Vulcan vs. Dr. Strange

Good. Now respond to the other part of his post - the part that deals with non-direct ways Strange can win.

I already agreed with Dark that Strange could win with basic knowledge of the character. I don't think he would approach the fight in a way where Vulcan could screw around with his energy, but at the same time, Vulcan also have basic knowledge which leaves me undecided. If Strange approach this fight like he approaches every other fight, imo, he loses a high majority. If he fought in a way to avoid Vulcan energy control, then he could pull a high majority. It all depends on Strange mindset.

Vulcan is much faster though, so he does have the luxury of getting the first attack off and he always go for the kill.

Basic knowledge of the character is granted, per forum rules. And within the reasonable limits of character portrayals, we also assume competent and intelligent use of powers. Ergo, Strange wins.

How is Strange going to prevent Vulcan from ripping the energy from.his body from the inside out? This doesn't include the fact that Vulcan can create illusions for Strange which will screw him up which will leave him opened to be attacked.

Lol at illusions working on any version of Strange. Eye of Agamotto, dude.

So the fight starts. Strange goes intangible, and is emanating no energy. What now? Then he summons an army of Mindless Ones and slows time in a localized area. Still no energy attacks. Then he attempts a mind-rape on the Astral Plane since hes bored. Still no energy. Vulcan's lone chance here is a OHK speedblitz. And for a character who has some speed but isn't known for it, and for a character in Strange who isn't put down quite so easily, it's a long shot.

Lol at attempts to appeal to Vulcan's versatility (energy rips? illusion casting??) as he faces one of the most versatile characters who, apparently, will be blasting energy.

Strange's magic is invoking actual spells that he calls from mystic beings. How does Vulcan drain Strange? Warlock's magic is his ability to channel this so called Quantum magic that flows through him. Strange just invoke spells that come mostly from another plane.

Strange destroys this clown. Strange teleports this clown into one of the hell realms.
