So things he does while in prep does not count ie going astral form etc? 🤪

Even so. He can totally shield himself before at the very least. Or to make himself untouchable, or any number of other things.

Maybe people aren't aware of the meaning of prep.

Neither side receives any notable prep time before the starting bell unless the thread starter specifies it. Neither side may take any offensive or defensive actions before the starting bell. Planning is allowed and powers that are automatic or 'always on' can be up, but actions such as setting up forcefields, taking flight, or consciously activating powers is not. For example, Batman cannot shove together an 'anti-Avengers ray' before the fight.
Originally posted by Bentleystrange can still gather any items he has access to within the specified amount of prep time. he just can't use or activate said items/spells before the battle starts. it's a perfectly reasonible rule.
That's an ultra weird prep rule because when people talk about prep they always seem to overrule it.So Strange cannot cast any spell, get any artifact nor power up anything during prep... He can only think about the implications of the other character and research? Or is that allowed?
Well, there are the automatic defenses:

Or the fact that killing Dr. Strange's physical body its not particularly useful:

I mean, this guy can come back from the death as if he was just bfr to a random dimension.
But you are right, maybe I should look around to see if Strange can do anything against a fast guy 😖hifty:

it clearly says, "reacting at the speed of light the eye automatically defends dr. strange from harm."
what is "the speed of light" to a being much faster than flash? not much at all, really. zoom could tag strange an abundence of times before the eye reacted.
Originally posted by Bentleywhat does 'killing' strange have to do with anything? it is perfectly within zoom's ability to simply beat the ever loving shit out of him to gain the win.

Uh, guys.
The prep rule that was quoted was out of context. It was talking about "default" matches where there is no prep, saying that Bats couldn't make his ray gun or whatever because there's not prep unless specified by the thread starter.
Prep is specified for this match. That quote is moot in regards to this match. I should know; I wrote it. And Strange could enter in astral form.
😉
