Critique my Doomsday

[Eldriken]

First and foremost, this is not me fishing for props.

If you have played me regularly or somewhat regularly, I'd like to know what you think of my Doomsday. Whether it's good, bad or a combination of both, lay it on me.

I'm wanting to see if other people notice what I'm doing right or wrong that I'm not picking up on. I'm asking for criticism to help me improve as a player.

Don't hold back, but at the same time, please keep it civil. No need to be an ass about anything and wind up derailing the thread.

Once again, this is not me fishing for props. I just want to know what people think.

Your Doomsday is pretty decent

From what you and I have played, do you have any comments on how I approach the MU?

 

[MidTierHarley]

You make "good reads" with mb shoulder

I would delete this thread. Your opening yourself up for trolls. It doesnt matter what others think of it. They are either going to float your ego or sink your pride.
However having said that, your dd is very good man. If you really want to know were you stand show these people at your next tournament, dont ask them. Its a what have you done for me lately community

Do you think I'm going to bother with any troll responses? I know who I have and haven't played enough to judge how I play.

I'm mainly looking for insight as to what I do wrong in certain MUs more than anything.

I like threads like this. Asking the community about your pros and cons of your gamely is apart of how a community is supposed to be. Don't delete this thread.

Thanks. I should have put it there to begin with.

Agreed. It's a good way to find out what you're doing right or wrong.

I would say based off of our games you MB shoulder to much and dont really respect the Jokers parry. Now I know that since theres virtually nothing you really need to respect on Joker, especially online, just kept in mind that if I have level 2 or 3 trait, your bodysplash is useless as I can beat it out really easily with any jump attack and I can troll the hell out of your trait safely with trait jumps. Also you should air snatch more. Of course don't get reckless with it but it definitely is a great tool in the Joker MU. Still hate DAT online ES

@Eldriken
its pretty good. Alot of d1 ES and grab mixes it up

Yeah, I definitely try to incorporate Air Snatch into my plan against Joker players, but I have a tendency to make the wrong read, lol. You're right about me not respecting your trait. I really should work on that.

 

[The Great One]

It's been a while and I don't know if this was because of the matchup but you seemed to jump a bit more than the average doomsday players I've played

Yeah, I do. I really love body splash. I should really try to stop doing it so much outside of certain setups.

 

[SonicBoomBrad]

It's impossible to critique a Doomsday. As a Doomsday player you need to be able to read your opponent to pick your options and space them out with normals. It's fundamentals. The character is super straight forward. There isn't a cookie cutter way to go about getting better with him. You shouldn't ever have to jump forward with Doomsday. If you're abusing too much of any one thing you should probably broaden your approach.

 

[Vengeance135]

Come on @Eldriken what do you need to critique? You use NEWBSDAY
had to get a troll comment in.

 

[RM NoBrows]

You're an earthshake-ing ass

Lol honestly thoough, you're my MU experience with DD and I'd say you're a good player. From all the doomsdays I've seen, I'd put you right behind @Noobe and @AK SaltFace

Thanks, but I'm not right behind them at all. I've got a bit to go before that becomes true.

 

[Deleted member 28105]

I'd give your Doomsday a solid salt/10. Keep up the good work.

 

[Shaazzyam]

Your DD isn't good enough to win Online Evo Championships.

Yeah, I said it.

[Decay]

We do need to play again soon, although I hate playing online doomsday, I would suffer through it because... well, I like you bro!!

 

[Espio]

I like your Doomsday, maybe some more sweeps mixed in perhaps? You seem good at timing your oki to stuff wake ups, reversing wake ups etc with a large portion of different characters and you adapt fairly well in sets. I'd need to play you a lot more to give more substantive feedback though.
