@@alexmedjay3025 Dumbeldore said himself that Voldemort was the strongest Dark wizard of all time... Dont get me wrong i feel like Grindelward is the strongest of the two, but yeah...
@@bofallhihaj4745 He was because of the horocruxes that kept him alive like the ring does with Sauron. But you can tell that Morgoth is stronger. Same case with Grindelwald
@The Indian Guy Grindelward didnt do that because his objective was to make mages conquer muggles, to do it so he had to try to convince as much people as possible. Making horocruxes would be a waste because look how it turned Voldemort, wich his greatest feat is surviving 5 minutes against Dumbledore. Besides, we cant tell that the best wizard is Voldy because he didnt got close to Grind in power even with the Sauco. Yes, he was unkillable and a great menace to Hogwarts, but Grindelwald did all what he did beign a menace to the whole magic and almost the muggle world without magic relics keeping him alive.
Harry himself is also very powerful, he was only 17 when he defeated Voldemort one thing for all. He killed a Basilisk at 12 years old, saved the Philosopher stone at 11 years old, competed in a deadly tournament at 14, fought with deatheaters at 15, went Horcrux hunting as the most desired criminal at 17 as well!
Harry is great, but he doesn't typically win through amazing spellcasting. I think the title of one of the greatest wizards means you have to be a very great spellcaster.
Is a great difference havubg everyone having your back to do any shit you need to do, and being so incredibly BADASS that you can handle everything on your own, that's the difference between Harry and almost any wizard on this list
We still need to see Harrys development after the movies. Didn't he become head of the aurors? I think he is an excellent spell caster and he is fighting intelligent.
Hagrid is the most powerful. He is capable of transfiguring humans with a broken wand that he isn't even in contact with, and cast all of his spells without speech. He took on a team of armed wizards cursing him when he was completely unarmed, and would have won if he actually tried. He has a hidden intelligence only Dumbledore knows of, he allows the information Harry needs to succeed to seemly slip. He has it all planned out ahead of time. Dumbledore trusts him with his life because he knows how truly strong and talented Hagrid is.
Snape was on the list (a Slytherin) Flitwick was on the list (a Ravenclaw) McGonagall was on the list (a Gryffindor) rip Hufflepuff _Proffesor Sprout has left the chat_
Thalmor Sorcerer boi Im a Hufflepuff. Im pretty sure the main traits are loyal, trustworthy and hardworking. That’s not “nerd”. Thats Ravenclaw. Hufflepuffs are known to be the kind house to most people (even though no house is considered “kind”) and Ravenclaw: Creativity, *wit* and literally *prizes learning* Tell me which house has the most nerds?
McGonagall didn’t actually defeat the 2 death eaters, it was actually Snape that reflected the spells onto the 2 death eaters and stole their wands then left..
@@EatYourVegs I think you're a kind of wrong. Wasn't it Snapes intention to go Voldemort so he can help Harry in sort strange way. In they book is mentioned that he already tried to disarm or even kill deatheaters, so I think he has left on purpose. The others only helped him. But I can be wrong...
Are we forgetting that Flitwick defeated Dolohov in combat? Flitwick was said to be a dueling master. Also, I feel that McGonagall deserves to be higher on the list.
they weren't particularly powerful in the books, as Harry himself said, a lot of what he did was pure luck (although it may have also been related to the prophecy but he had no way of knowing that) as for Ron and Hermione, sure they probably became pretty accomplished later in life (especially Hermione), but from what we know in Canon, they really don't belong on the list.
I hope they make the duel between Dumbledore and grindlwald very epic and long (like a 15 minutes scene or something ) in the next fantastic beasts movies and I always wished to see more of voldemort powers in duels
I totaly agree with the fact that Grindelwald is more powerful than Voldemort. He is more like a political idealist. He did not create Horcruxes because he knew how dezastrous this was to ones soul and he chose to be the smart one by keeping his soul intact. He also could, unlike Voldemort, understand the power of love. Making a Horcrux is an act of cowardice; that shows you are afraid of death.
He didn't create a horcrux because he didn't know what a horcrux is. Neither did Dumbledore. According to Rowling, only one wizard in history was able to create a horcrux before Voldemort- Herpo the Foul, a Greek wizard who lived in the 7th century.
Then you’ve clearly not read the books. Voldemort is literally described as the most powerful dark wizard of all time. Dumbledore himself says it. Grindelwald was a better leader and better person, but Voldemort was the more powerful and skilled wizard.
@@SarastistheSerpent When it comes to the Dark Arts, Voldemort is surely better than Grindelwald, but I think when it comes to love, Grindelwald exceeds Voldemort in knowledge. As we have seen, love always wins.
Otto von Bismark not just the dark arts, Voldemort was a prodigy in all forms of magic. And Rowling said that Grindelwald was a sociopath who had no ability to understand love.
While the 7/10 most powerful wizards are indeed very talented, they are nothing when it comes to the top 3. Voldemort, Grindelwald and Dumbledore are Titans compared to the other 7.
How about reading a book and understand the true power of Severus Snape? He fought Minerva, with slightly better skills just because he didn't want her hurt. And when two more teachers came, he fought 3 of them until he escaped. And yes, his devotion to dark arts were insane. But he stopped because of Lily's death.
Snape chose his fate when he called Lily a mudblood. He was overly obsessive of her and cared nothing for a child dying do long as Lily survived. He hanged out with his death eater friends. Just with his interactions with Lily and he's a bad person.
Snape and that’s done. He kept Voldemort out of his mind to the extent he didn’t give anything away even when he was dying. Voldemort ultimately kills him because he’s trying to find out who has the wand, nothing more. Also, Snape kept the curse at bay that was killing Dumbledore. Finally, he is the only wizard shown to create his own fatal curse, but also to be able to save someone from it.
None of that shows he is the most powerful wizard. Dumbledore, grindelwald and voldemort are still far far above his league in pretty much every aspect of magic, excluding maybe potions and occlumency.
@@SouthpawsRule217 so the fact Voldemort made him his most trusted agent?? That Dumbledore trusted him as the only one who could be a double agent?? I think you’ve missed out on a lot of details. Don’t just watch the films.
@@AngelicusImmortus he was in the agent role because of his intellect and occlumency. He isnt even close to the likes of dumbledore or voldemort in terms of power, especially considering both have one shotted snape before. Hell snape almost lost to mcgonagall in about 10 seconds, while voldemort wrecked mcgonagall, kingsley and slughorn at once and dumbledore beat a prime, elder wand wielding grindelwald in a duel. Not even close really, its an honour for snape to even be mentioned in the same sentence with dumbledore and voldemort.
Not in the books- Luna and Harry both defeat the Carrows(although McGonagall casts the Imperius Curse on Amycus as he is waking up from being unconscious thanks to Harry's Cruciatus curse) and McGonagall ensures that they don't escape from Ravenclaw Tower by tying them up and trapping them in a floating net in the Ravenclaw common room.
@gamelvr1 i agree,maybe killing your parents is bad,but really driving your parents nuts,beyond the ability to live a normal life,is like to steal a life from themselves,making them kinda zombies.i meant by that this:cause a debilitating physical harm is easy conpared to cause such mental harm.
@Tom Cross Calm down you Bellatrix husband! You sound ridiculous saying all that like if you knew her or something. The bitch was killed by Ginnys mother so easily, guess she was not that stronger at the end.
if u look closely in the battle between Mcgonagall and Snape in the great hall, you notice its actually the karrows casting spells at mcgonagall and snape casting spells to block the karrows spells from hitting mcgonagall. this proves the resoect snape has for mcgonagall
My list is as follows:- 1.Dumbledore 2.Gellert Grindelwald 3.Tom Riddle 4.Merlin 5.Godric Gryffindor(greatest duelist of his time) 6.Salazar Slytherin (being the expert of dark arts is not easy) 7.Severus Snape ( He was able to deceive the dark lord!) 8.Minerva McGonagall 9.Nicolas Flamel(creating the philosophers stone is no joke) 10.Mad eye moody( most powerful auror of all time!)
Grindelwald is more powerful then Voldemort grindelwald at the height of his power would destroy Voldemort at the height of his power and grindelwald could feel remorse and and Voldemort couldn’t
I feel like whether or not Voldemort or Gellert would be on top depends on your definition of power. In terms of raw magical power, I feel that Voldemort is better. But in terms having power beyond the wand, Gellert is much better. Voldemort was only about to take UK for a year, while Gellert was able to take over Europe for a longer period of time. So yeah, I wouldn't consider your answer to be wrong if this is what your definition is.
I personally think that u should’ve also added Salazar Slytherin, Merlin, Godric Gryffindor, Aberforth Dumbledore, Nicolas Flamel and Harry. Yes, Harry got help in the most of the things that he has done and yes there’s some people who is stronger than him. But killing a basilisk, defending yourself from hundreds of dementors with a patronus in that age, dueling Voldemort like 4 times (even though it was Priori Incantatem he still achieved to move that round-shaped thing to Voldemort). He might have gotten help but he achieved to use his talents in the right way with his courage. He did things that even adult wizard could not do in such a young age. He achieved to keep his love straight. Sometimes everthing is not power but I think some of us failed to understand that. Harry is one of the strongest wizards in the history. I don’t think any of the wizards in Harry’s age would survive if they were put in the same room as Voldemort with nothing but a wand and no help. Don’t be bloody silly
Hermione is amazing with logic and has an immense array of spells at her disposal, but she isn't particularity "powerful" even if she is magically gifted.
Yes, she is much more powerful than witches and wizards with twice her experience who were top generals in Voldemorts army (and he only chose the most powerful) and who have murdered countless aurors...ok...
Voldemort is more powerful than Grindelwald. Voldemort fought a Dumbledore to a stalemate while Dumbledore had the elder wand. Grindelwald had the elder wand and still lost to Dumbledore.
@Xavier Voldemort was only powerful in terms of RAW power... he wasn't as close to the skill level grindelwald had... also, when grindelwald and dumbledore duelled, the elder wand betrayed grindelwald, and took away its power as it sensed dumbledore being a bit more powerful... and yet, that duel became the most legendary duel of all time... dumbledore won ONLY because he was a bit more skillful than grindelwald... in the duel at the ministry, between no nose and dumbledore, the elder wand did the same thing... it sensed the raw power in voldemort and stopped aiding dumbledore... cuz, its a fact that voldemort was the strongest in terms of raw power... and YET, dumbledore used the wand and duelled with voldemort as if voldy was nothing but a kid... at that point dumbledore won the worthiness of elder wand AGAIN... also, to anyone saying voldemort brought dumbledore to a stalemate, its completely false... Voldemort was afraid of dumbledore and at a point, voldy just decided to flee and possess harry... also, dumbledore wasn't trying to kill voldemort at all... he was just delaying Voldy
That is about dumbledore wasnt at his prime when duelling voldemort. Dumbledore was at his prime when duelling grindelwald. Some sources say the duel lasted for 3 hours
@@ComradeCody3349 Grindelwald was only more skillful due to the fact that he had Dumbledore to hone his skills and vice versa. Voldemort literally had no one else to hone his skills with ever because he was never around anyone close to his level long enough after he left Hogwarts. Even as powerful as Snape was, he paled in comparison to Voldemort in raw talent. I mean, the guy could fly. That alone should tell you how powerful he really was. Iron sharpens iron and that is what Dumbledore and Grindelwald were to each other.
@@cps6949 hahaha some sources say lol. It’s all written by jk Rowling. Also in the books, dumbledore was in control of the Voldemort duel. He also had the elder wand against Voldemort, where as grindlewalt had it against him
Barty Crouch Jr. Overpowered and flawlessly imitated Moody for a year, fooling even Dumbledore, who knew Moody well. Manipulated the Goblet of Fire under everyone's noses with what seemed like very little effort, threw off the Imperius curse and his talent and academic achievements are repeated by several others throughout book four. He was also actually a really good teacher. The only reason he was caught was because Voldemort screwed up and let Harry escape.
of course he was. he was better at occlumency than voldemort was, amazing at potions, very strong in the dark arts, he made sectumsempra and several other curses and he was very smart. its just too bad we barely get to see him fight while not holding back.
What about barty crouch jr? He tricked besides Dumbledore a lot of other very powerful wizards. He had full control about madeye and his father and managed to help Harry Potter to Win the tri wizard tournement, which seemed nearly impossible. And he was the Main factor why Voldemort returned.
In terms of lifting the imperious curse, that was mainly down to Voldemort helping him (even though he was barely alive). He tricked everyone at Hogwarts mainly through good acting rather than powerful magic. Yes he did a great job at getting Harry to win the Tri WIzard Cup, although that was through inside information and one imperious curse on Krum.
Agreed. Barty Crouch Jr. should have been on this list in the place of Slughorn, who wasn't *that* particularly powerful. Crouch was excellent at transfiguration, potions, the Dark Arts, and a slew of other abilities. He was powerful enough to convince the people around him, including Albus Dumbledore, that he was Alastor Moody. Hell, he could even use "silent" magic, as when he subjected Draco Malfoy to the Imperius Curse without actually uttering it.
If you think she's top three then you're just delusional. There's not a chance in hell that she's more powerful than Voldemort, Grindelwald, or Dumbledore.
Bellatrix is a very powerfull witch, she is at least the only known detheater who could self defense against a spell casted by Dumbledore in a fight. So she deserves the fith place at all. But I agree that Minerva should be placed higher than place nine like place 6 or something.
you are right. Minerva should be on the second place. bellatrix,voldemort and moody and snape is nothing in front of her. she gets snape out of hogwart and two other men in seconds
The good guy is strong by heart and grows stronger by power the better way. Voldemort is strong by killing torturing and by his followers who follow him because they fear him.
Libra Potato a coward?? Bellatrix literally defeated anyone who challenged her with the exception of molly and Harry, (we will also exclude Hermione because of the circumstances) Bellatrix was literally the most powerful witch up until her death.
Sirius Black bursted out of Azkaban, was an animagi and defeated several death eaters on his own. Because of the Azkaban toll on him and hiding behind curtains make him weak but I would rate him just a shy less than Snape in the list.
I think James and Sirius were a tad better than Snape seeing as they managed to bully him, sure it was never one on one but they did it so casually for 7 years.
I have to insist it took all the marauders to bully Snape, Snape only focused on knowledge and skill while Sirius and James excelled all over sports, girls, mischief etc etc. And lastly Snape managed to be a double agent between two formidable wizards of all time.
Not so fast, James and Sirius were also considered the brightest students at school, so they excelled at learning and all those other things you mentioned. Also Peter is useless, and Lupin was probably almost never involved since he was always played the role of the peacemaker.
I am just recounting all of the Snape abilities: 1.Healed Malfoy on spot,better than Pomfrey. 2.Contained Voldemort curse and gave Dumbeldore a year to live 3.Was a better potioneer than the text book author. 4.Concoted variety of potions(Veritaserum,Wolfsbane etc) 5.Was a master duelist, even Rowling admitted that it took both Sirius and James just to match his skill. 6.Again- Double agent for Voldemort and became his right hand man. 7.Defeated Flitwick and McGonagall in deulling. You want more.
I already know he was an amazing wizard, but I don't buy that he was better than James or Sirius. James died early and Sirius spent 13 years in Azkaban, if possible they would've gone on to do incredible things as well. Also I'm sure James and Sirius would have been capable of doing points 1, 2, 4 and 7. Do you have the link to where JK Rowling said that? Or a quote? Because i've never heard her say anything of the sort. It took two of them to *casually overpower* Snape, not *match* him and so if it was a one on one duel (James v Snape or Sirius V Snape) then in that case it would be more of a struggle for both parties and it could go either way but my money's on James or Sirius.
Vulnera Sanentur is the counter curse for Sectumsempra. And besides, the healing spell only worked on bad cuts and not a knife piercing someones heart.
Arian Jashari he could kill voldemort b/c he is the true owner of the most powerful wand in the world ( i forget the name of it ) and voldemort was using that wand to fight Harry , the wand cannot harm its true owner , that is why voldemort lost. He survived the first death bc of the power of love of his mother not his power , second b/c only the soul of voldemort inside him was dead , that ‘s how it works , not bc of his power .
I agree with Jhon, Harry is a great wizard, but his skills are not so much developed compared to the others from this list (also he’s young, maybe as an adult he develop his abilities). I would say he’s not the greatest but he may be the bravest :)
McGonagall > Snape. JKR said that McGonagall would have defeated Snape had their fight in book/part 7 gone on - which is impressive considering that she was well past her prime. And Voldemort > Grindelwald. Again, according to JKR's canon.
asim faazal that's not the point we know that but what he's saying is that in a prolonged dual to the death Minerva would eventually come out on top and jkr said this so sorry he's right
To everyone wondering why Harry's not included, please take a look at this. Harry is a plot device. Yes, he's brave, has immense willpower and does grow into a powerful wizard and Auror, but putting him on the same level as the guys in this video while he's in school is just ridiculous. He's just not that developed yet There are a few instances where we can judge his actual combat prowess compared to adult wizards End of Half-Blood Prince, when Snape is escaping and Harry catches up to him. He has his ass completely handed to him, and we know Snape wasn't trying to harm him, just get him off their back. At the same time, Harry was going all out and still achieved nothing. When duelling Bellatrix(book 5, end) and she kept laughing and negating his attacks. Only when he gathers all his rage does he manage to actually hit her with a Crucio curse, and it just knocks her down and causes a scream, after whch she escapes. It achieves nowhere close to the full effect it's supposed to. When he calls Lupin a coward and they both go for their wands(book 7 I think? ) Lupin has the wand out and knocks Harry down before his hand even reaches his pocket, and is they gone before Harry manages to stand up and come to his senses. Even Mundungus Fletcher, who is generally looked down upon and presented as a coward and petty criminal, manages to pull out his wand, hex Harry, knock him back and Apparate that time when Harry catches him stealing and tries to manhandle him. We can equivalate this to the real world. Harry is 17. A 17 year old can be very tough/well trained and bloody the noses of some adults in a fight. However that 17 y/o will never be able to beat a grown man that is equally tough and just as much a a born fighter, but is also much stronger, more skilled, more experienced and with more training. It's the same thing. Harry has potential and is pretty good for his age. He may be able to handle some nameless run of the mill Death Eaters every now and then, but we can't put him on par in terms of combat ability with renowned and powerful combatants that have been duelling people before Harry was born, and certain long before he even suspected wizards exist. He's just not there yet.
snape is a special caseyes he was verrryyyyy gifted in school but he also further porved himself after school as he grew to his full power which harry didn't get the chance to do in the books no one is saying harry couldn't makeit on the list if he was shown many years later as he has developed more they are saying from the point the books ended he wasn't at a point yet where he was more powerful then these 10
harry did not defeat Voldemort because he was more powerful so no and who says he could have killed Bellatrix she was a very powerful witch actually the last of voldemorts followers left alive and fighting
Voldemort is more powerful than Grindlewald. The proof is when Dumbledore recalls tom riddle's past saying "Did I know I met the most powerful dark wizard of all time"
Creating 6 horcruxes is enough to become 'the most powerful DARK WIZARD of all time'. But Voldemort's magical prowess was nothing compared to Grindelwald and Dumbledore. He uses only one spell in a duel - avada kedavra. To be a dark wizard, you just have to do horrible things, and whoever does the most horrible things is the most powerful.
harry= why am not in it Draco= My father will hear about this ok but honestly whi isnt harry in this. he preformed a full patronus at the age of 13 and he killed voldemort
@@luans.40 have you seen the movie or read all the books. he killed voldemort. the hogwarts war??? neville killed the snake and then he killed voldemort
Maria Rizwan Voldemort died because the elder wand realized that he belongs the Harry. Then Voldemort’s spell was thrown at himself. Harry didn’t use any great power. It was Dumbledore‘s plan and Luck
@@luans.40 nope when Neville killed the snake Tom became mortal again also if you watch goblet of fire Harry overpowered him there too showing his abilities and riddle didn’t have to wand at that time explain that
@@kingston6008 Harry just had some kinda power over Voldemort, that's why Voldemort failed to kill him...nd harry just had some kinda gifts nd magic was just so natural to him, he could perfom alot of things easily...but when he came to skill he was not that skilled compare to wizard mentioned...proof to that is when he tried to fight snape
chelseatheblues1905 since Harry threw away the Elder Wand, which answered to him at the moment, you’re right. Slughorn was the most powerful wizard alive.
Joël Röben I didn’t say anything that contradicts your statement that Minerva was the most powerful at the end. But we still can’t take away the contributing factor that Harry threw away the wand.
Joël Röben he wouldn’t have been as powerful as Dumbledore, but he would have been at least more powerful than Draco would have been and as powerful as Voldemort was when he weilded it. Harry & Draco both became masters of the Elder Wand, and Harry is generally superior to Draco. Let’s say Harry was a level 3 wizard, and Draco was level 2. Now let’s assume being the master of the wand adds 2 levels to the natural power of the wizard. Harry would have been a level 5 wizard, and Draco a level 4. With Dumbledore, let’s assume he was naturally a level 5 wizard. When he became a master of the wand, he became level 7. In Voldemort’s case, his power wasn’t increased because he wasn’t the master of it when he used it. Let’s say he was naturally a level 5 wizard, and stayed that way when he acquired the wand. It’s just math.
I haven’t watched the entire vid yet so don’t judge but I’m pretty sure the four witches and wizards that created the four hogwart houses aren’t on here They are the most powerful wizards of time (Edit:) thanks for the like!! :D And highlight
J.K. Rowling is the most powerful witch ever. She’s the overseer of the world of magic. She was probably the first person to ever utilize magic so she’s the one who created Witchcraft and Wizardry.
I know that we only see Aberforth Dumbledore a little but judging by that massive Patronus Charm during the Battle of Hogwarts, I think he deserves a mention here.
From the HP books, before fantastic beasts. 1. Merlin 2. Dumbledore 3. Voldemort 4. Grindelwald 5. Godric Gryfindor 6. Salazar Slytherin 7. Rowena Rawenclaw 8. Helga Hufflepuff 9. Nicholas Flamel 10. Severus Snape/Minerva McGonagall/Amelia Bones/Filius Flitwick (One of those. They are pretty close matched.)
He was still bad, he bullied students and made them petrified of him "just because he lost his loved one" Sirious lost, james, lily and went to azkaban and didnt blame harry, Lupin lost James, Lily, sirious and pettigrew in ONE night and didnt blame harry
Like he seriously is a creep and just he didn't get the "LUST" of his life, that doesn't mean he will treat everyone badly and make them feel the same "injustice" as he felt. Like I would've seriously gaged if he had got along with lily. Lily was a far better human than severus.(not saying James was any better)
@@Robstar-yz2em Nah you are really downplaying Snape's past here. After being bullied for years, he made the mistake of joining the death eaters and retreating into dark magic at a very young age. It's a lot for a kid to handle, so yes he didn't react well to seeing his love married to his bully, but there was a lot more to it than that. Does it excuse the way he treats the kids as an adult no, but it is understanding given how broken he is and he makes up for it by constantly saving them from actual harm.
Yeah he took an essential part to defeat mouldy Voldy. Voldy could know if one was lying to him or not but he couldn't find out about Snape, Snape was a brilliant occlumens, without him being an occlumens, Voldy would have cut Harry into pieces like a knife on soft bread.

Hagrid is the most powerful. He is capable of transfiguring humans with a broken wand that he isn't even in contact with, and cast all of his spells without speech. He took on a team of armed wizards cursing him when he was completely unarmed, and would have won if he actually tried. He has a hidden intelligence only Dumbledore knows of, he allows the information Harry needs to succeed to seemly slip. He has it all planned out ahead of time. Dumbledore trusts him with his life because he knows how truly strong and talented Hagrid is.

Im a Hufflepuff. Im pretty sure the main traits are loyal, trustworthy and hardworking. That’s not “nerd”. Thats Ravenclaw. Hufflepuffs are known to be the kind house to most people (even though no house is considered “kind”) and
Ravenclaw: Creativity, *wit* and literally *prizes learning*
Tell me which house has the most nerds?
McGonagall didn’t actually defeat the 2 death eaters, it was actually Snape that reflected the spells onto the 2 death eaters and stole their wands then left..
I guess in the movies they decided to make him much more powerful. In the books mcgonagall with 2 other teachers chased Snape away
Vipipe MMSG read the books
@@EatYourVegs I think you're a kind of wrong. Wasn't it Snapes intention to go Voldemort so he can help Harry in sort strange way. In they book is mentioned that he already tried to disarm or even kill deatheaters, so I think he has left on purpose. The others only helped him. But I can be wrong...
Was looking for this comment.
Read the books
Are we forgetting that Flitwick defeated Dolohov in combat? Flitwick was said to be a dueling master. Also, I feel that McGonagall deserves to be higher on the list.
true dat
Most *POWERFUL* spell is........
“Eat slugs Malfoy!”
Draco: MY FATHER WILL HEAR ABOUT THIS
No its "UGHUGHHGHHG"
And the most powerfull wand is Ron's broken wand
The spell that is more powerful than that is
Eat slugs no malfoy
McGonagall was criminally low on this list.
Quack Meister At least she's in the list! Unlike the ginger, 4 eyes and hottie.
they weren't particularly powerful in the books, as Harry himself said, a lot of what he did was pure luck (although it may have also been related to the prophecy but he had no way of knowing that) as for Ron and Hermione, sure they probably became pretty accomplished later in life (especially Hermione), but from what we know in Canon, they really don't belong on the list.

These 3 are very weak and inexperienced compared to the wizards on this list.

I hope they make the duel between Dumbledore and grindlwald very epic and long (like a 15 minutes scene or something ) in the next fantastic beasts movies and I always wished to see more of voldemort powers in duels
I totaly agree with the fact that Grindelwald is more powerful than Voldemort. He is more like a political idealist. He did not create Horcruxes because he knew how dezastrous this was to ones soul and he chose to be the smart one by keeping his soul intact. He also could, unlike Voldemort, understand the power of love.
Making a Horcrux is an act of cowardice; that shows you are afraid of death.
He didn't create a horcrux because he didn't know what a horcrux is. Neither did Dumbledore.
According to Rowling, only one wizard in history was able to create a horcrux before Voldemort- Herpo the Foul, a Greek wizard who lived in the 7th century.
Then you’ve clearly not read the books. Voldemort is literally described as the most powerful dark wizard of all time. Dumbledore himself says it.
Grindelwald was a better leader and better person, but Voldemort was the more powerful and skilled wizard.
sure voldemort was more skilled but rowling describes grindelwald as more dangerous because of the lengths he would go to get his way
@@SarastistheSerpent When it comes to the Dark Arts, Voldemort is surely better than Grindelwald, but I think when it comes to love, Grindelwald exceeds Voldemort in knowledge. As we have seen, love always wins.
Otto von Bismark not just the dark arts, Voldemort was a prodigy in all forms of magic. And Rowling said that Grindelwald was a sociopath who had no ability to understand love.
While the 7/10 most powerful wizards are indeed very talented, they are nothing when it comes to the top 3. Voldemort, Grindelwald and Dumbledore are Titans compared to the other 7.
This.
Very true.
I think Voldemort should be 2 or even 1. Dumbledore could never stop him in battle.
@@kirak1561 Dumbledore is easily a better wizard than Voldemort.
Luka alonso Voldemort is the better wizard. The only thing, that makes it easier for Dumbledore is the elder wand.
How about reading a book and understand the true power of Severus Snape? He fought Minerva, with slightly better skills just because he didn't want her hurt. And when two more teachers came, he fought 3 of them until he escaped. And yes, his devotion to dark arts were insane. But he stopped because of Lily's death.
Snape chose his fate when he called Lily a mudblood. He was overly obsessive of her and cared nothing for a child dying do long as Lily survived. He hanged out with his death eater friends. Just with his interactions with Lily and he's a bad person.
Also voldemort didnt knew snape plan because slytherin could read minds but snape never let voldemort do because he was powerful!

What is all this about to do with top 10 wizards and witches?
This is based off the movies. Nothing more annoying than you book cry babies
@@nonamer769 if you have any brain you can understand thst the lsit is based on the books
Snape and that’s done.
He kept Voldemort out of his mind to the extent he didn’t give anything away even when he was dying.
Voldemort ultimately kills him because he’s trying to find out who has the wand, nothing more.
Also, Snape kept the curse at bay that was killing Dumbledore.
Finally, he is the only wizard shown to create his own fatal curse, but also to be able to save someone from it.
None of that shows he is the most powerful wizard. Dumbledore, grindelwald and voldemort are still far far above his league in pretty much every aspect of magic, excluding maybe potions and occlumency.
@@SouthpawsRule217 so the fact Voldemort made him his most trusted agent??
That Dumbledore trusted him as the only one who could be a double agent??
I think you’ve missed out on a lot of details. Don’t just watch the films.
@@AngelicusImmortus he was in the agent role because of his intellect and occlumency. He isnt even close to the likes of dumbledore or voldemort in terms of power, especially considering both have one shotted snape before. Hell snape almost lost to mcgonagall in about 10 seconds, while voldemort wrecked mcgonagall, kingsley and slughorn at once and dumbledore beat a prime, elder wand wielding grindelwald in a duel.

@@suprgamr1722 Still they're both good at magic
Exactly
1:41 actually it was Snape who defeated them by deflecting her spells towards them. Hiding his true identity while protecting the school.
Not in the books- Luna and Harry both defeat the Carrows(although McGonagall casts the Imperius Curse on Amycus as he is waking up from being unconscious thanks to Harry's Cruciatus curse) and McGonagall ensures that they don't escape from Ravenclaw Tower by tying them up and trapping them in a floating net in the Ravenclaw common room.

Grindleward is more powerful than Voldermort. He was able to keep up with Dumbledore while Voldermort couldnt
Grindelwald is more powerful then Voldemort grindelwald at the height of his power would destroy Voldemort at the height of his power and grindelwald could feel remorse and and Voldemort couldn’t
I feel like whether or not Voldemort or Gellert would be on top depends on your definition of power.
In terms of raw magical power, I feel that Voldemort is better.
But in terms having power beyond the wand, Gellert is much better. Voldemort was only about to take UK for a year, while Gellert was able to take over Europe for a longer period of time.
So yeah, I wouldn't consider your answer to be wrong if this is what your definition is.

I personally think that u should’ve also added Salazar Slytherin, Merlin, Godric Gryffindor, Aberforth Dumbledore, Nicolas Flamel and Harry.
Yes, Harry got help in the most of the things that he has done and yes there’s some people who is stronger than him. But killing a basilisk, defending yourself from hundreds of dementors with a patronus in that age, dueling Voldemort like 4 times (even though it was Priori Incantatem he still achieved to move that round-shaped thing to Voldemort). He might have gotten help but he achieved to use his talents in the right way with his courage. He did things that even adult wizard could not do in such a young age. He achieved to keep his love straight. Sometimes everthing is not power but I think some of us failed to understand that. Harry is one of the strongest wizards in the history.
I don’t think any of the wizards in Harry’s age would survive if they were put in the same room as Voldemort with nothing but a wand and no help. Don’t be bloody silly
you forgot to mention harry killed Voldemort
And he was strong after all deaths he had seen and tbh other powerful wizards were helped too
Harry is the main character and the one who flippin’ defeated Voldemort, but still is one of the most underrated characters. 🤭
Harry also survived avada kadavra 2 times!!!
And Geralt of Rivia.
I don't know why, but I thought Hermione was going to be on the list. And Minerva deserves a better place than 9!!!
Hermione is amazing with logic and has an immense array of spells at her disposal, but she isn't particularity "powerful" even if she is magically gifted.
I think she is much more powerful than Bellatrix and Dolohov or even Alastor Moody.
I agree, i thought she would be on here too. She dueled against numerous death eaters that had more experience and still beat them!
Maybe than Bellatrix and Dolohov, but Alestor Moody was an auror. No disrespect to Hermione but she can't even compete against Moody
Yes, she is much more powerful than witches and wizards with twice her experience who were top generals in Voldemorts army (and he only chose the most powerful) and who have murdered countless aurors...ok...
Voldemort is more powerful than Grindelwald. Voldemort fought a Dumbledore to a stalemate while Dumbledore had the elder wand. Grindelwald had the elder wand and still lost to Dumbledore.
I agree, Voldemort was Immortal, only Deus De Machina aka Plot killed him.
According to ollivander, "Dark Lord did Great Things, Evil But Great"
@Xavier Voldemort was only powerful in terms of RAW power... he wasn't as close to the skill level grindelwald had... also, when grindelwald and dumbledore duelled, the elder wand betrayed grindelwald, and took away its power as it sensed dumbledore being a bit more powerful... and yet, that duel became the most legendary duel of all time... dumbledore won ONLY because he was a bit more skillful than grindelwald... in the duel at the ministry, between no nose and dumbledore, the elder wand did the same thing... it sensed the raw power in voldemort and stopped aiding dumbledore... cuz, its a fact that voldemort was the strongest in terms of raw power... and YET, dumbledore used the wand and duelled with voldemort as if voldy was nothing but a kid... at that point dumbledore won the worthiness of elder wand AGAIN... also, to anyone saying voldemort brought dumbledore to a stalemate, its completely false... Voldemort was afraid of dumbledore and at a point, voldy just decided to flee and possess harry... also, dumbledore wasn't trying to kill voldemort at all... he was just delaying Voldy
That is about dumbledore wasnt at his prime when duelling voldemort. Dumbledore was at his prime when duelling grindelwald. Some sources say the duel lasted for 3 hours
@@ComradeCody3349 Grindelwald was only more skillful due to the fact that he had Dumbledore to hone his skills and vice versa. Voldemort literally had no one else to hone his skills with ever because he was never around anyone close to his level long enough after he left Hogwarts. Even as powerful as Snape was, he paled in comparison to Voldemort in raw talent. I mean, the guy could fly. That alone should tell you how powerful he really was. Iron sharpens iron and that is what Dumbledore and Grindelwald were to each other.
@@cps6949 hahaha some sources say lol. It’s all written by jk Rowling. Also in the books, dumbledore was in control of the Voldemort duel. He also had the elder wand against Voldemort, where as grindlewalt had it against him
Barty Crouch Jr. Overpowered and flawlessly imitated Moody for a year, fooling even Dumbledore, who knew Moody well. Manipulated the Goblet of Fire under everyone's noses with what seemed like very little effort, threw off the Imperius curse and his talent and academic achievements are repeated by several others throughout book four. He was also actually a really good teacher. The only reason he was caught was because Voldemort screwed up and let Harry escape.
Macallion explain the imperius part, when did he do that?
His father had him under it. Took a long time to do it, but did it all the same.
Agreed, he was really powerfull!
Crouch didn't overpower Moody alone. He had Wormtail as backup.
Backup being the operative word. How much help could he have been, really? He only managed to become an Animagus with a ton of help.
"Flitwick strong because he beat Dolohov" then ranks Dolohov higher; "Dolohov bested Moody in open combat" then ranks Moody higher. WHAT?
Because moody wasn't in his prime whearas Dolohov was
That's because Moody wasn't in his prime unlike Dolohov and Flitwick

of course he was. he was better at occlumency than voldemort was, amazing at potions, very strong in the dark arts, he made sectumsempra and several other curses and he was very smart. its just too bad we barely get to see him fight while not holding back.
it's obvious he's one of the most powerful wizard in the series

What about barty crouch jr? He tricked besides Dumbledore a lot of other very powerful wizards. He had full control about madeye and his father and managed to help Harry Potter to Win the tri wizard tournement, which seemed nearly impossible. And he was the Main factor why Voldemort returned.
Yes i agree!
In terms of lifting the imperious curse, that was mainly down to Voldemort helping him (even though he was barely alive). He tricked everyone at Hogwarts mainly through good acting rather than powerful magic. Yes he did a great job at getting Harry to win the Tri WIzard Cup, although that was through inside information and one imperious curse on Krum.
iSelfs tricking someone doesn't make you powerful
Also he was one of the few characters who was able to receive 12 O.W.L.s. Even Hermione wasn't able to do it.
Agreed. Barty Crouch Jr. should have been on this list in the place of Slughorn, who wasn't *that* particularly powerful. Crouch was excellent at transfiguration, potions, the Dark Arts, and a slew of other abilities. He was powerful enough to convince the people around him, including Albus Dumbledore, that he was Alastor Moody. Hell, he could even use "silent" magic, as when he subjected Draco Malfoy to the Imperius Curse without actually uttering it.
*Excuse me. The MINERVA MCGONAGALL should be in the top 3, or at the very least the top 5. There's no doubt this ranking is made by a muggle.*
If you think she's top three then you're just delusional. There's not a chance in hell that she's more powerful than Voldemort, Grindelwald, or Dumbledore.

Why do they always forget the homie kingsly 😭😭😭
Sirius Black bursted out of Azkaban, was an animagi and defeated several death eaters on his own.
Because of the Azkaban toll on him and hiding behind curtains make him weak but I would rate him just a shy less than Snape in the list.
I think James and Sirius were a tad better than Snape seeing as they managed to bully him, sure it was never one on one but they did it so casually for 7 years.
I have to insist it took all the marauders to bully Snape, Snape only focused on knowledge and skill while Sirius and James excelled all over sports, girls, mischief etc etc.
And lastly Snape managed to be a double agent between two formidable wizards of all time.
Not so fast, James and Sirius were also considered the brightest students at school, so they excelled at learning and all those other things you mentioned. Also Peter is useless, and Lupin was probably almost never involved since he was always played the role of the peacemaker.
I am just recounting all of the Snape abilities:
1.Healed Malfoy on spot,better than Pomfrey.
2.Contained Voldemort curse and gave Dumbeldore a year to live
3.Was a better potioneer than the text book author.
4.Concoted variety of potions(Veritaserum,Wolfsbane etc)
5.Was a master duelist, even Rowling admitted that it took both Sirius and James just to match his skill.
6.Again- Double agent for Voldemort and became his right hand man.
7.Defeated Flitwick and McGonagall in deulling.
You want more.
I already know he was an amazing wizard, but I don't buy that he was better than James or Sirius. James died early and Sirius spent 13 years in Azkaban, if possible they would've gone on to do incredible things as well. Also I'm sure James and Sirius would have been capable of doing points 1, 2, 4 and 7. Do you have the link to where JK Rowling said that? Or a quote? Because i've never heard her say anything of the sort. It took two of them to *casually overpower* Snape, not *match* him and so if it was a one on one duel (James v Snape or Sirius V Snape) then in that case it would be more of a struggle for both parties and it could go either way but my money's on James or Sirius.
If only Harry took note of the spell Vulnera Sanetur, Dobby could have still been alive.
Vulnera Sanentur is the counter curse for Sectumsempra. And besides, the healing spell only worked on bad cuts and not a knife piercing someones heart.

George could have regained his ear because it is cure for sectumsempra not for everything
Dobby would have died
He did remember bazore
Such a bad student he was
What about Harry? He produced a real Patronus at the age of 13, killed Voldemort and survived death twice
Arian Jashari he could kill voldemort b/c he is the true owner of the most powerful wand in the world ( i forget the name of it ) and voldemort was using that wand to fight Harry , the wand cannot harm its true owner , that is why voldemort lost. He survived the first death bc of the power of love of his mother not his power , second b/c only the soul of voldemort inside him was dead , that ‘s how it works , not bc of his power .
I agree with Jhon, Harry is a great wizard, but his skills are not so much developed compared to the others from this list (also he’s young, maybe as an adult he develop his abilities). I would say he’s not the greatest but he may be the bravest :)
Barbara R i would say he is a prodigy. He become a head auror and the head of the department of magical law enforecement, if im not mistaken
Happy Kiddo Hermione was always more skilled than Harry so she would have to be on the list above him
The Night King nope. Hermione even admitted that harry is better than her. It’s like Harry is the muscle in the team and hermione is the brain.

Objective Ninja The only duel that's better in the movie. Snape is so brilliant while fighting mcgonagall.
Superiorer So true, she adds in facts that don't match the story.
To everyone wondering why Harry's not included, please take a look at this.
Harry is a plot device. Yes, he's brave, has immense willpower and does grow into a powerful wizard and Auror, but putting him on the same level as the guys in this video while he's in school is just ridiculous. He's just not that developed yet
There are a few instances where we can judge his actual combat prowess compared to adult wizards
End of Half-Blood Prince, when Snape is escaping and Harry catches up to him. He has his ass completely handed to him, and we know Snape wasn't trying to harm him, just get him off their back. At the same time, Harry was going all out and still achieved nothing.
When duelling Bellatrix(book 5, end) and she kept laughing and negating his attacks. Only when he gathers all his rage does he manage to actually hit her with a Crucio curse, and it just knocks her down and causes a scream, after whch she escapes. It achieves nowhere close to the full effect it's supposed to.
When he calls Lupin a coward and they both go for their wands(book 7 I think? ) Lupin has the wand out and knocks Harry down before his hand even reaches his pocket, and is they gone before Harry manages to stand up and come to his senses.
Even Mundungus Fletcher, who is generally looked down upon and presented as a coward and petty criminal, manages to pull out his wand, hex Harry, knock him back and Apparate that time when Harry catches him stealing and tries to manhandle him.
We can equivalate this to the real world. Harry is 17. A 17 year old can be very tough/well trained and bloody the noses of some adults in a fight. However that 17 y/o will never be able to beat a grown man that is equally tough and just as much a a born fighter, but is also much stronger, more skilled, more experienced and with more training.
It's the same thing. Harry has potential and is pretty good for his age. He may be able to handle some nameless run of the mill Death Eaters every now and then, but we can't put him on par in terms of combat ability with renowned and powerful combatants that have been duelling people before Harry was born, and certain long before he even suspected wizards exist. He's just not there yet.
BRUH HE PUT SNAPE ON THE LIST MOSLY BECUSE OF THE STUFF HE DID IN SCHOOL DUMBO
snape is a special caseyes he was verrryyyyy gifted in school but he also further porved himself after school as he grew to his full power which harry didn't get the chance to do in the books no one is saying harry couldn't makeit on the list if he was shown many years later as he has developed more they are saying from the point the books ended he wasn't at a point yet where he was more powerful then these 10
Give him 20 more years. And then just maybeeeee
Harry shouldve been somewhere on this list, he couldve killed bellatrix and did kill voldemort
harry did not defeat Voldemort because he was more powerful so no and who says he could have killed Bellatrix she was a very powerful witch actually the last of voldemorts followers left alive and fighting
Voldemort is more powerful than Grindlewald. The proof is when Dumbledore recalls tom riddle's past saying "Did I know I met the most powerful dark wizard of all time"
he says dangerous, but yes voldemort is more powerful for other reasons
But still got beaten and bested by Harry. Lol 😂
Creating 6 horcruxes is enough to become 'the most powerful DARK WIZARD of all time'. But Voldemort's magical prowess was nothing compared to Grindelwald and Dumbledore. He uses only one spell in a duel - avada kedavra. To be a dark wizard, you just have to do horrible things, and whoever does the most horrible things is the most powerful.
@@adarshs1671 True,true...
Lies. He says dangerous
The greatest wizard of all time ever is Gilderoy Lockhart
*sike*
Fraud of all time😂
You should read his book “magical me ✨😉😁”
@@lawdawgm2844 LOLOLOLOL
LOL
Well.. Molly Wealey just killed the 5th most powerful...
Therefore she is the 4th
Well she *”W.A.S”*
YenaBiased she did not want Ginny to die like Fred so the power of love beat Her...and bellatrix probably underestimated her
@@alizaheedi8498 Ginny and Molly couldn't have died anyway because of Harry's protection
A fellow wiz*one. And yena biased too. Hi hahaha
Why is Merlin not on the list?
He literally created created "The Merlin Order" in which Dumbledore is a member xD
It was only characters mentioned in the books continuously
👌
It's kinda hard to classify Merlin, we don't know his magic feats (if i remember right)
Merlin’s beard you right
I was looking for this. Plus Merlin was a good Slytherin
harry= why am not in it
Draco= My father will hear about this
ok but honestly whi isnt harry in this. he preformed a full patronus at the age of 13 and he killed voldemort
He didn’t kill Voldemort
@@luans.40 have you seen the movie or read all the books. he killed voldemort. the hogwarts war??? neville killed the snake and then he killed voldemort
Maria Rizwan Voldemort died because the elder wand realized that he belongs the Harry. Then Voldemort’s spell was thrown at himself. Harry didn’t use any great power. It was Dumbledore‘s plan and Luck
@@luans.40 nope when Neville killed the snake Tom became mortal again also if you watch goblet of fire Harry overpowered him there too showing his abilities and riddle didn’t have to wand at that time explain that
@@kingston6008 Harry just had some kinda power over Voldemort, that's why Voldemort failed to kill him...nd harry just had some kinda gifts nd magic was just so natural to him, he could perfom alot of things easily...but when he came to skill he was not that skilled compare to wizard mentioned...proof to that is when he tried to fight snape
DUMBLEDORE.....no one like him ....truly the best
So according to this list, by the end of the hp series, slughorn is the most powerful wizard in the world
chelseatheblues1905 since Harry threw away the Elder Wand, which answered to him at the moment, you’re right. Slughorn was the most powerful wizard alive.
Joël Röben even if that was the case, it’s because Harry threw away the Elder Wand.
That's what I was working out 😂
Joël Röben I didn’t say anything that contradicts your statement that Minerva was the most powerful at the end. But we still can’t take away the contributing factor that Harry threw away the wand.
Joël Röben he wouldn’t have been as powerful as Dumbledore, but he would have been at least more powerful than Draco would have been and as powerful as Voldemort was when he weilded it. Harry & Draco both became masters of the Elder Wand, and Harry is generally superior to Draco. Let’s say Harry was a level 3 wizard, and Draco was level 2. Now let’s assume being the master of the wand adds 2 levels to the natural power of the wizard. Harry would have been a level 5 wizard, and Draco a level 4. With Dumbledore, let’s assume he was naturally a level 5 wizard. When he became a master of the wand, he became level 7. In Voldemort’s case, his power wasn’t increased because he wasn’t the master of it when he used it. Let’s say he was naturally a level 5 wizard, and stayed that way when he acquired the wand. It’s just math.
I haven’t watched the entire vid yet so don’t judge but
I’m pretty sure the four witches and wizards that created the four hogwart houses aren’t on here
They are the most powerful wizards of time
(Edit:) thanks for the like!! :D
And highlight
Godric Gryffindor, Salazar Slytherin, Rowena Ravenclaw, and Helga Hufflepuff
Isn't merlin is the most powerful wizard all the time?
Taffy Pink Heart Yes.
@@denialz1460 Wait, how is Helga the most powerful Wizards of time?
@@nurdamiasyahirah4129 yes and he was trained under Salazar slyhterin so.... It would be hard to compare these two .....and the other founders....
If Merlin was in the movies he would've made it to top 0. Freaking strongest both in legend and in Harry Potterverse.
J.K. Rowling is the most powerful witch ever.
She’s the overseer of the world of magic.
She was probably the first person to ever utilize magic so she’s the one who created Witchcraft and Wizardry.
She didn't create the concept of witchcraft and wizardy. The idea of spells, wizards, charms and flying broomsticks existed way before her first book.
Kingsley Shacklebolt
Sofia Ali yesss. Super complicated magic, some weirdo tools, and pokemon allies should make him one of the most terrifying.
Number 1: "Gandalf"
Wait......
Gandalf in another world
100th like bro
Number 2: Saruman...
Gandalf the grey.. 😂😂
@@shivendrapundir9990 white gandalf has more powerful
Snape defeated the carrows when he redirected mcgonagalls spell at them.
No read the books
And what about Umbridge she can annoy anyone without a wand ???🤣🤣😂😌😧😝
Jack Mikulic yep saw the original comment right above this one lol
True
@BHEENI JAJODIA he is not, read the comment carefully and stop taking offense to every comment. Your immaturity insults the community
Lol
What?! Merlin wasn't even mentioned?!
yeah merlin was the most powerful wizard of all time
Sky M. You are right brother
Merlin is weak...
Sky M. Yeah but he never even makes a real appearance in the books or movies so it wouldn’t be fair
This is only about the wizards in the books, we actually get to know about. We don't get anything about Merlin from the books, do we?
Why isnt gandalf on this list?? Hes like the best wizard
Idiot wrong show plus dumbledore's actor isn't the same actor as gandalf's
Whoosh
@@animationlife2582 Gandalf is totally the best, he can even move metal with his mind.

I know that we only see Aberforth Dumbledore a little but judging by that massive Patronus Charm during the Battle of Hogwarts, I think he deserves a mention here.
Wrong
Bloody Hell!! Where is me
Not on this list
Ronald Weasley language RON
WHAT
I agree Lord and master
Are you the real Ronald Weasley
From the HP books, before fantastic beasts.
1. Merlin

7. Rowena Rawenclaw
8. Helga Hufflepuff
9. Nicholas Flamel
10. Severus Snape/Minerva McGonagall/Amelia Bones/Filius Flitwick (One of those. They are pretty close matched.)
Sorry but Grindelwald >>>> Voldemort
Lol hogwarts 4
FeTim - not at ALLLLL
FeTim -, Voldemort is more powerful than Grindelwald. Just admit it
Merlin is the best warlock/ wizard to walk this earth
Minerva is stronger than bellatrix
yep, just realize Molly weasly defeated Bellatrix XD
Lol Molly only beat her because she was in rage mode after the death of her twin son whatshisname
tiny rick! True. If she is concentrating on the fight she could’ve killed all those students watching them fight.
Yes absolutely
Wayy
"Antonin Dolohov is voldemorts most loyal death eater"
Bellatrix lestrange "ahem ahem"
Just to be clear no one should ever think snape was a bad guy/confused romantic. Snape was sooooo integral to defeating Voldemort
He was still bad, he bullied students and made them petrified of him "just because he lost his loved one" Sirious lost, james, lily and went to azkaban and didnt blame harry, Lupin lost James, Lily, sirious and pettigrew in ONE night and didnt blame harry
Okay he was integral to the defeat of Voldemort that doesn’t make him good and it doesn’t stop him from being at the very very least shady in morality
Like he seriously is a creep and just he didn't get the "LUST" of his life, that doesn't mean he will treat everyone badly and make them feel the same "injustice" as he felt. Like I would've seriously gaged if he had got along with lily. Lily was a far better human than severus.(not saying James was any better)
@@Robstar-yz2em Nah you are really downplaying Snape's past here. After being bullied for years, he made the mistake of joining the death eaters and retreating into dark magic at a very young age. It's a lot for a kid to handle, so yes he didn't react well to seeing his love married to his bully, but there was a lot more to it than that. Does it excuse the way he treats the kids as an adult no, but it is understanding given how broken he is and he makes up for it by constantly saving them from actual harm.
Yeah he took an essential part to defeat mouldy Voldy. Voldy could know if one was lying to him or not but he couldn't find out about Snape, Snape was a brilliant occlumens, without him being an occlumens, Voldy would have cut Harry into pieces like a knife on soft bread.
Draco: I'm not on this list. My farther will hear about this
Me: Shut up draco
Bruh dont copy other peoples jokes lmao.

You missed NICOLAS FLAMEL!
he is not still as familiar as others
he shouldnt be on the list
@@rezadadkhah5597 he is an alchemist that made philosophers stone

Mcgonagall also once tanked six stupefy spells before she went down. Six. She’s so fucking badass
