Harry Potter vs. Captain America

Since, by the forum rules, combatants begin half a kilometer apart, Harry should have ample time to fire off a couple spells before Cap destroys him in melee, or cuts him in half with his shield.

On the other hand, regular humans were capable of dodging spells, curses, or whatever so certainly Captain America could do similarly, at least for a while.

Then, we also would have to figure out whether Harry's rudimentary (compared to Marvel/DC Magicians) magic would work on Captain America's shield.

Hmmm...

Harry takes it.

harry ftw

Shield hit to Harry face, for the win... 😂

When did Cap last do battle with a dark lord wizard??

I doubt Harry would even see him coming.

Exactly what I was thinking.

As I mentioned, regular humans were dodging spells left and right during any fights in the book. Cap could do the same.

Then again, Harry's obviously the more powerful...

It's a glass cannon versus a hammer...

Cap does well against magic. Cap on shots him to neverland.

Harry

ZOMG!!! Your shield broke my wand :'(

When was the last time Harry defused a terrorist threat devised by the Red Skull 🙄

This whole forum is now devolving into chaos with these types of threads............

I hope Ill wasn't referring to me and this thread (or my The One/Monk/Captain America/John Preston thread) with his Zero Tolerance policy post.

I didn't mean for this to be a jab at the new rules.

The fight does indeed seem like it could go either way....it's like I said - Harry's a glass cannon. While he could conjure up hundreds of versatile and powerful spells, he could also get his skull caved in with a single punch from Steve.

Also; Cap's fought 'dark wizards' on several occasions...it IS marvel comics, afterall....

Sorry, I wasn't having a go at you personally or the mods or this thread. I just personally think that the idea to introduce non comic book characters into a comic book vs forum is not only illogical but extremely chaotic and must surely cause tons of unnecessary hassle and feedback (Like my own personal rant here) Sorry to rant, that's just how I feel ✅

True. *cough* Quanchi sucks. *cough* 😛

Yeah, true ✅

It wasn't you Soljer, it was actually Endless Mike that made it necessary with his Chuck Norris thread (which is why this thread is still open).

No beef with you dude.

*edit

Also, the expanded character roster isn't the cause of the hassle, it's the immature posters that are. You can have a good debate on Sub Zero vs. Human Torch without it resorting to insults so long as the parties involved stay on topic.

More options is better for creativity and to alleviate the stagnation that has beset this forum.
