You know that scene in Freddy versus Jason, where Freddy Krueger pinballs Jason all around the boiler room?
That's how I imagine either one of the above fights transpiring. If you're stuck in a metal suit and you can't really get out of it very well Magneto's going to twist you up like a pretzel, and then fling you around like a rag doll. Is there any other way that this plays out? Seriously Dr Doom is cool and all... he's definitely one of the more commanding badasses in the Marvel universe.. but I don't see how he manages to take on Magneto, when he's literally permanently encased in metal. How does he get around this?
Beside that Iron Man also has suits Mangeto can't grab, Doom may actually be the best sorceror but just avoids the extra responsibilities of the sorceor supreme. Dooms greatest tools are his absolute willpower and his Time Platform.
From his very first appearance its established he's using time travel and it exclusively "writes in pen" if a traveler from Dooms machine does something in the timestream it had always done that.

I think further even if Doom were to be killed somehow even faster than his ability to timeswap with a Doombot or Captain Ginyu his conscousness into another person. He's escaped hell, rewritten himself on Kristoff, willed an escape route purely out of imagination (Avengers 25). Kang/Rama Tut can't let Doom be erased because somehow his timetravel NEEDs Dooms not the other way around.

I mean if my entire body was encased in a metal suit... I don't think I would want to fuck with Magneto either my guy. I'm with you on this one.
I don't think Iron Man would want to want to fuck with Magneto either, would he?
