Artisan Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 Why is Dr. Strange, Sorcer Supreme on the list? How does that not break the alias rule? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thoras Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 Are you asking about the affiliation list? Having both characters on the list gives a person the option of which version of that character they would like to include in their roster as an affiliated option.

LowTierSteve Posted September 20, 2021 Share Posted September 20, 2021 I have a follow-up question/clarification, which may ask and answer what OP was intending to ask: is it correct that a leader from that affiliation is not required to use the affiliation? And is it also correct that essentially, the only benefit to using an affiliation without a leader is that you can still use Team Tactic cards that require that affiliation? I think what Artisan was getting at is, OG Dr Strange is the only leader, so due to the alias rule, you could never choose the SS version of him. If the answers to my questions above are “yes”, then you could still bring the SS version - you would just be playing Defenders without a leader (unless/until another Defenders character is designated as an alternate leader in a future update).

Artisan Posted September 22, 2021 Author Share Posted September 22, 2021 Actually I was trying to point out how is it possible for me for bring a defenders roster to a game that has BOTH versions of Strange. What is the point of giving SS Strange the affiliation when he shouldn't even be able to be in the same roster much less be on the same side of the board in the same game? PS: I never even thought about using SS Strange in place of OG Strange. I guess someone out there may someday do it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is not currently possible, you can only include one or the other in your roster at the moment. The point of both having the affiliation is as mentioned in my first post, you can pick which version you’d like to have access to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
