✨ Ass Fat ✨ 9,598 Posted November 24, 2016 Share Posted November 24, 2016 How strong do you think Mcgonagall is?? I mean we know she is no Dumbledore, Voldemort but we've actually never seen her fight besides her throwing attacks at snape which really didn't show much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foo 3,048 Posted November 24, 2016 Share Posted November 24, 2016 I mean, she chased Snape away, Dumbledore trusted her a lot, and she became headmistress. So she probably is really strong. I'd say around as strong as Kingsley or Bellatrix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abra 40,910 Posted November 24, 2016 Share Posted November 24, 2016 Easily top 5 in Hogwarts She's aging but on the other hand she's second in command in Hogwarts and probably one of the most knowledgeable in magic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blazeaire 5,629 Posted November 24, 2016 Share Posted November 24, 2016 Very powerful, objectively top 10 in the series for sure and even top 5 imo, transfigurations is one of the hardest magic to learn and even though she wasn't the best at dueling, she was able to go toe to toe with Snape and even Voldemort albeit with some help, could say more but just look at her wiki entry http://harrypotter.wikia.com/wiki/Minerva_McGonagall#Magical_abilities_and_skills Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nirvana_Nevermind 1,541 Posted November 24, 2016 Share Posted November 24, 2016 Easily the strongest witch in Hogwarts, after all she's the second in command regarding Hogwarts, after Dumbledore of course. And she was the one who led the whole attack against Voldemort in Hogwarts. I mean, she chased Snape away, Dumbledore trusted her a lot, and she became headmistress. So she probably is really strong. I'd say around as strong as Kingsley or Bellatrix. He fled away tho..but ia she could've defeated him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickIaus 1,211 Posted November 24, 2016 Share Posted November 24, 2016 Not as strong as Snape. I'd say stronger than Bellatrix and Kingsley. Those 2 might be more powerful in brute force, but Mcgonagall definitely has more experience and imo is smarter so would be more Wily/sly in how she fights. She'd be inventive, in a similar way to Dumbledore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haus of Tzu:Lai 5,450 Posted November 24, 2016 Share Posted November 24, 2016 I mean, she chased Snape away, Dumbledore trusted her a lot, and she became headmistress. So she probably is really strong. I'd say around as strong as Kingsley or Bellatrix. He fled because he didn't want to battle her. Not that he was scared but that he probably didn't want to hurt her. She is definitely a highly gifted witch, but not above Snape IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ingenting 1,781 Posted November 24, 2016 Share Posted November 24, 2016 Probably the most powerful witch in the series (in the given time period). She survived two wizarding wars as an active opposer of Voldemort, that in itself says something. She did a lot more in the battle of Hogwarts than just duel Snape too. Her intelligence and ability to practice difficult magic like transfiguration effortlessly with precision are probably greater strenghts than her duelling and battle magic though.

dvang 23,884 Posted November 24, 2016 Share Posted November 24, 2016 she's definitely not above Snape Snape was probably the strongest death eater she's pretty strong tho but i can't tell for sure because Molly Weasley was able to beat Bellatrix and i used to think Bellatrix was super strong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mademoiseâ„“â„“e 1,851 Posted November 26, 2016 Share Posted November 26, 2016 Arguably the strongest witch in the series I guess, but not on the level of some well-known wizards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
