His Ike in Brawl is known for effectively utilizing his jabbing techniques and combos, as well as recovering quite well. Mr. Doom's signature kill is an Aether spike, a method of KOing he's very proud of pulling off. In Smash 4, Mr. Doom displays solid skill with Yoshi, playing and beating many other players in the Wichita area.

Mr. Doom is most notable, however, for his extraordinary SDI capabilities in Brawl, described by players as being TAS-like, examples of which were shown in several montages on YouTube.
