Dark Melee complements Super Reflexes very well, a heal and endurance recovery power is good for a set that has neither.

Just taking a quick look, the build looks alright. However, I would definitely not take Elude since you're softcapped and you could drop Maneuvers also since you're softcapped without it, it just becomes a waste of endurance unless you were just using it to slot a LotG. I don't think you'll get much benefit of going over the softcap since you'll have capped DDR and all the -tohit stacking from your attacks and Darkest Night. Also, I don't have a DM character, but most people try to work in both damage and heal into Siphon Life, you might want to look into that.

I love Dark Melee, and have it on my main, a DM/Invul, as well as a few wild experiment builds like DM/FA, DM/DA, etc. I have never tried SR though.

Good Luck, and welcome to the joys of SMASH!!!
