How do you think Tina became the Master of the Hong Kong Sanctum?
There’s nothing concrete in either the comics or the MCU, but I think I have a couple of theories that could answer that:
Tina was a practicing magician in the original comics, so her going to Kamar Taj to study under the Ancient One and other Masters of the Mystic Arts in order to practice focusing and honing in her magical abilities, then going on to tracking down and stopping dark wizards, and with her hard-work and ambition, worked her way up to becoming a Sanctum Master, isn’t much of a stretch.**
There’s also the fact the Masters were friends with Kaecilius at one point. So maybe after Kaecilius left, the Ancient One might have chosen her, Daniel Drumm, Sol Rama b/c of the possibility that he would be less likely to attack them.
While it’s still unknown how she got the Staff of One, I believe that the existence of the Staff itself and its affinity towards Tina (and later on her daughter, Nico) in particular might have played a role in her becoming the Master of the Hong Kong Sanctum, especially given how it’s one of the few mystical relics that made Dormammu tremble in fear.
It could even be combination of all 3! I like how there is no limit to the possibilities, especially when magic is involved.
** (how she juggled this while raising two daughters and be the CEO of a widely successful company is pushing it, but still fits into the realm of possibility seeing as it worked for (1) bruce wayne)
