10 Most Powerful Wizards In Harry Potter

Though JK Rowling went to great efforts to establish that it was love rather than any hex or curse or charm that was the most powerful force in the Wizarding World she created she also made sure to furnish her world with Wizards of incredible skill and power and though

It’s terribly Slytherin of any fan to be particularly bothered about how great – your ability as a wizard is it’s still interesting nonetheless luckily there are some of us in Salazar’s house who just need to know how the Wizarding world’s finest and most fearsome sorcerers stack up against

One another I’ve been from what culture and here are the ten most powerful wizards in Harry Potter number 10 filius Flitwick don’t let the size fool you the smallest Hogwarts professor is actually massively underrated and a prodigiously gifted wizard beyond his professional credentials Flitwick has widely proclaimed the greatest charms master

Alive which is some billing and clearly it helped him become an incredibly gifted duelist – as he made a name for himself as search Voldemort’s Death Eaters found out exactly how skilled he was as it was he who managed to take down the fearsome Anton in dollar HOF in

The Battle of Hogwarts robbing the Dark Lord of one of his most dangerous weapons number 9 Minerva McGonagall you don’t get to be Dumbledore’s most trusted left tenant and his heir is the head of Hogwarts without doing a lot of things right McGonigle’s chief power comes in the form of Transfiguration the

Trickiest of all magical disciplines she is not only an animagus but also helped defend the castle in the Battle of Hogwarts by bringing suits of armor and desks to life to fight the Death Eaters on top of that she defeated both of the Carrows and while Snape

Probably wasn’t trying all that hard she also held her own against him in a duel more importantly she also jeweled with Voldemort alongside Kingsley Shacklebolt and Horace Slughorn holding him to a stalemate number 8 Anton in dollar HOF he might look a bit foolish when he’s the victim of a petrification charm in

The Deathly Hallows but there’s no getting around the fact that Anton and dollar Hoff is Voldemort’s most infamous Death Eater despite only being a supporting presence in books the Dark Wizard is one of the most powerful and dangerous wizards in existence having chosen to focus his prodigious skillful magic on harming his

Enemies as much as possible he’s a multi-time murderer an awesomely skilled duelist who managed to bests Alastor Moody in open combat and kill Remus Lupin and most impressively of all his signature purple spell seems to be one of his own creation number 7 Horace Slughorn there’s no finer indication of

Slughorn’s power than the Death Eaters repeated attempts to recruit him he is a master potion maker a hugely knowledgeable student of magic including the dark arts and his command of ahh clemency and Transfiguration are close to unrivaled after all human Transfiguration requires absolute mastery of the magic and he’s able to

Transform into a chair at will plus despite his slightly bumbling appearance Slughorn is also an impressive duelist surviving the Battle of Hogwarts and helping Minerva McGonagall and Kingsley Shacklebolt fight with Voldemort in the aforementioned duel number 6 Alastor Moody though he’s introduced at his lowest point mad I was the most

Famous aura of modern times and you don’t get that sort of reputation without some serious credentials to back it up even if it does cost you a couple of body parts Moody was a one-man army against the dark hearts having personally sent many of azkaban most notorious criminals there which is

Precisely why Lord Voldemort believed he would be guarding the real Harry Potter during the Battle of the 7 potters so in essence it was his power that got him killed and Voldemort had good reason to believe it mad I was an expert in charms Transfiguration defensive magic

Herbology and potions and even in death his protective charms on Grimmauld place was so strong that even Voldemort couldn’t penetrate them number 5 Bellatrix Lestrange it is said that Bellatrix Lestrange is as formidable a Dark Arts user as the near legendary Anton in dollar HOF though really her

Skill and danger surpassed even him she was a supreme mistress of dark magic with a particular aptitude for the Cruciatus curse and incredible skills as a duelist having defeated several very highly skilled auras she was the last Death Eaters standing during the Battle of Hogwarts aside from Valda and himself having killed Nymphadora

Tonks to add two serious blacks murder earlier in the series while she might have been somewhat annoying to Voldemort he grew to respect her which was the ultimate sign of respect of her power level given his usual refusal to acknowledge human worth number four Severus Snape whether you believed he

Was a fundamentally bad guy or just a misunderstood romantic there’s no getting around the fact that Severus Snape was a profoundly powerful wizard he was essentially a potions God even teaching textbooks how to improve on their recipes and was also an excellent duelist on top of that he could fly

Without a broom something only he and Voldemort were capable of and was said to be proficient with dark magic curses in fact he came up with a number of formidable spells of his own while still at school including Sectumsempra healing spell vulnera sanentur Lang lock muffler

Otto and levy corpus I hope I pronounced those correctly were it not for his love of Lily Potter he could have arguably grown to the same grim stature as his Dark Lord number three Lord Voldemort although he was undone by love a particularly hippie concept even in the Wizarding World

Lord Voldemort had ascended to a power that was almost unprecedented amongst dark wizards by the time of his death even as a child Tom Riddle was capable of great and terrible acts of magic even without a wand he grew to push the boundaries of magical ability in a way

That was both unprecedented and terrifying even when facing the Elder Wand or wielding a magic that he was not the master of plus he was only one of two Wizards capable of true unassisted flight and for goodness sake he was so infamous that his name alone inspired terror number two Gellert Grindelwald

While there are some who will call Voldemort the Hitler of the Wizarding World the rather clumsy label actually belongs to Gellert Grindelwald a nefarious murder far more intent on the destruction and subjugation of inferior muggles than cementing his legacy he started early earning himself an expulsion from durmstrang where he had

Built a reputation as one of their most gifted students ever when his twisted experiments came to light but even without a complete education he applied his genius level intellect alone things like rendering himself invisible without the use of an invisibility cloak and exploding enemies with a mere slash

Of his wand also since he managed to dupe the entire magical community into thinking he was really Percival graves he was clearly a champion hide-and-seek player number one Albus Dumbledore if you’re both the only wizard feared by Voldemort and the only one capable of beating Gellert Grindelwald in a duel

You probably deserved to be considered the most powerful wizard ever as if there was any question of Dumbledore’s power the most famous of Hogwarts Headmaster’s Dumbledore was a living legend complex but driven ultimately by pure love and a desire to allow light to prevail over darkness he also defeated

Grindelwald inspired fear in the Dark Lord and bragged almost casually about how easy it would be to escape Azkaban his morals may have been occasionally murky but he was the master of death having owned all three Deathly Hallows and his magical ability knew absolutely no equal in his type or any other and
