MysticD tier
Introduction
Dormammu is a character in Marvel Contest of Champions. Dormammu's role is Mystic.
On our Marvel Contest of Champions tier list Dormammu is D tier, 263rd of the 297 characters ranked, from where 8 current tier lists put Dormammu.
Is Dormammu good?
Dormammu answers a few big threats well: Power Burn, Drain or Lock counters
Hyperion's repeated Power Gain and his True Damage ignores high Physical Resistance, he's unbothered by
Doctor Strange's Counterspell and can Nullify and Degenerate him once his Signature unlocks, and he stops
Cable's Power Gain into regeneration loop cold.
Electro and
Captain America give him real trouble though, since both avoid triggering the buffs his Soul Bond and Dark Energy build depend on, and
Cyclops (Blue Team) saves his Special bar instead of triggering buffs for the same reason. D tier: a strong answer to specific champions that struggles broadly.

Background
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.
