Gandalf has a sword and a stick(in which he does little magic). Gandalf, although a wizard, does about 1/10th the magic that Albus Dumbledore does in the series(based purely off of the movies).

The fight between Voldemort and Dumbledore is enough to show that he would win. He creates a giant shield out of water to protect himself. Look at Voldemort as Gandalf(since he returns from death). Gandalf(Voldemort) had no chance of killing Dumbledore, and he knows it.

Gandalf would actually have to use magic to defeat Dumbledore, and from the magic vs magic there is no way Dumbledore doesn't counter it and just blank Gandalf.

Do you think Gandalf would have been killed by Snape? Hell even a GD Balrog couldn't best Gandalf. Do you see Snape or Albus besting a Balrog.


I think not. Move along, nothing to see here.

Although not a real fair comparison since Gandalf wasn't human.

Did you even read the book? Because if you did, this is a stupid fricking post.

What makes Dumbledore great has absolutely nothing to do with his magical powers.

But if these 2 are strictly fighting and I would have to pick a winner, sadly it would be Gandalf.

I've read both multiple times. Gandalf could easily take him down. Plus Gandalf isn't even human, which gives him a nice advantage.

Well, I think the only people choosing Dumbledore are pansies who likely wore costumes for Harry Potter book release parties. Dumbledore is for pansies. Gandalf is a true badass

This isn't a fair fight really. Dumbledore is a mortal and Gandalf is like a lesser god. That said, Dumbledore did like 100x the magic Gandalf ever did. So I think Dumbledore wins.

Let's see. Dumbledore is human and dies.

Gandalf is one of the Maiar. He is of divine origin, existed before Creation, and is immortal. He was sent to Middle Earth to combat Sauron.

I don't think it is much of a contest.

Gandalf murdered this hell spawn, seemingly just for the hell of it:



What's Dumbledore taken on? Mortals, Zombies, and thats it? Developing uses of dragon's blood?

That facebook post broke it down perfectly. I know nothing about Dumbledore, but I have no doubt that Gandalf would own him



This.


I was going to post something similar to that facebook post, but a lot less badass and conclusive.

But Gandalf the White in a landslide.

Gandalf would kick that toy selling effeminate momma's boy cartoon caricature's arse.

Gandalf is the "Wizard" all others are copied from. Dumbledore is the Disney World version.
