^ Hell yeah.
Magus is the strongest magic user in the game overall, even above Lavos and Queen Zeal (although Luminaire can be more powerful if maxed).
Also, as far as magic, Magus can only be hurt by the opposite to the type he last used, otherwise he gets healed by it (Magus boss battle).
But, Magus loses to being distracted by naked Bayonetta.
No, Magus wins because Bayonetta is naked. Frankly I'm disgusted that a character as bad ass as Magus was placed in the same thread as a character designed by perverted, 43 year old virgins. A character that is unable to appear in a cutscene without 7+ close up crotch or chest shots loses miserably to the scythe wielding Janus.
