Specials

qcf.A = Plasma Beam: Dooms plasma beam from MvC2 and the same beam as his assist. Is usable in the air

qcb.A = Photon Shot: Dooms photon shot from MvC2. Is usable in the air

srk.A = Molecular Shield: Same move as his assist

Hypers

qcf.2A = Photon Array: Doom fires a barrage of photon shots at the enemy. Usable in the air.
Level 1 Hyper

srk.2A = Sphere Flame: Doom gathers energy in his hand and fires it straight up. If it connects, the enemy is juggled up to the top of the screen. It it misses, after it goes offscreen it rains down electricity
Level 1 Hyper

??? = Electric Cage: Doom sits in a chair, and the enemy is trapped in a case and doom watches them get electrocuted. Level 3 Hyper

Strategy
Doom looks to be a decent all around character. Most people will probably use him as mostly an assist, since Molecular Shield is just AWESOME at this point in the game and what we know about it. His Plasma Beam Assist has crazy fast stat-up and is nigh-invulnerable. this is all subject to change of course.

COMBOS!
coming soon…

His B assist is Hidden Missle.

yeah, its the same as his… back+C command normal, but I think he always launches the max number of missiles.

Goddammit…

Sweet, Victor finally gets an update!

KFCJocelot is always on point. Not like that other guy…

Ok, this thread is now officially awesome >> ALL HAIL KFCJoc!

Good job, Nick.

And lol. I knew Jocelot would give in to the side of evil. Even if he’s still unwilling to fully do it.

Fixed. Also this thread is about Doom, not KFC and Jocelot and the mixtures of the two, come on guys!

Also, gotta say a combo and contributor section is very nice, that way I don’t have to reply to every message with “thanks for new info to add.” Has any one got a chance to try the Foot Dive loop at any of the events, Fight club, SCR? In the original vid the player attempted to end the loop with Air Photon Array but missed… maybe it would be possible to link if he did it faster/ less footdives?

Lol. Don’t count on it, bro.

anyone know the name or input for his level 3?

Wouldn’t his Level 3 still be called…Electric Cage? It looks similar with the enemy being shocked an all, right?

Ah, a Doom thread with the glory the Doctor deserves!

I always thought the level 3 was called Electric Cage as well. One thing’s for sure though… it puts the MvC2 Electric Cage to complete shame.

Really loving this thread though! Can’t wait until it’s really fleshed out.

Not to nitpick or anything, but you can’t press AA to activate a super… :stuck_out_tongue:

AB is more clear IMO

feel free to nitpick, its what this is here for, to build the ultimate guide for the good doctor!

Yeah please do that since we are using ABC. AA was used with LMH in mind.

lol. why isnt this shit a no brainer…

changed. about his level 3…are all level 3 inputs the same? hcf.ABC?

I personally think 2A is more clear. If for instance a combo requires A followed by B it would be displayed as AB the way people have been notating it. 2A distinctly references any 2 Attack buttons simultaneously and would not be confused with A followed by B.

Edit: It appears me and Nick agreed on something for once lol. :lovin:
