Top 10 Most Powerful GREEK GODS

Welcome back to another video! The Olympians, however annoying they may be, are undoubtedly very powerful, which is why I thought it'd be interesting to try ranking them by power. Feel free to leave your thoughts in the comments below, and enjoy the video!

Who’s your favorite Olympian? Mine has to be either Hades or Apollo!

[luke_james]

I like Hades he's just misunderstood because he's the god of the Underworld so everyone just blames him for basically everything

[naraiceylob]

I think Poseidon is potentially the strongest of the gods however he is also the most burdened god as he has to deal with so many other powerful water gods who could rebel. He almost missed the battle in the last olympian because other water gods were threatening Atlantis.

Actually in the Percy Jackson canon it is said that none of the second generation Olympians (meaning the different children of Zeus and Aphrodite herself) exceeds in power the 6 children of Kronos and Rhea. So the first 6 positions should be occupied by them.

I would have definitely put Aphrodite on the list. I mean, Piper almost lulled Gaia back to sleep and there is no way she couldn't do that too. It is stated that Aphrodite considers herself the oldest and most powerful goddess.

Also in terms of feats I think Demeter should also be granted a spot in the Top 10. She literally created the seasons when Persephone was kidnapped.

So I would replace Ares and Hermes with Aphrodite and Demeter.

In Greek mythology, Ares actually is a pretty decent father. When his son died, he mourned over it. But, there are different versions of Greek mythology, so I’m not complaining about what Rick did. Expect for make Zoë, Bianca, Bob, Damasen, possibly small bob, and Jason die. Also Percabeth falling into Tartarus.

When Hera “threw” Leo into the fire, I honestly think she was about to make him a god. Think about it. In the story of Persephone’s kidnapping, Demeter had that one child in the fireplace and her mother yanked the child out of the fireplace. Leo. That is exactly what happened to Leo . . .

I actually do believe Dionysus deserves to be on the list, especially since you included tales of the Greek gods where his cult spread to most of the ancient world. But even discounting that he has powerful displays of causing and during madness, he transforms people into telkhines and, I may be misremembering here cause it's been years since I read MOA, when Jason and Percy right each other he breaks them apart pretty easily. I think he should swap with ares, then also move higher up the list

I’m sorry but Zeus is number one (you may like it or not). Btw he is not hated in Percy jackson. That’s Hera. Zeus is the strongest mainly because he can take away the gods powers and even without that… he has the strongest weapon in the Greek myths. Btw if you read the Riordan wiki of Zeus… it is written (on the abilities part) that he is the strongest god.

Honestly, Apollo should be first because he completed feats no other god would step up to do apart from his sister Artemis. He also came inches away from Chaos and survived and in the Trials of Apollo, it says that barely any god came into Tartarus and no god even came close to Chaos. It even says that the other gods feared chaos but Apollo knew how he must destroy Python and took the risk, knowing he most likely will be absorbed.☀

Juno’s underrated. He orchestrated everything. Not just in the lost hero, but through the whole second series

[dominicwelch]

Hera wasn’t that powerful in Percy Jackson but she was stronger in Greek Mythology strong enough to Take down Artemis with just one strike.

[unarealtaragionevole]

I always thought a god we needed to really see in universe was Morpheus, he's one of those gods who gets down played in terms of power and influence. All gods slept, and of his siblings he was by far the most powerful. While asleep they were at his mercy for dreams and nightmares. If Aphrodite get's feared for her power to influence the gods with love, then Morpheus' ability to manipulate and control the god's dreams and nightmares needs consideration also.

My FAVORITE god is definatley hecate. The greek goddes of magic, witchcraft, the moon, light, ghosts, and necromancy

[Writing_freak]

Apollo is my fav....I think he deserves to be in the top one more thing....Hermes is not god of writing and language....that's Apollo....

[sonofhades]

Who’s your favorite Olympian? Mine has to be either Hades or Apollo!

Same Hades and Apollo!

[crazycreator]

I think we are forgetting are has some control over the dead
I think he controls the dead that died in war or fighting him to some extent
Like in sea of monsters and we know he can turn people into animal, as seen in Greek hereos

[Arlondev]

Yeah, no. Zeus is still definitely #1 in the Riordanverse. You forgot that he can just, like, revoke godhood altogether. It is probably his most defining skill. The entire trials of apollo series was based around Zeus just yoinking Apollo's godhood away, and he's done it to Poseidon too. If the big three ever fought, Zeus could probably just turn Hades and Poseidon mortal and crush them like ants. Not only that, but the master bolt is powerful enough to "Make mortal nukes look like firecrackers", which far out-feats the Trident or Helm of Darkness. I know that I'm a total Zeus apologist, and I think he's a doucher too, don't get me wrong, but he shouldn't be number 3 just because Poseidon and Hades are better characters.

In Greek Mythology itself, not technically the Riordanverse but the Trojan War is still canon in the Riordanverse meaning that it is probably still true, Zeus addresses the other Olympians in the Iliad by basically saying "I am so much stronger than you, that if you wrapped a cable around my arm on one end, the entire earth on the other, and every single one of you pulled it with all of your might, you would not bring me an inch closer to the ground. Furthermore, I could lift the earth and all of you over my head and swing you around like a lasso"

When this was written in the Iliad, the poet seemed to mean it literally, and the other Gods took this threat seriously, implying that Zeus could actually do this, which isn't hard to believe.

Good video.

Dionysus turned Frank into a crazy dolphin! Number one spot right there.
