In a duel, most fans and analyses favor Professor Minerva McGonagall, citing her superior dueling skill, immense magical knowledge (especially Transfiguration), calm pragmatism, and Dumbledore's trust, over Bellatrix's raw power and dark magic, though Bellatrix's ruthlessness and experience with dark arts make her a formidable, dangerous opponent who could win if McGonagall gets complacent.

What spell killed Bellatrix?

Molly Weasley killed Bellatrix Lestrange with a powerful, non-verbal spell during the Battle of Hogwarts, likely a strong Reducto (which destroys objects) or a magical equivalent, fueled by pure maternal rage after Bellatrix nearly killed Ginny, hitting her directly in the chest and causing her to topple over lifelessly.
