Doom stats, abilities and strategy
Can prevent a single enemy from casting spells or healing in any way
One way or another, Doom shuts down his enemies. Devouring creeps to claim the various skills they had in life, he can place a lingering silence upon a foe's spells and items with his ultimate as he torches his foes.

Strategy
Bonus gold from Devour is granted at the end of the Devour cycle and you will lose it if you die. Avoid dying when a creep is being Devoured for bonus gold.
Once you get Blink Dagger, try to make use of it immediately before your opponents see it in your inventory. It will usually result in a free kill off your ultimate.
Usually you want to devour Centaur Conqueror and obtain War Stomp to disable opponents after blinking on top of them as another disable given to your hero.
Avoid showing yourself at the start of the fight and wait for your Doom priority target to show.
Avoid fighting while Doom is on cooldown. Notify your teammates about its cooldown and push out lanes or play defensively.
Check opponents' inventories for Linken's Spheres and Lotus Orbs. Be careful not to drop Doom on those as it will be blocked and wasted.
Look to use Devour as frequently as possible on lane creeps or neutral creeps to keep getting gold and XP.
Counter Strategy
Doom is a weak laner at lower levels. Pressure him early on.
The Doom spell has long cooldown. Look to play aggressively when it is down.
Linken's Sphere, status resistance items and Lotus Orb are good at dealing with The Doom spell.
Acquiring Aegis for your core is a good way of dealing with The Doom spell. Look to kill Roshan.
Until Dooms level 25 mute talent, you can still use your own items to kite or escape while Doomed. You can use Teleport when Doomed.
Lore
He that burns and is not consumed, devours and is never sated, kills and is beyond all judgment--Lucifer brings doom to all who would stand against him. Bearing away souls on the tip of a fiery sword, he is the Fallen One, a once-favored general from the realm behind the light, cast out for the sin of defiance: he would not kneel.
Six times his name was tolled from the great bell of Vashundol. Six and sixty times his wings were branded, until only smoking stumps remained. Without wings, he slipped loose from the tethers that bound him within the light and he fell screaming to earth. A crater in the desert, Paradise lost. Now he attacks without mercy, without motive, the only living being able to move freely between the seven dark dominions. Lashed by inescapable needs, twisted by unimaginable talents, Doom carries his own hell with him wherever he goes. Defiant to the last. Eventually, the world will belong to Doom.
