Black Clover’s magic based combat system is one of the most visually engaging amongst new-gen animanga. Some of the series’ massively overpowered attacks and spells can be incredibly destructive, whether by design or simply as a result of happenstance.
There are also different types of destructive spells seen throughout Black Clover. Some are destructive in the sense that, through their use, both the target and the surrounding environment can be greatly affected by the attack. Others are destructive in that they create environments or summon entities which endlessly consume mana.
Regardless of how destructive they are, these types of Black Clover spells are undoubtedly fearsome and terrifying. Here are the ten most destructive spells in Black Clover, ranked from least to most destructive.
Note: This article will only cover moves and related power-ups and strength levels seen in the Black Clover anime thus far.
Black Bulls dominate Black Clover’s most destructive spells list
10) Zagred’s summoning spell
Zagred’s summoning spell brings forth a plethora of blob-like, sentient underworld monsters which chase and absorb lifeforce and mana.
While not environmentally destructive, the spell can decimate the ranks of lower-class Magic Knights. If used in general battle versus a larger, less-skilled force, the true destructive nature of the spell would be on full display, as it relates to the decimation of soldiers and civilians.
9) Calidas Brachium
The general Calidus Brachium spells are undoubtedly among Black Clover’s top ten most destructive. However, their rank is fairly low as a result of their strength being dependent on whether or not Mereoleona uses Mana Zone or not.
When using Mana Zone, the range and power of the spell is amplified by a ridiculous amount. However, a base Calidus Brachium without Mana Zone, while still destructive, is far from the most so in the series at large.
8) Zora Counter Trap
Zora’s Counter Trap and its destructive potential are somewhat dependent on two major factors. The first is what the base spell is countering, and the second is how much power that spell builds before being released.
The latter point is incredibly important, as Zora and Asta were able to creatively use their abilities to maximize the reflected spell’s destructive power. This resulted in one of the most environmentally destructive and powerful spells seen thus far in the series.
7) Spirit of Zephyr
The Spirit of Zephyr spell sees deuteragonist Yuno condense external mana into a two-handed sword. The sword is able to cut enemies with the blade, as well as create a tornado around it which can be used in various means.
The sword also has erosive properties relative to mana it comes in contact with, weakening more powerful spells or mana until they can be cut through. These factors all combine to make the Spirit of Zephyr sword spell one of Black Clover’s most destructive.
6) Black Divider
Black Divider is one of the trademark spells of Black Clover’s central protagonist, Black Bulls member Asta. Using his Demon-Slayer Sword, he condenses his Anti Magic within the weapon and pushes it to the edges. The sword then proportionately grows to several times its normal size.
The Black Divider spell can reach massive sizes, able to slice through large areas in an incredibly destructive manner. The sword can also affect both mana and physical objects, making its destruction two-fold in terms of what it can affect.
5) Dark Cloaked Dimension Slash
The Dark Cloaked Dimension Slash is one of Yami Sukehiro’s signature spells seen throughout Black Clover. He channels darkness into his katana, via his Dark Magic grimoire, and then releases it in a downward slash.
The spell is incredibly powerful, shown being able to cut through large clouds of mana, as well as Spatial Magic and even space itself. The spell is one of the most powerful in the series.
4) Sea Dragon’s Roar
When combined with Mana Method, Noelle Silva’s Sea Dragon’s Roar spell is undoubtedly one of the most destructive in the series. In its base form, when not utilizing Mana Method, the spell was shown to be able to destroy a powerful mage’s defensive spell, rip the arm off said mage, and continue crashing through several walls.
Considering Noelle has only grown since this incident and is now able to use Mana Method, there’s little doubt it ranks as one of the most destructive spells in Black Clover.
3) Light Swords of Conviction
Patolli’s Light Swords of Conviction is an incredibly powerful, area-of-effect Light Magic spell. The user creates multiple shards of light with various points on each, subsequently launching them at opponents.
While not environmentally destructive, the spell can absolutely decimate enemy forces when used properly. It’s undoubtedly one of the most powerful and destructive spells within Black Clover so far.
2) Archangel Shootdown
Used by Langris Vaude, this Spatial Magic spell can be incredibly destructive to both environments and other living things. Its area-of-effect nature allows large swaths of land and enemies to be absolutely riddled with Spatial Magic, erasing whatever each sphere comes in contact with.
While counterable by other Spatial Magic and Anti Magic, these attributes are wielded by a few mages in the series. As a result, Archangel Shootdown is one of the most destructive and least counterable spells within Black Clover.
1) Arrows of Judgment
Finally, Patolli’s Arrows of Judgment spell is an incredibly powerful and destructive Light Magic attack. The user creates countless swords of light around them in an incredibly large area, pointing at whatever may be laying below as they hang in the sky.
When the spell is complete, these blades rain down on the unsuspecting environment or people below, swiftly and violently attacking them. Additionally, the user can grab one of the blades and use it as a sword, which can be incredibly useful when an opponent is distracted with the massive attack, as already seen in Black Clover.
