Jedi vs Wizards and Witches from Harry Potter!!

[Sheilawisz]

With a total Wizarding population somewhere in the millions, armies of tens of thousands of Aurors are plausible.

Sure that the Wizards and Witches would open strong and hold the upper hand at first, which is enough to win the single battle that this thread is about =)

Um... single battles can go on for days, and I'm pretty sure this one could last for at least a week.

Who'd you put in so far?

Look at the Fantasy Character Death Match thread here in the chit-chat forum. There's a list of them. I have 15. Want to get 20 to start the contest

I added some to your list. Take a look!

Jedi would win. Again you're dealing with a universe in which force-users can lay waste to entire planets. So assuming we're talking about the most powerful individuals in the lore of either side, the Potter wizards and witches would get their butts kicked.

It depends on the circumstances, though. Just because Jedi A can lay waste to a whole planet doesn't mean a wizard couldn't turn him into a newt in a fraction of a second first. The giant planet-destroying Force Storms and such are depicted as events taking a relatively long time: minutes, hours. Avada Kedavra can kill you in less than a second.

This is true. Which is why I think a Jedi victory is not going to depend on some grand application of raw force power. In a situation like this, those abilities are moot unless you have the required prep time. I think rather a Jedi victory is going to depend on their ingenuity, adaptability, top notch training, and versatile skill set.

Thanks, Benjamin!! It seems that we have already presented a good description of the Wizarding powers and skills, and given proof as well that they are dangerous, worthy opponents even for the Jedi Knights. Too bad that nobody else has voted for the Wizards and Witches, but I am very happy with this thread anyway =)

Well, just as I promised now I present the secret weapon that the Wizards bring to the battle... Are you ready? Now behold... the absolutely lethal Fleur Isabelle Delacour!!

The scenario is like this:

Fleur apparates in the forest where she meets the enemy, and then all the male Jedi see her, go crazy for her and start arguing with each other to be the first to ask Fleur on a date!! Meanwhile, the female Jedi are getting furious and jealous because she's so beautiful and men simply fall at her feet- They are thinking of a thousand different ways to kill Fleur, every one of them more painful than the other...

The Jedi are distracted, then the rest of the Wizards and Witches attack by surprise and the battle is over in about twenty seconds! XD!!

Now, the Jedi never saw that one coming...

But... Jedi reject attachment and romantic love. Some even forego basic sexual attraction. And jealousy is pretty much the antithesis of Jedi philosophy and training. That trick would work on a Sith- EASILY in fact, but a Jedi? I have my doubts.

One enterprising Jedi retains her wits and does a mind trick on Fleur, making her believe that she is garbed in a decidedly unfashionable polyester pantsuit. Shrieking in terror at the fashion faux paus, Fleur dashes from the clearing. This snaps all of the crazed Jedi out of their delirium just time to signal the battalion of clone troopers shielded in the forest. The wizards and witches enter the clearing to find Fleur gone, the Jedi facing them. And, unbeknownst to them, a the force of clone troopers is drawing the circle closed. They wizards are like a piece of fragile glass caught between a hammer and anvil

[Sheilawisz]

Sure, but Fleur's attraction skills are fueled by her Veela Magic and it's difficult to fight it off: The Jedi could become immune to her after a few minutes, which still gives enough time for the rest of the Wizarding forces to attack by surprise and win!! =)

This was kind of a joke, really, but it would be fun to see it...
