I mean, Luna was Nightmare Moon before, had not for Twilight, she’d be forever consumed.

What’s mouthpiece about this? Celestia and Luna being nice and humble? Or Twilight standing up for herself? Sounds in character to me.

I don’t really accept that idea that Accord can control the Elements. In context, The Elements backfired due to Accord already being “balanced” and thus changed everyone else to be under his spell. (Which is bullshit if you ask me)
First of all. It wasn’t explicitly the power of the Mane 6’s friendship at play here, NOR was their friendship truly at it’s strongest at this point in the series.
Secondly, We know Twilight was absent and Celestia filled her role, and we know this exact scenario has played out differently throughout the series (Stopping Nightmarity, the Mean 6 getting melted, Spike replacing Rainbow Dash, Sombra brainwashing half the mane 6 in the Transformers crossover.)
One BIG plot hole was the fact that Starlight was seemingly protected by a normal bubble shield of Celestia. Not only that, but As we saw in “What about Discord” Celestia and Twilight can cast spells even Discord cannot break, and Starlight can apparently banish him from Castle Grounds in “A Matter of Principles”
So apparently, Celestia’s magic can block Discord/Accord AND the Elements of Harmony backfiring, yet the Elements are simultaneously stronger than her because Accord is “already balanced” despite being done through mind control, and not true friendship.
Yeah, I HATE that comic with a passion.

Huh, I know Discord could die either when not empowered by Chaos magic or when he doesn’t cause chaos. But this? So he can actually not disappear while doing so as he switches nature? I bet lack of magic entirely would still kill him though.

I know this conversation is dead since a month but okay…
@CottonTales
Or just because Discord trusted Tirek and he didn’t expected being betrayed by Tirek (Seeing Tirek’s backstory on the IDW comics, is a pretty ironic a person who feels betrayed by all the family wants to betray someone who actually acts like a weird friend).
@Macaroni C-Pony
About Eris and Discord, Eris is really weak on comparation to Discord and i even think she don’t even have all her powers thanks to Pony of Shadows (i mean, the entire point of Nightmare Knights series is about recover Luna’s powers from Eris’ hands who wants to use it for evil which don’t make sense if Eris have her powers which barely we see at the end of the series) and Eris hates Discord like if she have envy of him like Luna was jealous of Celestia.
Also, on the same comics, Discord on his Accord form can control the harmony elements without any trouble.
So, Discord can be hurted on 2 ways, draining his powers or for himself like in Discordant Harmony and i suspect the third way is being attacked by something he don’t know at all like the tentacle creature that makes him sick (I really don’t know why nobody takes that data like something that should have been explored more?)

My guess is that only artifacts can affect Discord (The Elements of Harmony, Chrysalis Throne/shards, Grogar´s Bewitching Bell), but never living beings. This is in direct contrast to Tirek (who can only absorb magic from living entities).
The problem with that is Tirek himself can affect discord, he stole his magic directly before without the use of an artifact. So either he’s an exception or you just need enough power
