Doctor Strange: Ranking Every Character From Worst To Best
12. The Masters
In all honesty, the Masters of the three Sanctums are pretty much as useful as the Sorcerors who work under them. They're billed as being the worthiest of mages, having ascended to their positions presumably by some sort of similar achievement or special status to Strange when he becomes the Master of New York.
Only Drumm ever really gets anything to do - and that's mostly just dying valiantly in the service of The Ancient One - and none of them seem to even remotely suggest that they're worthy of their stations.
Look, it's obvious that there has to be some trade off on some of the lesser characters, but in populating the world with so many sorcerors, rather than just leaving it to Mordo and Strange, all they did was make it more obvious that there wasn't a great deal for any of them to actually do.
