The trick here is to take out the opponents around the crystal, use their cards, and still have enough power left afterward to take out the crystal afterward. Start with the easiest kill by using a Bolt of Balthakk card on opponent 5.
This will give players a Blessing of the Vishanti card. Use it to buff the other two Bolt of Balthakk cards, making them lethal to a few of the opponents.
Opponent 2 is now vulnerable. Take it out with a Bolt of Balthakk card.
This yields the Agamotto's Gaze card for immediate use, giving Doctor Strange back two of his Bolt of Balthakk cards with increased power. Use it right away.
Note that the Bolt of Balthakk cards now have different amounts of damage. Players will want to use the lowest damage-dealing card that kills the opponent. In this case, use a 17-damage Bolt of Balthakk card on opponent 1.
Use the other 17-damage Bolt of Balthakk card to get rid of opponent 4.
Now use the Agamotto's Gaze card acquired from opponent 4.
Before taking out the last opponent, use the Blessing of the Vishanti card to increase the damage of all cards in the hand.
Only one Bolt of Balthakk card can take out the final opponent. Make sure to use the one that deals 27 damage.
Use the Resonance card to double up the cards in the hand.
Use all the remaining Bolt of Balthakk cards to take out the crystal.
Finally, use the legendary Seven Suns of Cinnibus card and destroy the newly spawned crystal.
Doing this process successfully will unlock the legendary Seven Suns of Cinnibus card to use for Doctor Strange. Edit the deck to add the card and get some practice with it.
