Who Could Have Been the Most Powerful Wizard After Dumbledore, Voldemort & Grindelwald?

from Harry Potter Theory · host Harry Potter Theory

In the world of Harry Potter there are a few witches and wizards that are just..A cut above the rest. You know who I’m talking about.. Dumbledore Grindelwald Voldemort And while they are all undeniably UNIQUE in a multitude of ways, what truly sets them apart from the rest is their IMMENSE magical power The ultimate currency among witches and wizards. In a past video I discussed WHY I think that these powerful few ARE the way that they are..Whether it’s attributed to their natural ability, their intelligence, their drive, or in some cases - the trauma that shaped them. But regardless of how they achieved it, these witches and wizards reached the very peak of the magical spectrum. Which is why today I want to approach this from a slightly different angle- taking a closer look at the witches and wizards who never reached their full potential. To clarify, I’m talking about those who COULD HAVE been among the most powerful, but fell short for some reason. Full transparency: When I came up with this topic I had NO IDEA what the final list was going to look like. Of course a few names popped in to my head, but constructing a final 5 wasn’t an easy task as there are SO MANY deserving characters. I think at least one of them will be a surprise. I’m also sure that your opinions will vary from mine, so comment YOUR TOP 5 down below before we start. Anyway, let’s dive in to it. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
