Has anybody else's Doctor Strange pre-order been sitting in limbo? The tracking for mine has said "Order Processed: Ready for UPS" for a week now.

Mine shipped, then went to the post office for the ‘last mile’. But of course it’s a holiday weekend, so now it’s going to be ~5 days later than it would have been 😕 oh well

Did you get yours today? Mine is still "ready for UPS".

Well, one of mine is still "ready for UPS". I didn't even look at the second tracking I had and that one showed up today. (The second one is for my parents.)

Just got mine today and he is amazing! My favorite hero, by far. Played against basic Rhino just to get a feel for his style (standard procedure when I get a new hero) and it was a breeze. Tried expert Klaw and won pretty handily too. He's a lot of fun.

It's the first deck in which I've felt the aspect cards don't really matter, though, and are really just resources for paying for his main cards (which are awesome).

Nope, they just notified me that it was sent to my address on file (moved and forwarded mail) and then claimed that the address was wrong and did a return to sender...(!!!!))

Yeah, just got notification that it arrived back in Circle Pines, MN. Tried calling customer service and got a message that they’re closed now and their business hours are M-F 9am-5pm (call was at 1:25pm EST on Friday).

I guess I’ll wait and see if they reply to my email.

I think there’s something... strange going on with these packs. I have one tracking number with an arrival of July 4th and another tracking number for the same pack that says the post office has not yet received the pack.

The tracking never changed for the two that I got. Both said "Ready for UPS" until the days they showed up in my mailbox. But the tracking for my LOTR JiME expansion is working just fine. *shrug*

Yeah, same here with Shadowed Paths. Hopefully this means their tracking should work relatively consistently now.

His invocation cards look powerful. Is Strange all about just using those badboys? I opened his deck and got him sleeved, but no games yet!

Yes, I’d say maximising the impact of his Innvocations is the best way to play Strange.

Can some one confirm Crimson Bands of Cyttorak is not an attack and works while stunned?

Correct.
