I mean he’s strong, yes, but without an assist how is he supposed to actually hit anyone? Neither ironman nor Dorm has an assist that can help him get in… IMO. I fight and destroy a couple of hulks regularly using only zoning. he doeesn’t touch me. Can’t get close. But my team is designed to keep people out…

Also, that team may be average to above average in keeping people off of you. If you fight a good X-23 or Wolverine you may run into some issues. Both hulk and Iron man’s assists are easliy punished.

I just… fail to see the focus of that team. Hulk can get people off of you his mini head crush, but using Dorm on point with those assists seems counter productive. you have a tank, and 2 meter users… no battery.

The team may be better with Iron Man on point, but you’d have to use him as a battery. Then Hulk with Dorm (purification) as Anchor. That order is much more balanced, and the opponents fear of hulk and purification will help. Although this team will DIE if hulk gets zoned out…

Thanks for the reply mossad!

I have reconsidered the team and Discussed it with a friend and I will probably try:

Taskmaster (H.Shot Front) / Dormammu (Black Hole) / Iron Man ( Unibeam)

Use Taskmaster first to build meter and if not necessary spend so much
Dormammu as meter user
Ironman as last spot tank and deadly damage. And I think this team will have better synergy

Or do you have and thoughts about it? :stuck_out_tongue:

I want to build a team around Dorm but I can’t find a team I like. I like putting Dorm out first, and having Akuma last. Akuma last is good because he’s scary with XF3 and has a good GTFO assist. I’m thinking of going with Magneto second as a back-up to Dorm.

What do you guys think of that team: Dorm/Mag/Akuma?

Imo it’s better Mag/Dorm/Akuma. As previously said Dorm on point isn’t the best choice, he burns a lot of meter without building it.

When you have Dorm on the ground the Tatsu assist hit confirms for dark hole - chaotic flame.
With dark hole assist you can start Mag’s loop.

Dormammu, Sentinel, Black Heart - Done… Wait…:sad:

Seriously though, i found this really cheesy thing with Doom and Dorm in the corner. Doom as the active character and dorm with purification assist - do any ground combo and use the dorm assist, do doom hidden missiles (not full speed) call assist, hidden missle, assist, HM, assist, ect. When done correctly the HM shoot up directly under your opponent and the assist comes out to fill the gap between the next batch of HM. If timed right pretty annoying and very hard to escape on hit or block. Chip damage is extremely low though.

yea its something I am working on, originally I was using her TK Shot and it seemed ok. I really just used overdrive to help extend tron’s combos when I have her on point. But thanks for the advice Ill have to practice more with it.

Reading some posts i think people agree that Trish is a good Dormy partner and who do you think is a good char to complete the trio? coz i really like Trish gameplay and Dormy looks quite fun, i don’t have much experience coz i just played this game once at a friend’s house(i’m gonna buy a ps3 in May)…

mystic ray assist is a godsend for dormammu.

flame carpet + mystic ray + purifications = how the fuck are u gonna move?

For a pure keep away team Doom can be a good char too.

I will keep dreaming with you sir.

Teleports, unfortunately.

This may not sound helpful, but my advice is just to get the game and practice, or watch a lot of videos. A ton of characters fit as a good third with that team.

Guess i have to try chars i like, and i didn’t saw you in gfaqs since they banned you :stuck_out_tongue:

My current team is Wesker(OTG)/Dorm(DH)/Doom(HM).

Wesker on point since he builds meter rather quickly and he can do decent damage without spending said meter. Dorm and Doom’s assists help Wesker get in.
Dorm is probably my best character right now. Wesker’s assist helps extend a lot of Dorm’s combos for easy damage.
Doom is the weakest person on my team. I can do the majority of his long foot dive loops but I still need to work on getting in with him, and my zoning isn’t that great either.
