User blog comment:Marcus Forelli/Harry Dresden vs John Constantine/@comment-5795750-20130205121813

I wanted Dresden to win this, but after reviewing their stats for this battle, I reckon I am going to have to give this to John Constantine. Dresden is a very powerful magician but he needs to mutter his spells in order to use them, while John can just... think of a trick and then use it. Also, while Harry has a lot of offensive spells, John's magical spells (especially the occlumency, synchronicity and illusion ones) easily trump Dresden's abilities and he knows how wizardry works so he can easily find way to counter the offensive spells Dresden can pull off. Plus, John has armour (the trenchcoat), regenerative healing powers (the Demon blood) and a finishing move to boot whereas Harry has just the armour (the bracelet). One thing I may want to point out and ask is: which person can cast successive spells faster because I reckon that would be important in deciding the winner?

Also, most of Harry's weapons and non-magical items might be rendered useless thanks to John's magic attacks.
