People are like, "FUCK DOOMSDAY!" and they don't want him in the game as part of the main roster. Okay, that's cool. Let him be DLC that is stupid as fuck, never gets necessary balance changes, etc. I will see y'all on the flip side crying more tears than you would have had he been a part of the base roster. =P
wasnt afriad of him in IGAU and wont be in INJ2 if he's dlc. venom was punishable by GL for almost 40% 1 bar plus mingun so i bopped any brainless DD players free :) i just rather have someone interesting as DLC

Why are you talking about regular Venom? Everyone in the game gets to punish that on block. >_> No one got to punish MB Venom on block, however.

If I don't have meter, there will be no df3 motion coming from me. :p

every game needs that beginner-friendly, somewhat abusable character. 5 hit combos and body splashes all day!
Seriously though, all those free wins Doomsday mains got in IGAU wouldn't happen without that potato netcode facilitating it. D1-earthshaker was highly blockable... OFFLINE.

That or remake him. Earthshaker is kinda a bs move. But just that I can get behind, he's got some crazy cross up shenanigans and it is terrifying to bet he won't wake up.

Jacqui, Takeda, Kung Jin and Kenshi had pretty friggen important roles in the story. Did you even play MKX?
What was Jackies purpouse outside of being an addition to the SF team?
Yes I played it (terrible, terrible story) and in terms of the storys main point theese characters were just there to say a few pointless lines.
Enough derailing, nothing against Doomsday but his design in Injustice was the most potato I've ever seen.

Doomsday was possibly the most brain dead character in the history of fighting games. high level play was literally mb charge them into a corner and d1 earth shake or raw earth shake. we dont need him
you are forgetting mk9 kenshi, but agreed Dumbsday was super easy mode.

Believe in the hop kick
He needs to come back. MB eartshaker needs to give a full combo. He also needs Jax MK9 elbow and ground pound with EX elbow draining meter so you can't break the corner infinite. He also needs a safe 6-hit string to generate meter so he will have 3 bars every time if he pushes you into the corner. He also needs a command grab into a meaty/another command grab mix-up. This way he can be a solid mid tier character in a game with much more oppressive BS and not get picked by Sonic Fox to auto-win all tournaments.

Doomsday would definitely be a good addition to the roster but with some adjustments (same treatment as the other returning characters).

Perhaps some suggested changes:

- Earthshaker can be an overhead / mid or mid / low which would allow him to still hit sweeps or overheads.

- Reduced hitbox on his (MB) shoulder charge; this change would allow you to make a good read in neutral and avoid it with a jump which causes Doomsday to waste meter and not gain his carry / plus frames.

This would make him a little less "potato".

As for positives, give him some strings / launchers that convert into better, practical combos. Seeing a (rare) Doomsday combo in IGAU was actually pretty hype.
