Bio

Dormammu was born to a race of powerful beings made of pure magical energy known as the Faltine, and has only one true desire: power. This desire drove him from his home world and brought him to the Dark Dimension, where he now rules and draws even greater power from the worship of his subjects. Now with the power of so many heroes concentrated in the Contest, Dormammu has come as one of the greatest mystical threats in the universe, undoubtedly to gain that power for himself.

Hints

Strong Match-Ups added by admin 0 0
  • Hyperion
    • A lot of Hyperion’s power comes from his repeated Power Gains, and Dormammu has several ways to deal with them. Also, the True Damage from both Soul Bond and Soul Leech allows him to bypass Hyperion’s high resistances.
  • Doctor Strange
    • Ahh the good Doctor, Dormammu’s long time nemesis. Now, this isn’t a super hard counter, but Dormammu is well equipped for this fight. He doesn’t rely on Buffs limiting the effect of Counterspell. He has a Nullify of his own to take down Doctor Strange’s period buffs, and once his Signature is unlocked he has a chance to Degenerate Doctor Strange each time he switches Buffs.
  • Cable
    • When stepping into the ring with Cable, Dormammu’s going to want to play the shutdown game. Cable can really get rolling when he triggers Power Gains, which in turn gives him more chances to trigger Regenerations, and more Power Gains. Dormammu has a couple of options to deal with this, either Nullifying them directly, or Power Locking and Draining him to prevent them having a chance to trigger.
Weak Match-Ups added by admin 0 0
  • Electro
    • Electro is a tough contender for Dormammu, especially once he has access to his Signature Ability. Electro is happy to just sit on a full Power Bar for extra Critical Hits, never giving Dormammu a chance to build his Dark Energy, and hold Class Advantage for even more damage.
  • Captain America
    • Captain America is a great counter to Dormammu. He doesn’t have any Buffs to trigger, avoiding Soul Leech. Weakness provides a window in which Dormammu really doesn’t want to trigger the Soul Bond, and Class Advantage offsets Cap’s lower damage output.
  • Cyclops ( Blue Team and New Xavier School)
    • Cyclops has big Special Damage at his disposal, and doesn’t mind saving up for his Special 3, especially if he can get his combo up for the additional damage. Again, by saving up his Special Bar he can deny Dormammu much of his Dark Energy charge, and no buffs to trigger keep him safe from Soul Leech.

Abilities

Signature ability

Soul Leech
Passive
Dormammu uses his opponent's powers as a link to reach deep within their soul. Each time a buff expires on his opponent Dormammu has up to a X% chance to Degenerate them for X direct damage, over X seconds. The chance of this ability triggering increases the longer it's been since it was last triggered.

Abilities

Soul Bond
Heavy Attacks
If there is no Soul Bond on the target, place one on it.
While a Soul Bond is active each Dark Energy Charge you gain also charges the Soul Bond, up to 100.
Detonate an active Soul Bond dealing up to X Direct Damage, per Soul Bond charge.
Dark Energy
Dark Energy Charge is gained each time your opponent's Power level goes down, up to 100.
When the Charge reaches 100 it will be consumed by the next attack that has an Imbued effect triggering the Imbued effect in addition to any standard effects.
Gain X Dark Energy Charge for each Buff Nullified.
Bleed Immunity
Dormammu lacks blood and is therefore immune to Bleed effects.
Nullify
Nullify is an ability that can remove opponent's beneficial effects.
Special Attack 1:
100% Chance to Nullify 1 positive status effect from your opponent.
Imbued: Nullify all positive status effects from your opponent.
Poison Immunity
As a being of pure mystical energy, Dormammu, is immune to all known poisons of the Battlerealm.
Power Drain
Power Drain takes away the opponent's Power. Unlike Power Burn, this is in addition to any damage dealt, meaning the opponent will still take some damage from the attack even if blocking.
Finish a Combo with a Medium Attack:
The target doesn't gain Power from this Hit.
Depletes up to X% of the target's max Power.
Imbued: Causes Direct Damage equal to X of the Power Drained from the opponent by this attack.
Power Lock
Power Lock prevents the opponent from gaining Power, taking away their ability to use any further Special Attacks for a certain amount of time.
Special Attack 2:
100% chance to Power Lock, severing the target's flow of Power for 9 seconds.
Imbued: Drain 20% of the target’s Max Power per hit.

Special attacks

1: Soul Fire

A wave of power from the Dark Dimension burns through his opponent’s very soul, burning out any sources of power it may find.
Nullify:

Imbued: Nullify all positive status effects from your opponent.

2: Dimensional Blasts

Dormammu opens rifts to the Dark Dimension, drawing forth bolts of raw power.
Power Lock:
100% chance to Power Lock, severing the target's flow of Power for 9 seconds.
Imbued: Drain 20% of the target’s Max Power per hit.

3: Lord of the Dark Dimension

Dormammu brings his opponent into the Dark Dimension for a demonstration of his true potential.
Gain a Dimensional Link buff causing Dormammu to continually gain Dark Energy for X seconds.
