That... doesn't work? Mystical Studies is an Alter-Ego card. You can play MotMA (a Hero card), then flip to AE to use Mystical Studies to grab that MotMA again, but you can't flip back to hero to play it that turn.

What puts Strange over the top is MotMA, in fact I think it's abusive. You can do 14 damage and stun with MotMA + CBoC and 5 resources. Or draw 6 cards with Winds of Watoomb. Or even more of both if you have multiple MotMAs or draw in to them.
What makes MotMA abusive is that Strange doesn't need to Exhaust to play it. You could potentially get 3 MotMAs off in one turn. I think it should either Exhaust him, or be limited to one per round.
MotMA is effectively any of the Invocations at cost+2 (i.e. 1 + MotMA itself); so it + CBoC is 6 resources total. Which, 6 for 14 + stun, I mean, it's fine, but the MotMA casting is strictly worse than the equivalents from other heroes (Ms. Marvel can do 5+stun for 3, using an aspect card(!), and thanks to her bouncing, can do that every single turn.)

Thor's villain phase power gets more consistent not necessarily better with more encounter cards
And remove 3 threat?

It’s weird how often people forget this. It’s 1 card from hand for 3 threat removal and the ‘cost’ of a minion (plus the mill searching for it). That the cost has synergy with Thor is just gravy.
The Mill effect is the biggest downside, but there’s definitely an element of risk reward to it, but there should be - the effect is great - replace this card and draw a card and remove 3 threat. If you top card a low health minion it’s Awesome...

And keep in mind the cost of removing 3 threat is usually 2 cost plus 1 card if we compare it to Surveillance Team and For Justice. So for the cost of 1 card and a minion, you draw 2 cards and get the effect of a 3 cost justice card.

Haha yes people should probably read the whole card before saying what it "essentially reads."
I love it how the topic is called 'thor is terrible', when most of it is filled with people saying how awesome Thor is, or just talking about Dr. Strange. 😂
