5 Spells Severus SNAPE Did Better Than ANYONE Else - Harry Potter Theory
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 лип 2024
- 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.

Thanks for watching folks! What do YOU think Snape's most impressive accomplishment was? Comment down below! ⬇⬇
Self determination
unsupported flight or his occlumency (which was able to trick Voldemort)
Fooling Voldemort.
Also, what was the spell Santos used to “cure” Jacob of The Cruciatus Curse?
Was anything mentioned about the spell?
If you find anything, maybe you could make a video on it…
He played such a good double agent that he fooled Voldemort right up to his death. No one else would have been able to pull that off. NO ONE. And he did it for YEARS. All his other accomplishments could be achieved thru practice and dedication, but playing Voldemort for a fool risks instant death at any time and there are no retry’s and no forgiveness. He died “a faithful servant” to Voldemort, and even then the Dark Lord didn’t WANT to kill him he just thought it was necessary. Master spy work.
Oh dear Harry Potter Folklore I couldn't agree more if I tried if only Severus hadn't been murdered so young (I'm outliving him now every day 😭) if only... he could have been great... TERRIBLE,but GREAT.
This character certainly lead a complex life. I always wished his part had included a few more tender moments. Rickman was a class actor, and known for better parts, but he gave Snape soul. Rest in peace Alan.
So true. He was a great actor, and made snape a perfect character.
In relation to Snapes potions ability, you overlooked that he was the one making the 'werewolf' potion for Lupin because it was also complex.
I was thinking of that one too
Yes, he made it perfectly every time!
he witnessed voldemort flying and figured it out by himself. that is pure talent.
No he didnt
@@PascalLuchs oh? so tom taught him? tom didnt teach anything a day in his life, so unless you are trying to say that snape figured it out without observing it he had to get the idea somewhere.
@@kght222 bellatrix herself said how voldemort tought her all her dark magic so it is very likely he also tought snape
@@kght222 u cant be so passive agressive when u literally have no evidence lol it makes much more sense that voldemort taught him
@@kght222 voldie used to teach deark tricks a lot though😅
I think him just being known as a potions master instead of just a professor like every other teacher speaks miles to his skills.
His name was Professor Snape, so he did have the same title as all the other teachers. Historically, in English schools (particularly independent ones), ‘master’ was just another word for teacher, i.e. school master. Hence Dumbledore was the Headmaster- head of all the teachers.
Potions Master was simply Snape’s job title, just as technically Flitwick was the Charms Master and McGonagall was the Transfiguration Mistress.
But yes, absolutely, he was highly skilled in his field.
'I believe I am the Potions Master at this school'- Snape to Lockhart.
Speaking in Victorian flower language would be Snape's top ability in my point of view.
😂😂 you're not wrong!
Obviously
It was daughter that brought this to my attention I was most impressed with both the fact and that my daughter brought it to my attention
While I agree that Sectumsempra doesn't seem to require an understanding of the spell, I do think intent has to be there. Harry's sole motivation behind casting it is hatred. That's the intent needed. He may not have understood the spell, but Harry had by that point studied magic enough to know emotions, especially powerful emotions fuel spells. And he did have an idea the spell might be nasty as it was labeled in the book as being for enemies. Generally, most people don't have warm and fuzzy feelings for people who they consider enemies.
I don't think it was hatred, though he did hate Draco. Draco went on the attack as soon as he spotted him and Harry simply defended himself, in true Harry fashion, with the first thing that came into his head. He might had known on some level that it was going to be nasty, but I doubt if he had any idea what the outcome would be. Foolish? Yes. Reckless? Certainly. But hateful? No, I don't think so.
Maybe you need to vividly swing your wand and nothing would happen if you just pointed it straight.
I think the difference is that Sectum Sempra TECHNICALLY doesn't DIRECTLY kill anyone, it "only" creates a few holes in them. They died of blood loss - that's like a gunshot wound, a perfectly Muggle cause of death, nothing magical about it.
Snape was, literally, one of the greatest wizards ever. And while stepped wrong at times, he was still great.
This guy Severus Snape was truly the Top 5 most powerful and intelligent wizard in Harry Potter. At least in the Modern wizarding era. Only Behind Dumbledore, Grindelwald, and Voldemort. True that though, he only lived a fraction of the time as the former three, he definitely had some of that innate talent that they had. Combined with his intelligence and focus, which made him a highly skilled wizard. Just imagine had he survived after the war, he would've no doubt probably been the most powerful wizard in the wizarding world. Considering that the former three had also died. McGonagall, Flitwick and Kingsley Shacklebolt are all strong, but Snape could possibly defeat them in a fair duel. He definitely surpassed Slughorn in Potions and possibly other areas as well. His knowledge of the Dark Arts, again surpassed only by none but the big three. Naturally, he is capable of defending himself against Dark Arts as well. He has the Marauders to thank for his years of bullying. It kept him sharp as well as creating several hexes and curses. Hell, he is the one who saved Dumbledore from Voldemort's curse, which would've killed Dumbledore that same night. Snape basically was able to at least stall, the curse long enough to give Dumbledore one more year to survive, and finish the final parts of his plan, and of course, Snape's own part in said plan were crucial at certain points. Basically trusting Snape as much he did Harry, in defeating Voldemort, once for all. In short, love him or hate him for his personality, but he is absolutely brilliant. Being nearly as brilliant as Dumbledore. Only about one or at most two tiers below the big three wizards in terms of overall knowledge and power. 💯
Yepp. 100% agree. Snape's genius was at par with the likes of Dumbledore(He basically outclassed Voldemort's legilimency so I am not even making the comparison). He just didn't live long enough to grow it to its full potential.
Well here's the thing Snape lost his drive to be more powerful at the very young age of 21 when lily died , had e retained his thirst for power and knowledge he very likely would have surpassed voldy or atleast reach his level
'Snape knew more curses than half the kids in seventh year by the time he arrived at Hogwarts'- Sirius.
100 agree with this
Snape can't even fight 4 wizards at same time in Hogwarts 🏫 who was sexually assaulted by James Potter infront of all the students including Lily Evans by showing his private parts to students.
He just removed underpants to insult and humiliate snape. He destroyed him mentally and physically also.
James Potter and Sirius Black both destroyed Severus Snape life at Hogwarts 🏫
Snape was sexually assaulted with spells which is created by himself
James Potter is highly skilled at using snape spells on snape only
First he use Disarming spell to knock the wand of Snape. Then he used levicorpus Spell to make him upside down he use spell which created a soap bubbles in Snape mouth also
He showed private parts of snape to all the students including Lily Evans
And he is master at destroying the friendship of snape and Lilly Evans by taking lily Evans name which made him said mudblood to her in return he was insulted by lily Evans by saying fine if I were you I would have wash my underpants Snivellous 🤣🤣🤣
He was insulted brutally when he was 15 years old only at Hogwarts 🏫
So in the end I will put Snape in 6th place after
1.Albus Dumbledore
2.Gellert Grindlewald
3. Lord Voldemort
4. Minerva Mcgonaal
5. Alastor Moody
6. Severus Snape
Just imagine if Snape had lived after the war, he could have taught Harry some of his skills more effectively.
I would have enjoyed seeing their interactions post war, a good teacher for him too would actually be Draco, who had a lot of the same skills Snape possessed.
@@Nickat-fk8ud
I DON'T THINK DRACO MALFOY
WOULD MAKE A GOOD
TEACHER THOUGH HE HAD
SOME SIMILARITIES TO SNAPE.
HE WAS BROUGHT UP
HATING MUGGLES + HATED
HARRY. DRACO ONLY TRANSFORMED AFTER HE
MARRIED ASTORIA THAN
HAD TO BRING UP HIS SON AS
A SINGLE FATHER. BFORE
THOSE THINGS HAPPENED
IF HE HAD BCOME BFORE
THAT HE WOULD HAVE.
PERHAPS WRECKED THE
LIVES OF SOME OF HIS PUPILS
EACH YEAR.
@@smokedclausage Wdym lol, he literally died in front of Harry's eyes
@@gabinathan5499 I don't think Malfoy pre Asoria would have made a good professor, but as a personal teacher to Harry, he possessed a lot of similar skills that Snape had. If there was a threat big enough post Voldy, then I think Malfoy could have been that secret teacher for Harry.
I have a feeling that both of them would have avoided contact after perhaps nodding to each other in the Great Hall.
Snape rewrote a newt level course while he was studying at the same level. And potions wasn't even his top specialty. He was arguably more adept at Dark arts and occlumency. If he had lived to be as old as Dumbledore or Voldemort he may also have been an era defining genius like them.
When Dumbledore asked Snape, "And what will you give me in return, Severus?" and he replied "Anything", Severus had to tell him about his Occlumency abilities, and Dumbledore had to check it out. I am curious about Dumbledore's reaction to Snape's high abilities.
There's also the fact that he fought (albeit without much intent) Minerva McGonagall (a very accomplished and powerful wizard on her own) and Filius Flitwick (World Dueling Champion and very talented in all sorts of charms and spells; and was holding his own against them.
Severus Snape's very difficult character he was always solitary and deeply misundendood and his love to Lily after years is so touching. R.I.P. Alan Rickman thank you for wonderful expression of Severus Snape.
I like to believe he fooled them all. Took a potion just before meeting Voldemort, quickly passed on his memories then faked his death. He's probably living on a beach somewhere tropical enjoying retirement and free from serving two cruel masters. Say what you will people but Dumbledore was just as much of a user as Riddle was.
@@katholmes7112 i agree it would be good and fair enough)
You know it. 😊
90% of why people like Snape so much is cause Rickman's perfect portrayal and toning down of book Snape's worst actions. I see his "love" for Lilly more as creepy obsession, also doubt he would have turned back from Voldemort, if she wasn't in danger/killed (but just her, not her family).
@@Bruced82 if Lily wasn't killed he would't understand his fault (it reminded me Dumbledore he changed his mind after tragic accident with his sister) and it would be another story not about Harry i disagree with "creepy obsession" Severus Snape's logical person and lonly. his love made him chosing right side. I don't know what it was but he wasn't sick and i can't imagine when everyone thinks that you're betrator and murder and you had to do this becose promised it. In sum to each his own.
Yes yes Snape is my favorite character
Same.
He also showed great love, courage, honesty, developed personal change for the good and he was loyal .
I so agree. Snape 100% had the potential to be up there with Dumbledore with more experience. He already mastered multiple complex magics like legilimency, flight, occlumency, potionmaking beyond expert level, creating spells and im sure even his understanding of the dark arts.
I guess that the main reason J.K. Rowling didn't have Snape be the author of the potions text was that she would have had to redo the plot of the Halfblood Prince. He was also an excellent duelist. Consider how adeptly he parried McGonagall's attacks in part two of the Deathly Hallows.
On top of reflecting McGonagall's spells at the deatheaters.
I remember reading from Rowling that Snape was a master duelist. He gave Harry what became his favorite spell during the "class on dueling" without anyone knowing his intent was to teach Harry, no matter how hard headed Harry was. Snape was protecting McGonigall while at the same time "holding her off." He defeated the Carrows who were behind him, about to fight Prof. McGonigall. Then, before he left through the window to fly away he picked up their wands. I wish McGonigall could have been shown after the battle as Harry spoke to her about Severus, letting her know how Severus had protected her, that he had worked with Dumbledore to protect the children, help Harry, and defeat the Dark Lord. And Harry, getting a portrait hung of Snape. I would have loved to see her face.
Although Alan Rickman was the perfect snape. I always forget snape was 38 at age of death because Rickman was so much older then snape.
I also wish he could have led a longer life.
His story is so sad and he never knew that Harry wasn't going to die after all, when he faces Voldemort for the last time. As Dumbledore told him that 'the boy' had to die, because of the unwanted horcrux inside of him. Snape was so upset about this and really wanted Harry to live for Lily's sake and he never knew all his efforts were not in vain...
I never through Vulnera Sanentur was invented by Snape, and it was never implied that it was. It’s probably just a powerful wound healing spell invented a long time ago, which both Grindelwald and Snape learned but did not invent.
There is no Vulnera Sanentur in the books. This is purely a movie invention.
I’ll be honest I’ve been looking forward to this!! Awesome video HP theory thanks 😎
What is more powerful than Snape’s magic? The ability to make nearly 600 videos about a single 20+ year old young adult franchise. Impressive.
There is still a lot to discuss like how long are the tables in Great Hall. The possibilities are infinite and only sky is the limit.
One thing that bugged me with the Half Blood Prince potion book is that Harry hides it away, presumably never to be used again. That was just stupid, IMO. Yes, one of the spells turns out to be a bit nasty (two, if you could levicorpus but that's more on the order of a kind of mean, kind of funny practical joke, not likely to be deadly), but that's labeled as being unfriendly, even if it's not explicitly stated what it does. Harry was just a bit stupid to use an unknown spell on a fellow student (or really, not testing it before using it on someone else as a rule), even if it was in the heat of the moment. The potion book is a treasure trove for any potion maker, and it's frankly a terrible loss that no-one else will benefit from it. It could have very nearly revolutionized potion making in the wizarding world, if a book was printed with its instructions instead.
The comparison to the Riddle Diary that some of the characters made is just asinine. Again, it has some dodgy original spells, but it's hardly a brainwashing, sentient magical item with a fragment of the soul of one of the darkest wizards in history.
Agreed
I am so happy I got to this video fast I’ve been wanting another snape video
It’s very unlikely Snape invented Vulnera Senentur as Grindelwald used it years before Snape is even a student. Could be that the said healing charm already existed and Snape only found out that it’s a perfect counter spell for Sectumsempra.
Or maybe Snape created a counter spell for Vulnera Senentur which lead to the creation of Sectumsempra
I had a similar thought. Not that he necessarily created Sectum Sempra as a counter to Vulnera Senentur per se, but that he created it with Vulnera in mind as being the counter; which, for me would be even more impressive, as it implies an added layer of complexity, as well as a very deep understanding of Vulnera Senentur.
@@Ghost_Os Or Rolling just can't figure out her time line. It would not be the first time.
No actually vulnera sanentur is a healing spell that existed before , for counteracting sectumsempra the spell needed to be chanted in a song like manner which Snape figure out on his own
@@alannajones330 "pRoFeSsOr mCgOnAgAlL, LeStRaNgE hAs dOnE iT AgAiN"
I think the reason Harry was so able to easily curse Malfoy with the Sectum sempra curse was that Snape had written that it was "for enemies", and Harry most definitely viewed Malfoy as an enemy, so like what Bellatrix had told Harry in the Ministry of Magic with the Unforgivable Curses, you had to mean them. So I think that's why Harry pulled it off so easily.
I love your Snape videos so much! And I can't agree more with this one - I wish he had lived longer and had been able to show his full potential, become the most powerful wizard... sounds right to me.
I'm so happy I found this channel!!!
Wont let you forget when in the 1st book (when harmione and harry are trying to get the sorcerer's stone) Every teachers made an enchanment inorder to enter that place (seems like an obstacle courses, idk how to explain) All the professors used magic and ONLY Snape used LOGIC instead of magic because he knew that wizards and witches are REALLY BAD at logic. His enchantment is last because it was the hardest and will literally kill someone at one wrong move (based on harmione) And I can't stop thinking about how SMART that is!! I mean!?? HE'S AMAZING!!!
Mr Rickman was Snape … I love him in the series…. I wish they would have shown more of him…
Off topic, you know what I cannot ever get my head around is that hermione never recognised snape handwriting
Or that Slughorn never recognized Snape's methods.
@@cjg8763 He could've possibly wrote most of the notes post graduating from Hogwarts.
@@raymondben36466 fair enough
She knew but never told Harry, he was too happy with Prof. Snape as a friend.
Severus, you are a hero. 😭
Great job!
Hey Harry Potter theory do What If Voldemort Won how would all Countries React!
Yeahh
imagine if snape had a kid, and left his half blood prince book to them AND his wand
Love your videos ❤️
Severus Snape lives!!🐍
I’m new to this channel and I’m enjoying what I find
All of what you chose is very good and correct. As for Volnera Senantor I think it was created even before Grindelwald and live thru hundreds of years. Snape just brought it to another level that's all. Severus had more magical talent than half the 7th year students in his 1st year. Which means that his mother Eileen must have taught him many spells and curses, she might have even taught him the Volnera Senantor. Also you forgot to mention that Occlumency is effective as defense against the Impirius Curse.
And snape is also a product of depression and P TSD as well.
Agreed on the list. Snape died because of Voldemot's ignorance about the Elder Wand. There was no need for Snape to die Snape is dead, unfortunately. Alan Rickman stole the scenes. Can't believe he's gone. Fantastic actor.
I think the healing charm was probably around for a long time as there was alot of conflict which wizards got involved with.
Snape's occlumensy is not better than everyone tho. There's an old dude who had been locked up, with no wands, magic experience rotten, for DECADES, who accomplished Snape's feat in blocking Voldermort's legilimency. And his name was Gellert Grindelwald
I mean Grindelwald is literally the second darkest wizard of all time. He being able to do something doesn't mean everyone can.
I can't be the only one watching this thinking, "you could only come up with 5?!" Snape is hands down the MOST underrated wizard mainly (imo) because he was a double agent and met with TONS of hate for that. But really he had more power and potential than like 95% of Rowlings universe for... the reasons here... and many MANY more.
If I remember correctly, he was also one of the few who could wield magick without a wand.
I don't really agree if Snape had lived, he would have become more powerful than Dumbledore, Dumbledore was regarded the most powerful Wizard for pretty much his entire life, certainly at a much younger age than Snape was when he died. Snape is powerful, but Dumbledore was at a whole other level.
I don’t know about power but u gotta agree snape has the most style and is the most badass in the whole series
A fanfiction on what if the Golden trio allowed Lupin to accompany them would be interesting.
I just finished the audiobook of Order of the Phoenix again, and sectum sempra appears there in the pensive when Snape fights back with James. It’s a nonverbal but he points his wand at James who gets a cut cheek.
Dumbledore "Get me Severus."
Voldemort "Where is Severus, I need him"
Your a legend
What was life like for Argus Filch under lord Voldemort when he took over the school
3:12 there is intent. Snape explicitly gave it intent in the textbook. Harry recognized Draco as his "enemy". At the time that Snape created his spell his "enemies" were not unlike Malfoy. They were bullies, people whose existence seem to only cause trouble for the caster.. The intent was there so the spell worked.. Its also why Harry was able to cast it against Snape.
I like it how the half blood prince's book creates an unknowing relationship between Harry and Snape within the same book that you "learn" that Snape is bad.
It foreshadows that Snape is a good guy when Harry says he has a feeling this dude is not evil.
What do you think would happen if you used the hair of a dead person and your polyjuice potion? Would it still work or does the person that you're transforming into need to be alive.
That is actually a very interesting question. Would the drinker turned into corpse-like body or just mimic the looks of when the person still alive?
You need the person to be alive. This is why Barty Crouch Jr kept Moody imprisoned and alive. Otherwise it won't work.
@@MQhelper I thought he kept him alive to question him so as to be able to better act like the real Moody. Also he wanted to keep cutting his hair. What if you only wanted to do it once?
@@johnwick8756 He mostly wanted to further harvest his hair, but keeping him for info isnt out of the question either!
As for the 'keep cutting his hair' part, I'm pretty sure it's due to the limited supply and time limit on the potion itself. Snape noticed his personal potion supplies stolen gradually over time after all.
One strand of hair isn't enough if you wanted to disguise yourself as long as Barty Jr did.
Video idea: Could protago Diabolaga kill/burn a dementor?
4th place is still amazing!
1 Dumbledore
2 Grindelwald
3 Voldemort
4 Snape
Yes I do agree with this list but I also wish you lived longer to find out what he came up with a snap is one of my favourite characters in the Harry Potter
When Harry was hit by the septumsepra spell he wasn't bleeding.
Given that Grindelwald was seen using that spell I believe he was the original creator. Then, after Snape created, Sectumsempra, Dumbledore wanted him to have a way out of a big mess, so he taught Snape that spell.
Please make a video on Severus Snape vs James Potter, who would win?
Severus snape obvio
Pretty sure in the Secrets of the Dumbledore, that Grindelwalds acolytes are flying chasing Newt in the forest in the Quiln scene
I think Snape could've made alot of money if he made released his own potions book and released research papers
Why did the video end on that question? The fact that Gridelwald used it already proves that Snape didn't invent it.
This is a scene from a canon movie Vs. a fan theory, a widely believed fan theory but a fan theory, nonetheless.
HP Theory: here's a thought. How about a video on whether Snape could have survived Nagini's attack. You've said obliquely in another video that you think he could, with anti-venin, but why and how? If Nagini hit either the jugular vein or the carotid artery he would certainly not have survived, anti-venin or no; he bled out too quickly either way.
Also an antidote to Nagini's venom is a tricky thing. It took St. Mungo's staff considerable amount of time to figure it out a create, when they were healing Arthur Weasly. So it's not something obvious. Though I suppose Order of the Phoenix most likely learned about it then for future possible occurrences.
@@stormmaster108 Granted. But I'm not sure that would have saved him, given the speed with which he exsanguinated. If an attacker gets either of those blood vessles it's curtains very fast, whether you're a wizard or no.
Snape probably didn't have access to the antivenom created by St Mungo's (reverse Deus ex machina), and the venom has an extremely strong natural anticoagulant in it. Hit the carotid, which I think Nagini probably did, and it's farewell. 😢
I just had a huge thought does this mean Couse Harry was carrying part of Voldemort that Harry was able to produce a patronus charm in his third year
No it was because he was highly motivated, seeing as he was being constantly attacked by Dementors.
Gotta say snape is truly amazing.
In my view you are one of the few Harry Potter fan and/or theorists whose knowledge of magic and the magical world that JK Rowling has created. With each new video you make a fresh approach toward content that is is well rounded and edging ever closer to completeness. I stand in full admiration of the fact that you are able to put forth your theories of the Wizarding world and their human inhabitants so succinctly, yet, artfully. Add to this the person (Witch and/or wizard) type comparitive series of videos that you have made or a series of videos often focusing on (with mounting surprise each time !) Severus Snape, my all time favourite magical person and Wizard of the Wizarding World. Period (yes - even surpassing my growing admiration for the person and powerful wizard and wonderful man that was Albus Dumbledore). With so many other characters and then readers either always sneering at Snape or mocking him or suggesting that he was incapable expressing tenderness: The loss his THEIRS and not Professor Snape's. The merest hint of a smile hid in the curve of a lip and eyes that would unexpectedly widen slightly and relax the crease frown line between his eyes. When Snape was trying to teach Harry occlumency I could truly see why he was so fierce in tutoring Potter. He was truly concerned for what the Dark Lord could do once he infiltraded and unhinginged a victim''s mind. A sense of urgency and concern fuelled Snape to do whatever he had to do to shake Potter up to realize what serious danger he was in and help him prepare for what or who Potter might face in future. Snape was ALWAYS protecting Potter and Alan Rickman himself ALWAYS understood Snape so brilliantly because they might have had so much in common JUST under the surface of it all....
Question: Why didn't Snape publish his revisions on Advanced Potion Making?
He probably wasn't finished revising everything in the book.
Have you even done snapes family lineage be cool to know
Wolf's bane potion is tricky to make...
what if you're wrong about sectum sempra? what if it does require intent like the cruciatus curse. What it we've only seen the weekend version like Harry's weakened cruciatus.... Snape was a great wizard. This is curse is dark and deadly.
7:48 did *snape* invent levicorpus? I thought that one was one of the marauders and since it got used on him, snape created a counter charm?
Snape invented the spell I don't know how and when the great James James learned it, that the spell was invented by James, I created it Harry, that's why for a moment he believed that. mongrel prince was his father, that's why when harry casts the spell on severus he tells him you too use my spells against me
" You dare use my own spell agents me I who invented it yes Potter I'm the Half-Blood Prince!!!!!"
Question I always ask is: Why doesn't any of these world class wizards have stockpiles of liquid luck on tap? Especially the half-blood prince himself
I think Slughorn said it best, "Very tricky to make, disastrous should you get it wrong". He also stated that only very few wizards ever succeeded in making it.
By far the best character
Vulnera sanentur was not his invention.. in Preqel Secrets of Dumbledore Grindelwald is seen to be using it on the Supposedly dead Qilin cub. And now i wonder of he had originally used Sectumsempra on the Qilin cub in the first place. In that case it won't be Shape's own spell.
… which goes to show that Harry Potter really was an extraordinary wizard, because he as a teenager was able to penetrate Snape’s mind, a feat the Dark Lord could never pull off. And it is also my belief that Snape was aware of Harry’s presence at the time of his death.
Harry penetrating Snape's mind happened only in the movie though, which kind of contradicts Snape being a master of occlumency. In the book, Harry saw Snape's memory in the pensieve
Video idea for you to do:
What additional effects do spells have that are not seen in the movies? For instance, what else can the patronus charm do besides ward off dementors?
I have a question about unsupported flight. The Deatheaters and members of the Order of the Phoenix seemed to be able to fly around as "smoke" in the battle of the ministry. Also the Deatheaters flew around as smoke when they attacked a bridge in London. Is that somehow different to the unsupported flight you mention here? The film made it look fairly easy to fly like that if you know what you're doing and the only difference I see is that Snape didn't transform into a whisp of smoke when he escaped from Minerva... In the scenes where Voldemort flies he sometimes "smokes out" and sometimes doesn't which made me believe the abilities are somehow related. Also, if "senior members" of the order could do it, why didn't Minerva follow Snape this way when he flew out of the window. I always thought that when you're in the order or a Deatheater, sooner or later a senior will tell you "this is how you do it, great trick, try it!"... I'm confused
In the movies all the death eaters could fly without brooms, but in the books it was only Voldemort and Snape.
I just considered it Disapparation.
The smoke was Apparition; white smoke for the Order, black for the Death Eaters.
he was one of the most op spell casters out there dumbledor tom riddle magonigal hermine molly are a few others
Dumbledore, Grindlewald and Voldemort are way higher then the next. That doesn't mean that they are the best at everything, just in general.
Loved
Snape would be my favourite,ALWAYS
2 questions…..1. Did Voldemort possibly use a well-honed Sectumsempra to cut Snape’s throat? One would think that mastery of Sectumsempra would involve the ability to control how the victim’s body is cut, which could explain the extent of the effects the spell had when Harry brazenly flung the spell at Draco. Voldemort learns the spell from Snape, perfects it and then kills him with it?
2. Knowing Dumbledore’s plan and all, did Snape plant his copy of the Potions textbook for Harry to find? Like, is it confirmed anywhere or is it just implied? I 100% believe he did, but if that’s true then, what if Ron ended up with it instead? Would Harry’s fame alone been enough to get “collected” had he not had the cheat codes?
If you read DH you will see that Nagini killed Snape following the command from her master. He had waved the Elder Wand at Snape, which had not worked. "And Voldemort swiped the air with the Elder Wand. It did nothing to Snape, who for a split second seemed to think he had been reprieved: but then Voldemort's intention became clear. The snake's cage was rolling through the air, and before Snape could do anything more than yell, it had encased him, head and shoulders, and Voldemort spoke in Parseltongue.
"Kill."
There was a terrible scream."
@@kyleethekelt thanks. I never got that far. I read the books up thru Order of the Phoenix but never had access to the rest unfortunately. We were poor and I had to borrow from my gf at the time, So past that all I know is the films.
@@lsemaldokhar4154 Sure; I quite identify, growing up not being able to own books. However, the school Braille library was my friend back then - not that HP was a twinkle in anyone's eye at that time. I'm of a similar age to JKR. Perhaps, if you have access to a local public library where you are, that would be a free or low-cost way of reading the books. Old school, I know, but effective.
@@kyleethekelt the library had a waiting list for their HP books and they often had to order new copies so they were never available to check out 🙁
@@kyleethekelt I read Deathly Hallows 12 years ago so I might not really remember some scenes. But reading the scene from your comments, I have to admit that Snape's death in the movie was more elegant than the book. I mean, I remembered an art in the deviantart showing how comedical his death was in the book.
Yes, Severus suddenly knew Voldemort's murderous intention. But I think he should've been able to avoid the incoming rolling cage. Well unless the cage moves too fast for him to react
Does anyone know what happened to Snape"s body.?
I have a question... why Harmonie didn't use the fixing spell that she used to fix Harry's glasses at the first part to fix Ron wand?
They tried fixing Ron's wand using magic. It didn't work.
I think Oculus Reparo only fixes glasses. And the Elder Wand is apparently the only wand that can be used to fix a broken wand.
Brilliant professor Snape.
Always

@@timothyskidmore1554 omg. Now you'd make me wanna watch that movie again 🤧
Can I ask a dumb question to you initiated Ive only recently taken a a interest to Harry Potter . Can you use multiple spells charms and hexes at the same time or is there wizards and witches that have done this and I have just missed it ? Thanks in advance please go easy on me lol
By my understanding you can‘t cast two spells at the same time. You could cast one after one at a high speed but never 2 at the same. I would say this is proven when Dumbledore is attacked by Malfoy in the Halfblood Prince Dumbledore uses a paralyze spell on Harry instead of protecting himself vs Malfoy. If casting 2 spells at one instance would be possible, who else could have made it, if not dumbledore

I firmly believe that liquid luck isn't actually a luck potion, but a charisma potion.
Do you think Snape could hide his thoughts from Queenie? She was a born legilimens. Can Queenie be a stronger legilimens than Voldemort?
so... were the spells he made of lifting people up and dropping them the same that James used to bully him. If thats true, James is the most BASED sports jock in existence.
I think I'd rank Snape as 4th most powerful witch/wizard in harry potter.
1st Dumbledore
2nd Grindlewald.
3rd Voldemort.
and 4th Severus Snape.
As much as I rail against Snape as far as the assertion of him being a true good guy at the end of the series considering his motivations for why he changed allegiances, I am a major fan of how talented he was at both light and dark magic in the series as well as how he made so many of these spells. I really don't care for any of the Snape heads in the comment section here want to get mad at me for saying that I still think of him as nothing but a man who bullies students and a crazy obsessed stalker when it comes to Lily, but I will at least relent in the regard of his magical prowess.
this spells with we know snape create in school, how many spells he could create but never use, thats intresting
I don't understand why Snape didn't publish his own textbook... If he knew better methods for most potions why was he teaching an inferior one?
Is it weird that I'm a gryphyndor fan but my favorite wizard is Snape?
I think it was a waste to hide Snapes book, they at least could've copied the improved potion recipes
I been saying they need to do a Tom Riddle origins movie or a Snape origin movie nobody wants to see no damn Harry Potter Reboot.
Didn’t the Order of the Phoenix show members of the order flying unsupported in the battle of the ministry? In the death room the order came in balls of light that looked a bit like the unsupported flight.
That's the FILM - in the book only Snape and Voldemort can do it
I think that's the film version of apparition. The books never imply that people are visible in the process of apparition, or even that it takes any time at all.
@@darajeeling yeah I know but I was wondering if there was perhaps an explanation for the movie’s visuals.

You forgot his ability to be creepy scary. People might think you're (5 minutes later) up to something.
