The 5 Most Powerful RAVENCLAWS in Harry Potter (RANKED)

Hey everyone ! Welcome to another installment of Harry Potter Theory! In this video we’re going to be discussing the 5 most powerful witches and wizards that came from Ravenclaw house. I’ve covered the other 3 houses in previous videos, so make sure to check those out as well.

Ravenclaw is best introduced in the Sorting Hat’s own words:

"Or yet in wise old Ravenclaw,
If you've a ready mind,
Where those of wit and learning,
Will always find their kind."

Each of the four houses are known for their unique and defining characteristcs. Hufflepuffs are known for their loyalty and hard-work, Gryffindors for their bravery, and Slytherins for their cunning. So, how about Ravenclaw? What are they known for? The answer of course relates to knowledge and wisdom. While Hufflepuff and Gryffindor get all of the glory, Ravenclaw has produced some of the most powerful and talented witches and wizards ever to grace the wizarding world.

Now, if you know Hogwarts history, which you should, then you will know that Hogwarts had four founders, Rowena Ravenclaw, Salazar Slytherin, Helga Hufflepuff, and Godric Gryffindor.

The 4 founders enchanted a hat, the sorting hat, a hat that would allocate students to each of the 4 houses.

After the student places the hat on their head, it begins to analyze their mind and places them in a house based on how closely they resemble one of the four founders. Gryffindor valued bravery, Ravenclaw valued intelligence, Hufflepuff valued hard work, and Slytherin valued aspirations for power.

With that in mind, let’s take a look at the 5 most powerful witches and wizards of Ravenclaw.
