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. He additionally plays Larry, making great use of the character's aerials and having relative mastery of his set-ups. Mr. Doom hopes to change the Wichita fighting scene by encouraging local players to choose unique characters and bring flavor to Wichita.
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 montages on youtube. This lead to pulling off particularly exceptional SDI becoming known as "Doom SDI" in the Smash community, and when smashers uploaded their own videos showing off exceptional cases of SDI, the videos would be often titled "[smasher's name]'s SDI sucks" in reference to the video titles of Mr. Doom's SDI montages.
