Why did Alastor Moody grow rusty in his duelling skills at his old age, while Dumbledore can still fight...
In Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, it was mentioned that Moody was defeated by both Bartemius Crouch Jr. and wormtail, but Moody is the most powerful auror the Ministry has ever had. How come? However, Dumbledore is much older than Moody is, yet Dumbledore can still take on Voldemort with no problem. Is that a plothole? Can someone explain?
