Weaknesses

Discord's magic can be overcome by certain individuals or objects. He has been defeated and petrified by the Elements of Harmony; Celestia cast a spell on the Elements to keep Discord from taking them again; His magic has been overpowered and taken by an empowered Tirek and Grogar's Bell; His magic had been nullified by Queen Chrysalis' throne and an anti-magic lock put on him in Abyssia. He can be so overconfident and cocky that he will not go all-out against enemies, and has a tendency to underestimate them. He has been defeated three times due to this; Initially by Celestia and Luna, later by the Mane Six, and most recently by Tirek. Despite being a master manipulator, he can be tricked himself at some points, such as when he was tricked by Lord Tirek into betraying his friends for freedom, and then tricked by Tirek, Chrysalis and Cozy Glow into thinking that they failed to obtain Grogar's bell. If Discord acts or becomes "normal", he starts to fade away from existence as he cannot use his reality warping powers in the process of doing so, but it can be reversed if he experiences something "chaotic". In addition, he can lose his powers if someone compatible with his realm enters it while he is not there and begins to link with it, although this can be reversed by proving himself the more chaotic one. They would have to destroy the spare Discord recently residing in the dimension first before the linking can begin.

Ranked #1 of 53 in My Little Pony by strength.
