Voldemort vs Kong

If you're saying any and all magic can work on Kong, you'll need to prove that the spells will have an effect on a 400 foot tall creature when we've only ever seen them used on people and small in comparison animals. A bullet to the skull will kill a man. But if you shoot Kong in the head he's gonna smear you across the ground for annoying him.

There are descriptions of the size and tough skin of creatures making them immune as well. There's even a statement that they use shrinking potions to make naturally immune creatures smaller so magic can work on them.

So if you wanna say magic works, you can't just give it an infinite range.

Those don't support your stance. Sure, trolls and giants may have hides that repel spells. But that doesn't mean it's due to them being large or because they have thick hides. By contrast the quotes I provided explicitly state that dragons are resistant to magic because they are magical and have magical hides. Like I said, there is no reason to believe otherwise when it comes to trolls and giants.

Now scale does matter for certain spells like transfiguration spells. However, I am unsure if this remains true for the Killing Curse and, even if it does, Voldemort has used magic on such a scale before.

These 2 statements directly contradict each other.

And the quote is that it's because a troll's hide is so tough. If that's the explanation given, how is it not the reason?

And sure they support my stance. All of these large, tough skinned creatures are immune to magic and the thing they have in common is they are large and tough skinned.

Even with the dragons there are mentions of magic and tough skin so both could apply, although it doesn't have to necessarily apply to Kong as he's an ape. But the point is he's far larger and far tougher than anything any wizard has ever used a spell on. Why would the spells work on him when they don't work on creatures a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of his size?

What magic has Voldemort used on the scale of a fully grown Kong? What was the spell? How effective was it?

Hell, what proof is there magic works on a gigantic monkey from the center of the Earth where the laws of physics and reality work completely different?

Even if the Killing Curse worked on Kong, to what degree would it work? Would it make his big toe feel fuzzy like when your leg falls asleep?

Saying "Magic works on a 400 foot tall monkey because it worked on all these people just cuz" doesn't cut it for me. That's giving magic infinite power.

That's like saying, "Superman lifted an apartment building in Justice League, so he can surely lift a skyscraper" despite there being no evidence of such.

If I were a betting man, I'd leave it to chance. If I were still a hunter, I'd chase-same diff.

They do not. Because we do not know why their hides repel spells. And like I said, I'm inclined they repel spells because if innate magic similar to dragons.

When he destroyed Hogwarts' defenses.

That was him delivering the final blow after all of his Death Eaters blasted into the shield to weaken it. He didn't just walk up and break it. Also in doing so, he nearly destroyed the Elder Wand.

And okay, let's go with your theory. How strong do you think Voldemort's magic is? Can it affect a 400 foot tall gorilla that's powerful enough to withstand a gravity inversion to the center of the planet? That is from a world(Hollow Earth) with a completely different set of rules. Maybe he's immune to magic because of that?

We never even see the 3 curses on anything larger than a human, so what evidence is there that it'll work on a building sized creature? If it does work, to what degree will it?

Nice to see the no limits fallacy is still being used.

The shield shows very little sings of damage until he releases his blast.

And I've already stated I'm unsure whether scale matters in regards to the Killing Curse. However, considering the level and scale of magic Vodly is capable of, I don't see Kong's size being an issue unless he is resistant to magic in someway.

NO LIMITS FALLACY!!! That's what it's called. I couldn't remember the term.

Damn. King and Ares both have shit to fall back on straight out of the source.

I usually side with hax magic but not sure on this one because voldemort was such a failure

Grindelwald can destroy all of Paris with a spell, Voldemort is canonically Grindelwald's superior, Voldemort wins. 👆

everyone seems to forget that Kong moves at hundreds of miles per hour like pretty much all the time. Every single part of his fight with Goji and Mecha G was literally faster than a Lamborghinis top speed

Voldemort can destroy a city with a single spell, I don't recall that happening. can someone post a clip with the timestamp?

King Kong steps on all of Hogwarts with every wizard that ever set a foot on it inside. 👆

been years since i've watched the harry pothead films but do not recall voldy beating someone of kong's stature
