Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today we're discussing Hogwarts Potions Professor, and later Headmaster Severus Snape, and his most powerful spells and abilities. Now, one thing that I want to mention right out of the gate is that Snape is one of the most powerful wizards in the wizarding world- and what was most impressive about him is that he wasn’t even that old when he died. Snape died at the tender age of 38, and though he wasn’t quite at the level of Voldemort or Dumbledore, he was getting there- and had he been around for a few decades longer, I think that Snape may just have had a shot at being the most powerful wizard ever. Unfortunately, we’ll never know, and though I’m sure he had the potential to achieve insurmountable levels of power, realistically he did ultimately fall short of besting the likes of Voldemort and Dumbledore. With all of that being said, however, Snape was still amazing, and I feel like sometimes he’s a little underrated. Throughout the series, time and time again Snape showcases spells and abilities that are difficult to conjure and often unique. He’s also a well-rounded wizard because he was never afraid of venturing in to experimentation with the dark arts- he knows the good spells, and the more sinister spells- he knows it all. Snape is a testament to what can be achieved if you’re really dedicated to something. As a student, Snape always had his head in the books, continually learning and progressing. He was focused, and he didn’t let temporary satisfaction get in the way of achieving more- learning more. Though he had a segue down a dark path, the result of bullying and the loss of his friendship with Lily, Snape only used his hatred for the Marauders as fuel- it gave him the drive and the motivation to be more, to do more. And today, we’re going to be diving in and looking at Snapes 5 most powerful spells and abilities. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
