The Doomsday Discs Oblivion is a 12-speed overstable distance driver. With published flight numbers of 12 / 4 / -1 / 3, it is most often described as suited for power backhand distance, power forehand drives.
Overview
The Doomsday Discs Oblivion is a 12/4/-1/3 overstable distance driver built for high-power throwers who want maximum distance with a dependable finish.[1] It is the stable counterpart to the brand's understable Famine: where the Famine flips and glides, the Oblivion resists turn and "predictably fades into the oblivion," making it a workhorse power driver and forehand option.[1]
Flight characteristics
Flight numbers describe the published behavior of the disc when thrown at its design speed. Real-world flight varies with plastic, weight, age, and thrower power. The community-averaged numbers above reflect crowd-sourced observations from real throws — typically slightly more understable than the manufacturer's published values, which is the most consistent pattern across nearly every commercial mold.
Recommended uses
The Oblivion rewards arm speed. Thrown on a hyzer it holds the angle and fades out hard; thrown flat with power it will hold a brief turn before a strong finish, which makes it a reliable flex-shot and headwind driver.[1] Lower-power players will find the fade overpowering and are better served by the Famine. It ships in Doomsday's premium Retina and Starfield blends.
Best for:
- Power backhand distance
- Power forehand drives
- Headwind drives
- Controlled flex lines
Community notes — how players actually use this disc
Plastics & variants
The Oblivion is available in the following plastic blends from Doomsday Discs:
Retina, Retina Glow, Starfield
Plastic blend significantly affects flight character. Premium plastics like Champion, Z, or C-Line generally fly more overstable when fresh and hold their stability over time. Base plastics like DX, Pro, or Active beat in faster and become more understable workhorses with use.
History
The Oblivion is a more recent addition to the Doomsday Discs distance-driver lineup, a brand known for apocalypse-themed molds and plastics distributed in large part through Infinite Discs.[1][2] Reviewer-aggregated numbers (about 12/4.1/-1/3) match the factory rating, and early user reviews are strongly positive.[1]
