The Superhero Database Classification number, or SHDB Class, is a number that represents the overall 'power' of a character. All traits of a character are used for calculating the Classification.
What it DOESN'T mean
This doesn't mean that a higher class would always beat a lower class character. But the bigger the difference in Class is, the more obvious it is who'll win in a fight.
How is this calculated
( INT^1.3 + (STR*0.5 )^2 + (SPE*0.5)^2 + DUR^1.6 + (POW + (SPS*SPL))^2 + COM^1.8 ) ^ TIER
Super Power Score and Level
Every Super Power has a score (SPS) that is used to calculate the Class. Each Super Power also has 3 levels (SPL). The level is set when connecting that Super Power to a character. The level determines the final score, of the Super Power, being used in the calculation.
Bouth are very powerful with an incredible versatility, they are among the most powerful superheroes in the Marvel and Dc universe.
To suggest who is more powerful and also be objective is difficult they are obviously very evenly matched.
Perhaps the only diffrence between them is about limitations, who is more powerful if they lose all the artifacts of power ?
How powerful is Nelson without the helmet of Nabu and Strange without the eye of agamotto ?
I belive Doctor Strange will retain more power than Doctor Fate and if this is the diffrence between them it may also count.
Like this one
He can faught with eternity
He defeated Galactus
And Hector Hall, who is weaker than Kent Nelson, defeated and imprisoned Mordru.
The Spectre has called him nearly as powerful as himself.
While at half power, he manhandles the Legion of superheroes, JLA and JSA single-handedly
Owns Thunderbolt, a 5-D imp with a single blast
Owns infinite man, who has infinite power
Absorbs the magic of all of universe 247
Could eat the entire speed force
And also he’s the main villain of Dr Fate and we all know how crazy he is.
I guess i dont think i need to explain what nexus of all realities

Classic Doctor strange is too much for fate
Or like this
Or
LT>>>Spectre
and umar both are tier 8 and dormammu stalemates eternity also strange can summon
zom he can defeat many high multiversal characters
Doctor Fate versus Doctor Strange (end of Doctor Strange Movie) - Easily Doctor Fate, he's not sorcerer supreme yet but clearly building his power
First magic works differently in the two universes but lets not forget who we're dealing with. Doctor Strange is a mortal, human channeling extra dimensional energies as "magic". Doctor Fate is usually represented as a lord of Order working through a mortal on this plane. The level of power he has access to would, in theory, be far more than any mortal.
I'd say it's 50.1/49.9 with the comics versions, with Doctor Strange slightly more powerful. This would be close.
And strange doesn't have the time stone in the comics for those idiots who doesn't know a thing about comics.
Doctor strange - 120
Doctor fate - 32
