Wand of Watoomb is much more difficult to land, and while Astral Incursion can allow you to cast a spell, it adds an additional 1 in 6 roll to do so. Your bread and butter are going to be Mystic Bolts which requires a small or large straight. The catch is, you have to roll specific powers in order to actually cast the spells. ![]() Spells like Rings of Raggadorr can help you combo up effects by playing spells from your discard pile. Spells can range from simple damage additions with Flames of Faltine, making an attack undefendable with Chains of Krakkan, to healing with Mists of Morpheus. Spell cards make Doctor Strange a flexible character. Since multiple spells can be prepared at a time, you have plenty of versatility about which ones to cast and when.
