The Ultimate Dormammu Thread

Hey, long time Dormammu player here. I’m looking for a bit of advice.

Once Ultimate came out, I’ve been trying out all the new characters, and I still can’t figure out which partner is best for Dormammu. So far my team has stayed at Dormammu, Spencer and someone random. Lately it’s Dorm/Nemesis/Spencer, but I’m not sure if this is the way to go.

Could anyone help me figure out who a good 3rd character for Dorm and Spencer team would be?

depends on your playstyle really, but since you’re putting him on point, a standard answer would be “get someone with a beam assist”. makes for easy cross-ups and if you can’t hit-confirm an assist, at least it gives you time to charge at least once. i currently use Doom with Dorm and i switch between plasma beam and rocks assist, depending on my 3rd character.

The 3rd character should definitely be someone with a beam assist. Spencer is great with Doom Plasma Beam backing him up.

It’s been a while, guys. Gonna see if I can cap some of the tech posted here that doesn’t have a video form. I want everything to have a video reference. :tup:

Thanks in advance.

Hope you ca start out with this, Its a Dormammu fly unfly combo that X Samurai X invented.

cr.L cr.H S > sj j.MMH fly > j.LMH unfly > upwards air dash j.MHS

if you can get a reading on the meter build & damage.

again thanks.

This combo is not worth it considering the difficulty and the damage, it barely works and you only get about 689,000 damage when it does. Also you can’t start it off from an air attack. Better off doing the fly combo.

I’ve tried that combo several times since it was first posted. I’ve never been able to connect the aduf j.MHS after unfly. I couldn’t even connect a aduf j.L. I’ll keep trying and get back to you.

Does hawkeye’s assist (9 low priority projectile points) have what it takes to backup dorm? It’s so much faster than doom’s plasma assist but it’s not a beam so idk

I’m using Dorm/Hawkeye and good god, it’s good AND fast. The assist is faster than Magneto’s Disruptor too. The only weakness with Greyhound is it can be crouched under by certain characters.

should i drop my doom for hawkeye as well? i haven’t played hawkeye so i’ll have to start from scratch but i find that i usually drop my doom combos online. how good is hawkeye as anchor (xfc aside because everyone is good with lvl3 xfc)? because i’ll probably be using him strictly as assist/anchor.

Hawkeye is good for an anchor. Just don’t expect him to take out an entire team. His rushdown is ok since all he can do is tick throws and a left/right mixup with Trick Manuever H. Make sure he has meter though.

I’m testing out Doom and Dorm really good together I attend to use the plasma beam for teleport mixups, and OTG with the flame carpet. Trying to find setups for Trish round harvest with Dorm.

I tried looking around the threads before posting this, but couldn’t find it. Sorry if it exists buried somewhere: Anyone know the sequence(s) for the post TAC combos? FChamp does them often, they somehow involve a couple air Dark Holes. And I guess by extension, how they differ depending on TAC direction?

I coudlve posted this in the combo thread but: a. I had just posted and didnt want to double or edit. b. This info would be good for the guide anyway. Very nice work on this, Karst :slight_smile:

Thank Rayan Hunter for the new Dormammu TAC

Not to mention shows off Purification assist goodness with DS.

I normally read more than I post but you call that new? I’ve literally been doing that TAC combo since early vanilla. I’ve also noticed you’ve been talking about xS A M U R A Ix a lot, well he’s changed his name to Jon Slayton now. He’s one of the local players in my scene and I can vouch that the unfly combo does work but honestly isn’t worth it in comparison to his jump loop combos off of dark matter. Honestly the combo isn’t hard and I’m surprised you haven’t been able to replicate it, there isn’t exactly any trick to it.

Yeah, I call it new because it the 1st time I seen it.

& I gave up on the fly unfly combo in favor of the dark matter combo.

Not to mention the purification assist stuff is pretty boss, which got me to use it over dark hole, to help out Magnus & DS.

Any idea the transcript for the TAC sequence? And also any idea if it works the same for all 3 tag types?

Looks like :m:, :h:, Fly, :l:, :h:,:l: Dark Hole , :m:, :h:, :l: Dark Hole ,:s:.

Did anyone listen to Viscant’s views on Dormammu on the latest WakeUpSRK podcast? I don’t know if I’m high on his opinion about spamming Dark Matter + teleport (unless it’s not fullscreen), but I love him mentioning the 2C1D Liberation combined with Doom assists causing as much trouble as Dorm/beam crossup and tridash j.H/j.S crossups.

Dormammu = JUST DO IT!

hi, Haz.Angelic here from Arizona. Confirmed this combo works. Could not get it consistantly when using :atk::atk: to dash, (was getting hand charge) but when manually doing :uf::uf: or :u::u: I could get it 2/5 attempts, this is just in the 5 minutes since I started trying to do this combo.

The combo I did successfully was

cr. :l::m::h::s: > j. :m::m::h: XX fly > j:l::m::h: XX unfly > manual dash up forward > j:m::h::s:

edit::

uploaded video with my phone, bad quality but clearly demonstrates the combo above.
Also, this works mid screen too.
