Who Is The Greater Wizard Between Harry Potter And Merlin? by Lionbite(m): 8:32am On Dec 08, 2013

[b]when it comes to magic and spells the first two sorcerers I would give anything to see get into the ring are the ubiquitous Mr. Potter and the eponymous hero of the new BBC series,Merlin (i know my fellow naija people will agree to this).

Who would win? That’s exactly what this article is determined to find out so I decided to do a little research on both characters(i no get work)

In one corner, we have Harry Potter, the hero in JK Rowling’sHarry Potterseries and a child wizarding prodigy. The movie follow his journey to a young adult with his best friends Hermione Granger and Ron Weasly, mastering spell-casting and eventually leading to a confrontation with the dark wizard Voldemort, who is so powerful adult wizards dare not speak his name.

In the other corner, we have Merlin from the new BBC UK TV series, a re-imagination of the archetypal British myth. In the series we observe young Merlin who arrives fresh at Camelot only to discover he must protect young Prince Arthur while hiding his mystical nature because Arthur’s father has outlawed all magic in the kingdom!

Introductions aside let’s see who would win in a duel between these magical prodigies: and Note Harry needs a wand, Merlin does not.[/b]

Merlin grew up to be the most powerful wizard of all time. Even Dumbledore who trained Harry Potter's title was "order of merlin". Harry stands no chance

Merlin z far greater than Harry Porter, Porter can't use magic without his "stupid" stick, but for Emrys......na to shine d eyes!!! Even Merlin z greater than d "wizard of d first order", Zeddicus Zu'l Zorander, but Zedd has more experience due to his age....
.....only dat Zedd nd Harry r free to use their magic, but itz not so for Merlin

Merlin is more powerful joor. He doesn't need anything to perform magic unlike Harry who needs a wand to perform the simplest spell. Besides, Harry lost most of his super supernatural powers the day voldemort's soul(horcrux) in him died.

When you asked this question, wasn't the answer already staring at you?

MERLIN it is. In all ramifications!

Btw, Who is the most powerful among Voldemort, Dumbledore and Zediccus.

Go and read the book Harry potter. Dumbledore is more powerful especially when he was younger and he went on the search of the Deathly hallows. When he gave up the quest, he tuned good and he limited the power he could use.

He was the only one Voldemot remember?

I've read all 7 books and I'd have picked Dumbledore if he wasn't so honourable. That limited him. Voldemort on the other hand stretched magic to it's breaking point. I pick voldemort.

i would put voldermort slightly ahead of dumbledore cuz of his old age and on par if he was younger...remember when they dueled in part 5 and the phoenix had to take a curse for dumbledore so he could deal with the snake attacking him?

Ever wondered why Hogwards was one of the few places that was safe when Voldemot wanted power? Even when he got to power, he avoided a confrontation.

And dont judge Harry potted based on the movie. The movie says Harry killed Voldemort which is false

But why did voldemort fear him so much? He even knows more hidden magic than voldemort sef. Remember hen they dueled at the ministry, voldemort did not want

True that. Even in book seven, Dumbledore had to beg snape for death so he wouldn't face voldemort. So much for him being the only person voldemost was scared of.

You forget that Dumbledore can defeat Voldemort but cannot kill him because he has split his soul. Besides he did not beg snape kill him, he was poisoned by the ring of Slytherine and the poison had no cure so having snape kill him would bring snape closer to Voldemort.

Remember what the prophecy said
"And the one shall be born, the dark lord shall mark him as his equal, for one cannot live while the other lives"

Dude, the movie is false. I am not arguing based on it
