*most powerful spell kills upon striking

*is also clearly visible, dodgeable, and deflectable

It's not the most powerful, it's the most illegal. It doesn't get used at all when Dumbledore and Voldemort duel, because they're both too powerful to lose to it.

What am I doing defending these books? I hate them! Alright, lemme mention that Cho Chang is a racist nonsense name to balance my defence out.

An asian character named Cho Chang? That's terrible! That's like if there was a redheaded Irish character named Seamus Finnigan, or something...

At least those are two Irish names. Cho Chang is a nonsense name. It's like calling a European character "Jackson Esparza". Bauer O'Brien. Ferdinand Thörson.
