Black Adam from the DC Universe opened the door for other superheroes to shine in addition to introducing Teth-Adam, the title anti-hero. The Agent of Order himself, sometimes known as Doctor Fate or Kent Nelson, is among the most prominent of these new arrivals.
Given his character and abilities as a sorcerer, many comic book readers have pondered how well the DCU’s sorcerer might perform in a hypothetical duel with his counterpart, Doctor Strange, from the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Stephen Strange, like Kent Nelson, is a regular person who discovered the realm of magic. In the instance of Kent Nelson, one of the Lords of Order, Nabu, made the enchanted Helmet of Fate for him. Nelson has superhuman strength by donning this helmet, which is comparable to that of godlike entities.
At Kamar-Taj, Strange, however, received instruction from the Ancient One in the Mystic Arts. Given that both fighters display comparable skills, such as illusion magic, clone generation, and barrier creation, a battle between Doctor Strange and Doctor Fate would be a tight call.
Doctor Strange Fought Off Thanos and the Scarlet Witch
In addition to his ability to handle a variety of magical items, like the Cloak of Levitation and the Time Stone through the Eye of Agamotto, Stephen Strange is a master at conjuring Eldritch power that could make Thanos perspire.
Strange was able to conceal a small amount of Dark Dimension Magic inside the artifact after losing the Time Stone, which he used to reveal Chaos Magic-created creatures. Because of his extensive knowledge of the Mystic Arts, he was able to fight an evil version of himself that was in control of the Darkhold and even momentarily match the Scarlet Witch.
Advanced reflexes were displayed by Doctor Fate during his confrontation with Teth-Adam. For example, he blocked a lightning shot from the latter and then used the illusion of Kahndaq to divert Teth-Adam’s attention.
The only member of the Justice Society of America who could match Teth-Adam’s strength and even briefly disable him was Fate. Later on in his battle with the demonic Sabbac, the Agent of Order managed to astral project Teth-Adam from his underwater prison to awaken him while trapping Sabbac in a loop while he battled legions of magical clones.
Doctor Fate Faced Off Against Black Adam and Sabbac
Doctor Strange is seen using a greater variety of spells than Doctor Fate because he has more film appearances than his DC counterpart. But as the well-known adage goes, sometimes less is more. Strange is still a human, even though his power set is more varied.
He can compete with godlike creatures thanks to his talents, but he can still be knocked out, as seen by his numerous confrontations across the MCU. In the meantime, it is shown that Doctor Fate is faster at casting spells and has better physical prowess than Strange.
Fate might just teleport back, but Strange could try to use portals or trap her in the Mirror Dimension. Speaking of teleportation, it appears that Strange’s portal magic is slower than Fate’s.
Although Strange’s cloning spell may be cited by certain MCU fans, Fate is also capable of creating clones powerful enough to hold Black Adam and Sabbac in check. Strange’s best option is to use the Cloak of Levitation to take off the helmet and the Crimson Bands of Cyttorak to restrain Fate. The Cloak of Destiny, Doctor Fate’s magic cloak, is comparable to Strange’s cloak in certain ways.
Who is More Powerful: Doctor Fate vs. Doctor Strange?
Despite being a formidable sorcerer, Doctor Strange lacks the means to defeat Doctor Fate. Because of his extended lifespan, Fate has more experience than Strange, even though he has only been in one movie.
Beings as powerful as Sabbac and Black Adam might be held under his powers. He was able to repel Sabbac in the latter battle, not only by astral projecting himself to awaken Teth-Adam, but also by maintaining a force barrier powerful enough to keep the remaining JSA out.
One may argue that Strange fought Thanos well, but unlike Fate, Strange was entirely committed to defeating Thanos.
Furthermore, Fate’s capacity to foresee the future—something Strange hasn’t been able to accomplish up to this point—is what really sets him apart from his Marvel counterpart. Given his superior experience, magical abilities, and fighting skills, Doctor Fate ought to defeat Doctor Strange.
