> Otherwise Dumbledore might not have been the master of the elder wand at all (which would explain why he didn't defeat Voldemort despite being 'the strongest wizard AND in possession of the Elder wand in the Battle inside the Ministry, book five).
 




Lottie:
 I always thought Dumbledore could defeat LV if he truly wanted to but he would have to use dark magic or something morally corrupt. Doesn't McGonagall say something in a conversation with DD, about who was more powerful and she says DD was "too noble to use the powers LV has." I'm not sure but my thoughts were DD could physically defeat him but the cost would be too high and DD thought he would just be the next Dark Lord. (Because DD cannot be trusted with power.)
