DO NOT READ If you have not finished Harry Potter Book !?

In the end, when Harry wins the wand from Voldermort, he wins it because it was Draco's. How does that work out? What did Draco do to win the wand?

Thanks!

    Draco inevitably led the series of events that resulted in Dumbledore's death in Book 6. He led the charge into Hogwarts. He disarmed Dumbledore, kept him at bay etc. Snape was acting under Dumbledore's wishes when he killed him. Therefore, for lack of better phrasing, the triumph of Dumbledore's death lies with Draco in the Wand lore realm.

    Harry then defeats Draco at Malfoy manor and has his wand. Therefore since Draco beat Dumbledore, Harry beat Draco the elder wand has chosen its master: Harry.

    Draco won the wand from Dumbledore when he disarmed him in the 6th book. But at that point, Draco had no idea that Dumbledore's wand was so powerful (the Elder Wand)

    Draco disarmed Dumbledore and Dumbledore was defeated, so draco was the owner. Harrry had deafeated draco and took Draco's wand, but Draco was already owner of the Elder Wand. Therefore harry was the rightful owner, so the wand came to him and Voldemort's killling curse backfired on himself.

    Draco was the one who used Expeliarmus on Dumbledore in the 6th book, up in the Astronomy tower therefore defeating Dumbledore and winning his wand. He didn't take the wand though, and thats why it was buried with Dumbledore.

    Draco disarmed Dumbledore before snape killed him, so the elder wand belonged to him. by disarming Draco, the ownership went over to Harry.

    in the 6th book, draco disarms dumbledore. that was what won the wand. and then harry disarmed draco at malfoy manor, so now the wand is harry's. although voldemort think's it's snape's and he kills him for that

    He took it from Dumbledore when he was laying in the tower, and Whoever instructs Draco to take his wand. They wanted him to kill Dumbledor and he couldnt and the wand chose him.

    draco was the real one who disarmed dumbledore in the lightning struck tower

    snape never won the wand because he did something tha t dumbledore was already destined to i.e is death
