Especially given the fact that a random encounter for Nova is never as random as it would be for most given that he has extensive files on just about every hero, villain and alien race in the mu. And the Worldmind to really phuck with Doom's tech.
Worldmind isn't doing anything to Doom's suit.

Older my ass. You're still in your 20s right lol? Then again, (not sure if this is your situation) working a job that you hate can make you feel a lot older then you actually are lol.

I used to work at a job where I'd make deliveries to the Ed Hardy corporate office in Culver City. MAAAAAN the talent that I used to see in that place! I hated that job, but I loved that stop lol.

Nova wins a random encounter but Doom wins with prep.
The worldmind would expose all of Doom's prep.
WM: "Richard, he's trying to lure you into that spot in the room. There's a power siphoning device set to go off as soon as you touch it".
Nova: Seriously? Doom, you filthy little scheming sewer rat you.

Why not?It's not like he'd be overloaded.
Whether he could handle it or not isn't even the issue. A mouse could handle it. It goes where it chooses to go. Getting it by force would be his issue and that's not happening.

Doom's mind/body could handle Worldmind.Also, lol and WM seeing through Doom's prep.
Come on, dmills.
Dawg, the WN could converse with you about the history of classical music, search every computer database on Earth and calculate a course around a super massive black hole 1000 parsecs away all at the same time while seeing through Doom's bullshyte lol.

Srsly.
Yeah, the problem is that in order for Doom to lose, you would have to basically ignore the attributes that make Doom the character that he is.
It is kind of like saying that Nova cannot use World Mind, or Flight.
The character, Doctor Doom, has enough experience and intelligence and existing prep to be ready for everything on Nova's list.

I'm not sure that I'm getting at what you mean. It seems to me that you're essentially saying that "Doom wins because he's Doom". And while I wholeheartedly agree that he's a badass, ultimately that's not how we debate here.
To your second point, Flight etc are attributes of Nova's power-set, but they aren't what makes Nova Nova. Hell even the WM doesn't make make or break Nova, as Rider has proven even it wrong on a few occasions. What makes Rich tick is his tactical mind, his never say die attitude and his propensity to command respect. Even from his enemies.
I think this sequence says it all for me

Now that's respect.
All that said, my position is simply that the match (random encounter, .5 km apart, genera knowledge etc) favors Nova imo. I just don't think he'd beat Rider at his own game, namely, a blasting contest, quick cqb etc.
