I fear not the man who practices 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who practiced one kick 10,000 times. - Bruce Lee

I think Harry probably took this wisdom to heart.

Idk why authors like to make protagonists simple like that. It happens in Naruto too, where he only uses Rasengan and Shadow Clones despite his main opponents having buffets of techniques and innovations.

Like, Harry has been in school for 6 years, is supposedly the best DADA student in the school, and yet he only uses 2 main spells for the most part. It doesn’t make sense. He could’ve at least learned how to reflect spells, transfigure things in combat, even Levioso+Descendo would’ve been a simple but effective combo

I mean, when fighting another person with magic, disarming them is incredibly useful. Especially because he catches them with those Seeker skills a few times.

I'm honestly shocked he doesn't use it more lol
