I really like what you're going for here. I think the range of universe alteration is a bit off in the sense that there's a 1-in-36 chance absolutely nothing happens when the player carefully arranges their ultimate damage combo, but a 2-in-36 chance two effects go off simultaneously (I really, really like including "Deja Vu" twice from a comedy perspective, though).

Honestly, the only effect I don't like in here has to be Nothing. I think that if you're gearing up for a spirit H-bomb to the point that you have to roll on a table for an ultra kill effect, it feels wrong that there's a possibility that "reality just rejects that" and nothing happens.

My favourite effect in here has to be either Fatality or Boiling War. I like any reason for the player to get extra WAR DICE, and I love the image of the world superpowers getting enraged by each other clearly overstepping, because nothing else on Earth is powerful enough to register on the doomsday tracking system.

Thank you for your reply !

What do you think about : "ALT-F4 : The cosmos has reached its limit with your actions: Initiate a universe reset, including a colossal big bang event, and so forth." instead of nothing ? The idea is similar, but the implications are worse !

I also thought about removing allusions to SCP and replace it by CYCLOP and a random table of anomalies in their vault.

If you mean implying that time is cyclical and everything comes right around back to the exact same point and the exact same sequence of actions, I love the universal and spiritual implications and would love to see it.

I also agree that switching to a dedicated in-doc collection of in-universe objects would be better. The SCP collection is huge, having it be a random one from their archives has a very skewed probability of it not being very good.
