The SSD can effortlessly BDZ Earth. Regardless of how powerful the wizards are, they wouldn't do well with the vaporized remnants of Earth's crust filling their lungs. The TINY land mass covered by magical areas that are unplottable would similarly melt, and since the wizards don't appear to grow any food or anything in their tiny areas even if they survived the attack then they would all starve to death.

Besides that, Voldemorte is no match for Darth Vader.

I have yet to see much of Potterverse magic to be beyond LoS or small applications(considering that hiding a bunch of them at a sports feat seems to have taken monthes of prep time)

The SSD will effortlessly slag Earth and not care about any random mages that get deep fried.

Not to say that Sarevok also didn't kick major arse, his voice was mean too. And he had that awesome armour.
Bodhi was pretty cool, too, actually. Baldur's Gate was a GREAT computer game series.
