I don't see swordfights happening in HP, maybe magical duels for honour and so forth, but not swordfights.

Then again, there ain't much that's scarier than a half insane guy running at you with a hefty, great claymore that's covered in blood . I just want to see Harry charging at people with a fucking big sword in his hands . FOR SPARTA!!!

 

FOR SPARTA!

Mordecai, learning how to use a sword may take a lot of time but how much longer will it take to learn enough spells to actually make a staregy, no matter how unique? Unless you're sticking to basic spells but they are y now a cliche.

 

I like em when used as a plot device or to do something really cool with, but not as a real fighting tool. A random decapitation or something fine, but don't have em dueling nonstop with them.
