"Know this! The hand of Doom is the hand of fate, and today it holds the life of Reed Richards in its palm. So long as that is true no other soul, living or dead, will break the iron grip of Doom!"
—Doctor Doom[src]

Doctor Doom is a Mystic Champion. Being a Mystic Champion, he has a Class Bonus against Cosmic Champions, but is weak to Science Champions.

Bio[]

Leaving his tribe in Latveria, Victor Von Doom moved to the United States to study at the Empire State University where he combined sorcery and technology to create fantastic inventions. Disregarding the warnings of fellow classmate Reed Richards, one of his inventions malfunctioned resulting in an explosion that severely damaged his face. Expelled after the incident, Victor began traveling the world eventually collapsing exhausted, on a Tibetan mountainside where he was rescued by a clan of monks. Mastering their discipline and forging himself a suit of armor, Victor took on the mantle Doctor Doom, his mission to serve revenge on those he holds responsible for his accident.

Mechanics[]

Doctor Doom uses a combination of technology and sorcery to constantly push the battle in his favor. Doom’s sorcery abilities focus on controlling the fight and Nullifying Buffs. Doom’s technology abilities focus on raw damage and Debuffs. Combining both together allows Doom to decimate his opponent with little risk of repercussions.

Abilities[]

Passive

  • Doom uses a mix of electricity and sorcery in his Light and Medium Attacks causing them to deal Energy Damage instead of Physical.

Titanium Armor

  • Doom’s resilient armor protects him, granting immunity to Armor Break, Armor Shatter and Shock effects.

Basic Attacks

  • If the Opponent isn’t already Shocked, Medium Attacks inflict a Shock Debuff, dealing X Energy Damage over 2 second(s).
Tier Shock Damage

TierStarTierStarTierStarTierStarTierStar 297,8
TierStarTierStarTierStarTierStarTierStarTierStar 508.1
  • While charging a Heavy Attack, if the Opponent is within striking distance and suffering from Shock, their Shock effects are removed and replaced with a Passive Stun for 0.6 seconds. This can’t trigger during the Opponent’s Special Attacks.
  • Landing a Heavy Attack has a 100% chance to Stagger the Opponent for 10 seconds. When a Staggered Opponent gains a Buff, all Buffs triggered at the same time are Nullified.

Aura of Haazareth - Passive

  • The Aura of Haazareth can’t trigger while Doom is suffering from a Slow or Petrify Debuff and is paused during his Special Attacks.
  • While active, Special Attack 1 and 2 are Unblockable and grant no Power.
  • Light Attacks grant no Power and steal 3% of the Opponent’s current Power, gaining 200% of the Power stolen.
  • Contact with the Opponent has a 30% chance to Nullify up to 1 Buff.
  • Doom becomes Unstoppable and Stun Immune against the last hit of incoming Special 1, Special 2, and Heavy Attacks. Additionally, damage received from this hit can't exceed 5% of the Opponent's Attack.

Signature Ability[]

Indomitable Will - Passive

  • Whenever Doom Nullifies a Power Gain Buff, he receives one for himself, granting 20% of his max Power over 3 seconds.
  • If the Opponent isn’t already Shocked whenever Doom Nullifies any Buff, they have a X% chance to be inflicted with a Shock Debuff, dealing X Energy Damage over 6 seconds.

Dev Notes: If Doom is fighting a champion who frequently gains Buffs such as Hyperion, Vision (Aarkus) or Medusa, players can strategically align Doom’s Stagger effects to instantly Nullify these Buffs as they activate, which will in turn inflict a shock from Doom’s Signature Ability and allow him to immediately chain a Heavy into another Stagger.

Special Attacks[]

Special 1 - Invocation of Sorcery
Channeling his knowledge of sorcery, Doom blasts his opponent with a mystical beam, burning their energy and absorbing it for himself.

  • The Aura of Haazareth is activated for 6 seconds, this will not trigger if the Aura was already active.
  • The first hit of this Attack steals 10% of each Full Power Bar the Opponent has and Doom gains 200% of the Power stolen, capping at a maximum of 2 Bars of Power.
  • The amount of Power stolen is increased by a flat +10% for each full Power Bar the Opponent has.
  • Each beam hit of this attack has a 100% chance to Nullify up to 1 Buff.

Dev Notes: As long as Dr. Doom isn’t suffering from Slow or Petrify, this attack will always be Unblockable, meaning if the opponent is playing defensively Doom can just throw this attack into their block and laugh.

Special 2 - Cosmic Energy Absorption
Syphoning cosmic energy from the Battlerealm, Doom supercharges his armor capacitors, unleashing a destructive blast onto his opponent.

  • Each beam hit has a 100% chance to inflict an Incinerate Debuff, each dealing X Energy Damage over 5 seconds.
Tier Incinerate Damage
TierStarTierStar 312.2

TierStarTierStarTierStarTierStar 2080.4
TierStarTierStarTierStarTierStarTierStar 4169.2
TierStarTierStarTierStarTierStarTierStarTierStar 7113.4

Dev Notes: This ability is strictly for damage purposes. If the Opponent has a lot of Power, using the Special 1 can steal enough Power to instantly chain into a Special 2 which will be Unblockable and grant no Power since the Aura of Haazareth will be active. Meaning a bunch of damage inflicted without giving the Opponent a ton of Power

Special 3 - Hassenstadt Tour
Teleporting the opponent to Castle Doom, Doom combines both sorcery and technology to devastate them with an incredible blast.

  • 100% chance to inflict a Passive Stun for 2 seconds.
  • The Aura of Haazareth is activated for 12 seconds and Doom gains a Fury Buff granting X Attack Rating for the duration of the Aura, max stacks 2. This will always refresh at maximum duration whether or not the Aura was already active.

TierStarTierStarTierStarTierStarTierStar 3871.4
TierStarTierStarTierStarTierStarTierStarTierStar 6605.3

Dev Notes: The stun from this attack is just long enough for Doom to immediately initiate his next combo. If this is a combo of Light Attacks, Doom can steal enough Power to instantly chain into another Special 1 and steal even more Power!

Strengths and Weaknesses[]

Strengths[]

  • Shock Immunity and resistant to Armor break and Armor Shatter
    • Doom is immune to the effects of Shock making him great in any matchup where Shocks are inevitable. Additionally his durable titanium armor protects him from Armor Break and Armor Shatter effects.
  • Ability to Tank Special Attack hits
    • Using the Aura of Haazareth Doom significantly reduces the damage and effects from the final hit of the Opponent’s Special or Heavy Attack. This allows him in certain matchups to intentionally eat a hit that is hard to dodge and immediately counter attack with a combo of his own.
  • Control Opponent Buffs
    • Doom’s stagger effects inflicted by landing a Heavy Attack are exceptional for keeping Opponent’s Buffs cleared at all times, and if that isn’t enough, his Special 1 is great for clearing Buffs as well.
  • Special Attack Frenzy!
    • Doom’s ability to always gain more Power for himself than he stole from the Opponent, allows him to build Power very rapidly. Especially when fighting champions who gain Power quickly such as Hyperion. The more Power the Opponent has, the more Doom will steal for himself, allowing him to thrive in high-Power situations.

Weaknesses[]

  • Slow / Petrify
    • Doom needs his Aura of Haazareth to be active in order to utilize his sorcery abilities, this Aura can’t activate while he’s suffering from Slow or Petrify, significantly limiting his sorcery abilities.
  • Shock or Incinerate immune Opponents
    • Doom’s ability to chain a combo into a Heavy attack is reliant on the Opponent being shocked. Additionally, Doom’s damage comes from Incinerate Debuffs, Opponents who are immune to either of these effects will reduce his viability.
  • Lack of Buffs to Nullify
    • If the Opponent has no Buffs to Nullify, Doom is unable to make use of his signature ability or the Power gained from Mystic Dispersion.

Recommended Masteries[]

  • Mystic Dispersion
    • Doom has many ways to Nullify Buffs from the Opponent, allowing him to gain a bunch of additional Power from their expiry.
  • Despair
    • Doom’s has the ability to frequently shock the Opponent, allowing him to maintain the effects of Despair on the Opponent throughout a large portion of the fight.
  • Perfect Block
    • Doom has no way to regenerate or self-sustain, the Perfect Block Mastery allows skilled players to prevent chip damage by performing Well-Timed blocks, thus keeping Doom in the battle much longer!
