You are trying to disregard the other instances because it cripples your argument. He doesn't even need to start out by tossing them around. Against Dumbledore he was his most impressive it's just Dumbledore was his closest thing to an equal while possessing the elder wand. Voldemort still knocked him on his ass while being in control of the fight.
Voldemort would be all over these other wizards from the get.
I never claimed that it was the case, you asked how Morgana was supposed to avoid the Killing curse, I provided what I think would be a fair response, her ability to pull herself apart, but then I came to think of the way Voldemort duels, and while the killing curse is used, I wouldn't say it's Voldemorts opening move. If it was indeed his opening move, I would think that it would have been used against Dumbledore. But to each his own. As I said Quanchi we apparently have very different ideas of what a fight is, so no reason to pursue that. Which is also why I changed it to a magical duel, that is a more solid term.
No I'm not, I'm drawing into question what I believed was your original stance that Voldemort will always engage his opponents with the killing curse as his first move, a stance that I based on the movies does not agree with, as mentioned. It's as simple as that. So read again, I didn't say that Voldemort doesn't utilize the killing curse, I said that he doesn't imo open every magical duel with it.
