Ranking The Owl House Covens From Weakest to Strongest!

1:19 - 2:09 I also feel like characters such Eda, Lilith, & Boscha imply that the Potions track is used as the Boiling Isles' equivalent to undecided majors for people who either don't have a future goal, who use the track as a placeholder for joining the Emperor's Coven, or who have career goals that don't heavily involve using magic. Barkus & Edric are the only Potions track students who’ve actually shown taking potion magic seriously

[@flkajfdfrier7312]

Not to mention Principal Bump put Luz into Potions when she first started out at Hexside.

[@infinityheart_tm9270]

Potions can also be seen as a sort of jack of all trades. Since they can practically do anything if you have the means to fetch the ingredients.

[@adrianadamsson6757]

Now that I think about it, I understand why in general Belos would want students to stick to one track. But students with the intention of eventually joining the Emperors Coven probably should be studying and mastering all tracks for maximum efficiency. It's also kind of strange that despite the fact it's supposed to be the most powerful coven, the only individual in the Emperor's coven whose combat abilities seem at all impressive with the exception of Belos himself is Lilith. Maybe that is because most members haven't actually studied more than one track in school before becoming scouts, not much of an advantage to be able to use all forms of magic if you are only actually trained in using one kind anyway.

Another thing about bard magic is that to do the more powerful spells, like the ones we see Raine use, it takes a lot of learning the instrument. Eda has technically used bard magic, but all we've seen her do is make things float.

Yeah, Raine and Eda have shown versatility with Bard Magic, but their also already skilled at those instruments.

This makes me really hope that singing would be enough to cast Bard magic

[@El3gantElephant]

@@emmaray6215 If whistling can change chemistry of liquids and can also be used to attack (can hear and see Raine whistling during covens vs wilds), than singing would also be used for bard magic. I think that instruments and sounds are ways to power or cast spells, and just like drawing a spell circle, the caster needs the knowledge and power to use magic through those tools. Basically, to not use an instrument and instead use different sounds in creative ways to cast bard magic, you need to be intelligent enough and have understanding of bard magic and it’s mechanics. I think that Raine is really smart and is great at bard magic, and at the end of “Them’s the Breaks, Kid” we even see Raine using bard magic to create the same decay effect Eda’s bard magic has, but Raine isn’t even cursed! Raine only saw Eda’s bard magic to realize the potential, even being the one suggesting to use Eda’s bard magic to take down Darius and Eberwolf, and later on replicating the effects on their own. This went a bit off topic, sorry, I just think the way bard magic is shown in the show is cool, and it’s interesting how Raine uses it.

[@juanabarca2354]

While I agree with you for the most part, specially on the fact that most of the magic covens are more or less right next to each other, I do believe illusion magic could be a bit higher since a good assassin could slip unseen through illusions. The main detail you're missing is the fact that most of these spells aren't executed with the intent to kill or deal serious damage. For example, when Gus goes to the illusionists graveyard, he essentially traps all his opponents in a field where they are unable to find Gus. Had Gus actually intended to hurt them, Gus would have dominated the battle. Same with the head coven. He is able to slip into the school and would have been able to seal most of the students magic had Gus, a gifted representative of illusion magic, not been present. There are also a bunch of coven scouts surrounding them, showing that if they wanted, they could have taken over the school right then and there even in the presence of Gus. Also, abomination magic is very versatile, specially since they can be modified, however, if I'm not wrong, Luz is able to just punch an abomination out of commission without any actual magic. Sure, abominations are versatile and strong, but they are also pretty squishy due to their goo like tendency.

[@sebastiaosousa5730]

Yeah but see Darius, His cythe hand is very resistant abomination material can solify easily if needed but usually keeps the Goo form for more versatility and agility

[@allanv.2496]

I think the abomination goo is like oobleck, it hardens when there's an external force applied (like when punched or hit) but is gooey when in motion. The goo floats when they're being structured into weapons and other stuff, so there's no physical pressure that stiffens it.

@@Whenpigfly666 yeah, Luz's glyphs control the magic around them (as Lilith said), but power glyphs probably has construction magic in them already

(S2 spoilers) Sigils are used to limit magic so it is easier for belos to win in a fight against the people while glyphs are used to control the magic around them so those two ideas contradict so they can’t be combined… Or it’s just that the sigil is supposed to make a witch stronger, probably issuing the magic already within the witch while luz being human had no magic…. Either or really

[@jessalynesimanjuntak9463]

I believe the reason Oracle magic isn't used more often in TOH is because it might be more like Healing and Beast keeping. When you think of Future Seeing character's in other forms of media (such as Nighteye from MHA) they are usually very *very* strong and powerful knowing and understanding of your every move but at a cost of some sort. For example Sir Nighteye can only determine one person's future movements and has to see every detail from their perspective. And he doesn't have any sort of physical or mental benefits only the knowledge. From my understanding Oracle magic with the foresight is probably very difficult and takes a lot of focus and doesn't have *that* many benefits and it could even take a greater toll on the person's body from that experience, even though we did not see a lot if any of the Oracle Coven Head, I believe it probably takes a very mentally strong mind to see the future for multiple people. When you think about it there are a lot of technicalities when it comes to the subject, who's future are you seeing, how long are you seeing the future, does one scene of events count as everyone who is visible in the scene's future, and so fourth.

[@dysphanic_redshift]

My personal opinion on coven magic: Aside from the Emperor's Coven which is the obvious exception, Abomination and Bard are some of the most versatile, but every coven can be powerful in it's own right. We see examples of this everywhere, too. (Beastkeeping - Gwen/Eber; Potions - Eda; Bard - Raine; Abomination - Darius/Alador; Oracle - Odalia; Plant - Willow/Terra; Healing - Emira/Viney; Illusion - Gus; Construction I'm unsure on but prob Matt) There's no real way to rank the Covens because each of them cover different things. Beastkeeping is control of the creatures, both attack and as help; potions are for things basic magic can't help (Eda's elixrs); illusions are control of people's perceptions; healing can be both support and attack bc as seen, healers will know the most lethal spots to go for; ect. Though, if I *had* to choose a coven, I'd go Bard. I love music and the ability to do magic (And have Raine as the head of my coven, bc they deserve the world) with it sounds awesome Edit: After watching the vid, I fully agree w/ all of your points

[@notused5257]

The bard coven can manipulate objects, we saw this with Ed’s when she started playing.

[@sabercat5490]

Really wish we saw more of potion and healing.

[@MatheusPereira-kl5tc]

About Healing Coven: It's also established that they can perform defensive agic like shields as seen in Any Sport in a Storm

[@cosmeticincantations7997]

I personally would put potions in number one cause you don't even need magic to make potions! Eda lost her powers to the curse but you don't see that stopping her. Belos should have counted it as wild magic cause nothing is stopping anyone from grabbing a pot, heating up some water and snagging whatever magical item they can find! (heh I found a coven loophole)

[@calamityganon843]

Even though potions are very versatile and can be made without magic the reason it was not in a higher spot is because of the time needed to make the potions and you need to have the right ingredients for the potion you want so it is very time consuming now if you have pre prepared potions then yes a potions user woukd be a very formidable foe but still unless they have pre prepared potions I don't think there opponent is gonna wait for them to make more potions and speaking of making more potions what if you do make pre prepared potions and they run out before the fight ends so the reason if wasn't a higher spot is because there are just to many flaws with potions

[@christopheredwards788]

Great job on the ranks.

[@lolak4266]

I think we all know that the tiny cat coven is the best

[@djimonmcdonald9085]

Honestly I think potions can be a threat but yeah with the ingredients gathering that would make them pretty weak..but then again there could be some potions that could rival the other covens like imagine one that could temporarily seal your magic or somethin.

[@Jodipo]

If I had to be part of a Coven, which I wouldn't be onboard with, then my choice would be... Beast Keeping.

[@Tari_10_Editz]

I was so confused at first thinking of an owl house x Ben 10 au, I say Luz would be the case for that but I don't even know what her original 10 be but this video helped me out, I only thought of 4 which are chromastone, artiguana, wildvine and heatblast, but after watching this, i thought of a few more like goop, ghostfreak, diamondhead, rath and echo echo, but 1 more is remaining and I just couldn't put my finger on it

Something the bard coven could try to do is manipulate the vibrations they can make, even with the vibrations of your stomping your foot could possibly produce earthquakes

[@melonstripes2259]

Since Raine can change the makeup of a liquid from just seeing some of it (the drink wasn’t in a clear glass or anything), does that mean that Raine can kill someone of their opponent has a cut by turning the blood in their body to apple blood or something?

[@mauroperez2848]

You could also use music and sound to cause internal damage by using different frequencies to rupture organs among other things.

[@davidbodor1762]

I wonder if you could use healing magic to harm/kill. Like heal but do it intentionally wrong, like the Inflict Wounds cleric spell in D&D or fleshcrafting someone's body.

[@TheDarkLordoftheSiff]

thoughts on the covens now that the show is over Healing: it's still very rarely shown and you described it very well Potion: FTF showed us another power of potions being able to melt Abomination goo which is a pretty useful power when against an Abomination maker but the weakness you stated it had is still there but there are more that you forget to one being if a potion is made wrong it will completely change most of the time probley just being ruined and if a potion bottle is broken at the wrong time the potion inside would be either set off or wasted Illusions: you covered it perfectly Construction: after FTF we saw more of what this coven can go being able to move already summoned rock Beast Keeping: You covered it perfectly but one thing I am wondering about is can a bond between beast and witch be broken and if yes what can you do with that beast now Bard: You covered it perfectly Oracle: so little is shown but you still covered it as well as you could Plant: You covered it perfectly Abomination: something new we see in season 3 is that an Abomination coven user can't just summon an Abomination out of nowhere they need goo to use Amity having to use mud as her goo since she didn't have any in Thanks to Them plus a new weakness is that what if an abomination is dried out what happens does it turn to dust, become a statue, or just can't be dried out

[@grayfox4819]

Guys, I know this is inappropriated to do it here, but I need your help: The fandom is collapsing, words of hate and anger against the show are spreading in the last days, and many fans are becoming unfairly pessimistic over the S3 without giving it a chance. Please, spread Dana's message on your twitter. I don't know how much it can help but we have to try...

It’s not Dana’s fault her show was cancelled. It is unfair seeing how much hate is directed at her and her creation.

[@Yourlovelyghost]

@@docfox4353 Dana really did try her best. The owl house Is the best show I've EVER seen. I agree, its not her fault at all. It's Disney's fault, I think this is all because they don't want a diverse show to "ruin" their reputation. They love censorship. Dana has done everything she could.

[@unknownymous8450]

Wdym cancelled

[@docfox4353]

@@unknownymous8450 The Owl House was intended to have 3 full seasons, but Disney, which produces the show, cancelled it before season 2 even released. And third season was reduced from 20 episodes to 3 44-minute specials (The equivalent of six normal episodes). Dana Terrace, the show creator says it was because the show didn’t meet the expectations of the Disney brand, but most people think it is because of the show’s LGBTQIA+ content, which gets censored in a lot of countries overseas, such as China.

[@alexkimball4910]

one detail about beast keeping magic that you forgot to mention is that you can use it to animate inanimate objects, as seen by Gwendolyn when confronting Eda and Liliths beast forms, she brings roof shingles to life with an eye and wings to make a path up to them

[@threeguysandagirlinabeachhouse]

Okay so I'm like half way through and i think bard and beast keeping should be switched, i think that in a combat situation beast keeping can just be used you can summon animals to you while something like bard magic you need an instrument (if you don't count whistling) and you can just stop bard magic with ear blockers but beast keeping cannot be as easily swapped

[@El3gantElephant]

For the ear blockers part, bards can still manipulate the environment, just not people. Plus, there may be some way for bard magic to counteract ear blockers that we didn’t see. But yeah, beasts are really useful and powerful, but this is also a ranking of the coven heads, so that had some factor to the results as well

[@threeguysandagirlinabeachhouse]

@@El3gantElephant that's very true, but with earblockers once again i don't think you need like actual ones you could probably make makeshift ones out of plants or abomination just in the right form, and i think that in specific situations eberwolf could maybe beat raine, because they're so small and flexible they could probably easily dodge waves and stuff

[@bogeys]

3:13 In season 1 episode 5, Covention, it is revealed that Amity was using a strength patch (or whatever its called) during the witches duel against Luz to help increase her magic abilites.

[@andrzejroskowicz245]

I don’t think oracle magic can actually predict future. Otherwise they would know about the unity day.

[@moondivine2288]

Keep in mind that some things are rushed because of disney. I imagine if they had time the coven head probably knew about the day of unity but kept quiet because they were corrupt. Just like Odalia. For the rest of the Oracles they have to be suspicious for them to look up the day of unity in their visions.

[@toastystitch6942]

I love the idea of abomination magic, it’s my number one main magic on the boiling isles, next to bard and beast keeping. Overall every coven is great but abomination is by far my favorite.

[@bozosbozo]

If you’ve never seen the combat capability of illusions it’s because of the different ways authors used them plus illusions have extremely high capabilities. The book series that made me realize this and one that I highly recommend is “The Young Elites”. Illusions are an underrated and powerful ability that just get overshadowed by the abilities that do physical damage unfortunately.

I was wondering for a while if I were a witch in this universe (I dabble in real life) which coven I'd be in. I didn't come here seeking that answer, but having you break each of these down as you ranked them was super helpful. I'd be in the Oracle Coven. Not too shabby.

[@johanstenfelt1206]

Huh, how very interesting, i wish we could’ve seen more from the other Coven Leaders.

[@jacobrodriguez7365]

I wish we saw more Oracle magic because it seems like it has quite a lot of potential plus it seems pretty cool like Snapdragon the illusion coven head Darius and raines magic power

[@antikovt]

Seeing magic types discussed in depth like this really makes me wonder about some deviant types of magic, kind of like in Avatar: TLA. Heating things up with sound waves would definitely be possible for a skilled Bard, essentially turning them into a temperature witch; controlling fungi or even bacteria as a Plant Coven member could bring some unforeseen consequences; Illusion Coven witches could pry more into the psychological and mind-reading aspect of their craft; self-enhancement aspect of Abomination magic could be explored further. The possibilities are essentially endless. It sucks that we won't get much more of TOH, but such things could potentially be explored in comic books and/or spin-offs.

[@annad1132]

The other coven heads are so undeveloped I thought that they were the "replace" ones

[@SatireGod]

Illusion, potions and healing are a far more gimmicky forms of magic rather than being more powerful, plant magic having the potential bonuses of potions and healing to a lesser extent, abomination magic definitely looks like the most fun to use, and has a lot of potential

[@aimless_aimz]

My point is that since Luz and others were allowed to take multiple tracks, imagine what power would come from some combinations. my ideal duo would have to be the oracle and illusion coven- the purpose being the fact that both can be used to mess with someone's head- so if you have at least half the strength of Gus (enough to make it seem like one is hallucinating) *and* the ability to telepathically communicate with someone (or possibly rummage through their thoughts), you could attempt to prey on your opponents fears or mental weaknesses and render them unable to fight. Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk.

[@Vangooter]

I love that Vitomir took a sec after he bumped his hat

[@smoogieboogie1694]

I really wish we knew more about the Beast Keeping coven. Like you said, we only ever see any form of shapeshifting in Eberwolf, whereas everyone else just has some degree of control over animals on the isles. So it's unclear if shapeshifting is an advanced Beast Keeping trait or just something Eberwolf themself can do. If it's the former, then Beast Keeping is my personal favorite just because shapeshifting is always incredibly cool to me whenever it shows up.

in convention lilith places a power glyph on amity and it actually boosts her magic without her going into that super saiyan mode tinella went thru so probably the glyph boost is more prominent on construction coven members

[@Icanart12]

I would definitely bring the illusion coven up at least one or two, the ability to manipulate people is crazy and you can create anything the only downside is it isn't physically there. Like covers you mention later, it is hard to become proficient, but it's crazey

[@ZacharyResky]

The one I wanted more development from Is vitimir and Adrian Graye, vitimir especially. Bro got the whole scarecrow design, he looks like he could actually do some serious damage!

[@iatelol]

I think that oracle magic could be like the same as abomination just because it can be a solid and like a gas i guess seeing that it can phase through abominations and other matter. Like if we had an ally that uses oracle magic i think that they would be more powerful than the others if there's more developments on it.

[@minglou2019]

i think that healing has a lot of potential: imagine essentially being invulnerable, and the only effective attack is a surprise one shot killing blow, and then add the ability to essentially use the force, maybe prevent the enemy from healing

[@accountN6942]

We really do need bard magic to be explained a lot better because how its explain is just spells via music which can literally be anything

[@conorgillingham2564]

Have no real issues with the rankings though I really like the construction coven. As it feels like it can have the same versatility as plant and abomination. Like my first thoughts that come to mind is Jura from fairy tail. Like plant and abomination, the location doesn’t matter as much and summoning powerful barriers around the battle field can definitely really be useful. Especially since it isn’t limited to a specific shape. (Like I think Eda used the magic in convention when she summoned a replica of hooty) plus. (And this is just a concept that we haven’t seen). But what if you were able to do a similar thing that Darius did and construct a suit of armor of out rocks? I think that would pretty cool.
