Jedi vs Wizards and Witches from Harry Potter!!

[Sheilawisz]

Following Ankari's successful poll about a fanfictional encounter between Fantasy universes, I wanted to start my own thread to decide who would win a battle between these two: The mighty Jedi from Star Wars vs the quite underrated Wizards and Witches from Harry Potter!!

The idea is to have a certain number of well-trained Jedi fighting a large number of equally well-trained adult Wizards and Witches, the fight taking place perhaps somewhere like a forest at night... so, please analyze the situation and start sharing your opinion =)

There is no way someone is going to vote for Harry Potter Wizards if they thought the Aes Sedai would get slaughtered by Jedi. Aes Sedai would eat the entire school of Harry Potter's world with every student from the first to the last in it.

Yeah, I got a chip on my shoulder.

Well, the Wizards and Witches from the Harry Potter series are underrated about how powerful and deadly they really are: Very few people reading the books analyze their powers in a deeper and darker way, and if you think about it, you can soon discover countless ways that they could inflict terrible things or kill their enemies- It would depend on their imagination, really, and how cruel they want to be!!

Let's analyze my first point:

1- The Wizards can create an "invisible and irresistible force" that they can use to lift objects or people into the air and also force people to stay in a position or move against their will- We don't know how powerful this force can be, but the books say "irresistible" so this particular power might counter the Jedi's Force attacks =)

2- Transfiguration: What would be the psychological impact for a Jedi after he or she witnesses another Jedi getting transformed into a ferret, a clock or a glass bottle?? How could the Jedi protect themselves from Transfiguration attacks, which are really fast??

Ahem.

As much as I love Star Wars, the Jedi as depicted in the prequel trilogy and Clone Wars are morons. Wizards would win.

Exactly what I was thinking... "I have high ground. You have lost." hahahah.

@Mindfire: That video is so freaking funny!!! Thanks, I was laughing through the whole thing... well, what Luke can do in the movies and what Harry can do in the books does not reflect accurately what well-trained Jedi and Wizards/Witches can do =)

@Benjamin: Yeah, this is not about some super-powerful Force users capable of tearing apart planets and destroying reality: My idea is about average (though well-trained) Jedi vs equally well-trained Wizards and Witches... I also think that the Jedi would be facing more than a challenge here!!

Are you serious? Clone Wars? By Genndy Tartakovsky? Probably the greatest Star Wars related thing of all time? Which features some of the most awesomely overpowered Jedi of all time (with the exception of The Force Unleashed, which was similarly overpowered but not quite as epic)?

Show me a wizard who can solo an entire droid army, lift and pull entire starships, and unleash enough electricity to power a city block. THEN I'll be impressed, and not before.

No, I meant Star Wars: The Clone Wars. In which the Jedi are routinely morons.

Ohhhh. That makes a lot more sense. lol
