The fact that he's an immortal, and as proven by the Phoenix, AK doesn't perma-kill immortals, and the fact that his rotting ass doesn't seem to have any pain receptors, even when Rick chopped his arm off.
Prove it. He has a mind and feels. The guy commits suicide and feels pain at her fleeing from him. LOl.

Imhotep also dies. Immortal doesn't mean unkillable it just means ability to live forever.Context is everything though you try very hard to distance yourself from it.
Yes.
Hiding under your bed like you usually do.
Yet he is still mortal
So he lost or he did not lose?
No.
Right. Yet here i is

Again with the proving the negatives with you. Can you prove i cannot fly? So them i guess you should just assume i can right?
Look we see how Imperio works and even tho Voldemort has never done it on screen we can assume it is an option available to him on the fly. We see how the disarm spell works and even tho we never see him use it we can assume it is an option available to him on the fly. We see how polyjuice works and we was assume it is something he can do but not on the fly. Now we have never seen an Inferi made so we cannot just assume a wand flick will suffice. He may need prep time so until it is known how the process works we can not and will not assume it is a viable tactic here

If he could do it instantly, why didn't he turn the people that were dying in the final battle into Inferi? after all, it would have greatly helped his side.
He was probably concentrating more on molesti...I mean killing Harry. And with all the Inferi Vold had, you think he went to each one individual and performed a ritual? It seems far more plausible that he used a quick spell

No, because I've never seen a human fly. I've seen Vold with an army of Inferi though, so he definitely knows how to make them.
We don't know exactly what creates them, but it seems more plausible it was a quick spell rather than a long ritual or potion, as shown by the massive size of Vold's Inferi army. Sometimes we don't get direct facts and have to use logical thinking to provide conclusions.
Vold can create Inferi, so it's a tactic here. If you can somehow prove that it takes time to create Inferi, then Vold loses with this tactic, but it is a tactic he has available.

Having more troops would have helped him with that, but he didn't make any, which makes no sense if we assume that they can be made instantly, like your claiming.
So, either it's OOC for Tom to use it during a fight or it takes to much time to be used...either way, it's not a viable tactic for this thread.
Like I said, he wanted Harry, and was monomaniacally obsessed with doing that. He wasn't concentrating on the best strategy. Vold isn't omniscient. He can be distracted and illogical.
If it's OOC, Vold can most definitely use it. Please don't tell me you are resorting to Quan tactics about "arguing in character" 😆.
Like I said, if you can prove it takes time, then Vold loses with the tactic, but Vold has demonstrated it, and thus can use it.
Originally posted by ScreamPasteIt isn't featless since it has killed. Immortality here only works against mortal weapons.
I never claimed magic cannot hurt him, I'm pointing out that a featless spell cannot be claimed to work on him because his power of immortality is directly opposed to it.You have not proven the spell will work, so you lose.
The burden is on you since you claim the spell won't work here.
