That's completely incorrect. It was two wizards against one and Voldemort still stayed. Not Voldemort's fault Harry just stood there and watched.
Dumbledore attacked him with the water bubble so don't act like he was just on the defensive the entire time.
You have no proof that Dumbledore limits himself with the elder wand. I guess by your logic not using an avada kedavra means less power. LOL.
Dumbledore beat an inferior dark wizard to Voldemort years ago. He didn't beat Voldemort. Voldemort knocked him on his ass and dictated most of the fight. This is all despite the fact Albus wielded the most powerful wand in existence.
The vid corroborates everything I have said. You just made something up by saying Dumbledore limits himself with the elder wand. That's what we call a baseless claim.
only you would argue that a person not fighting counts as a fighter.
While constantly having to worry after Harry's safety. We see him glance back in concern during the duel. His focus was split.
HP lore. If you did a moment of research, you'd know this. Only you would think restricting yourself from using an instant death spell in a fight wouldn't put someone at a disadvantage.
That dark wizard was second only to Voldermort in the dark wizard world and he was armed with the elder wand at the time.
The vid shows Voldermort making an "oh shit face" after he realizes Dumbledore's still a badass and he flees. So you're wrong.
Dumbledore > Voldrmort, even if it's by a fraction. You're just going to have to accept that your favorite had a better, vid proves it.
Voldemort was taking Harry on and then Dumbledore jumped in. Voldemort stayed despite Albus telling him more are on the way.
False. He knew Voldemort was going to break out of the water sphere so he pushed Harry back. His attention was always on Voldemort.
This is the movies version. At no point does it ever mention or allude to Dumbledore limiting himself in terms of overall power. So wait so you're saying anyone who has used the instant death spell is more powerful than Dumbledore ? so based off of your logic Goyle is more powerful than Dumbledore since he used the death curse.
Off camera and not as great as Voldemort per Albus's own words. Voldemort being better and being at the disadvantage of taking him on with the most powerful wand in existence. You can't escape from it. It's unbelievably awesome.
No, he is standing over Harry taunting him as Albus looks on fearful because he can't do anything about it. Voldemort leaves after the aurors arrive. Dumbledore needed backup.
Voldemort>Dumbledore. Dumbledore had the most powerful wand ever and he still looked inferior power wise and Voldemort's power feats shit all over Albus'.
36 minutes in the Harry Potter Order of the Phoenix special part which covers all movies up to this point it verifies Voldemort is the greatest wizard of the age. They even say Dumbledore agrees. Feel the burn naysayers.
This is an interesting post and i think it's a bit hard to answer...
I will talk just about Harry Potter's Wizards.
Like everyone knows, Voldemort had great power and knowledge, specially in dark magic. On the other and Dumbledore had wisdom and he was the one wizard, before Harry Potter, you could face off Voldemort. Of course Dumbledore couldn't kill him because the horcruxes.
And, the years passed and Harry Potter cames to kill Voldemort.
But, besides that, Harry learned too much over the years and he proved to be wise and brave.
I think that Alastor "Mad-Eye" Moody was a great Wizard too. McGonagall stands at the same place, she was so awesome..
So, there is my answer with no conclusion about who's the best wizard of all time, Dumbledore or voldemort.
Talking about the movies, the best representation of wizard was Bellatrix Lestrange. She made me get nervous and frustrated everytime i saw/see the movies. I loved her role in the all HP saga.
Finally, here is the podium:
1. Dumbledore/Voldemort
3. Grindlewald
4. Snape/Alastor Moody/McGonagall
7. Harry Potter
8. Bellatrix Lestrange /Sirius Black
10. Hermoine Granger
Gender: Male Location: Heavens of Mystic
The Birth Place
He's right just because someone had the elder wand doesn't mean he would automatically win. For instance dumbledore defeated grindlewald who was the true master of the elder wand at the time
