    A game was human and his spells were more towards demoralize.

    Malekith is not human and he can use his Magic’s to actually attack.

    Wow, Angmar is a threat to a group of humans. Malekith is a threat to armies of Asgardians, or Thor. This is really not a fight. Mal could stand there and let Angmar hack at him until he can't lift his sword and just say "bro, I like the ghosty stuff, but are you finished?"

    Oh, if that's not who we were talking about, I apologize.

    Thor Villain Malekith is just Malekith.. Add the Witch King and you get Warhammer fantasy’s King of the Dark Elves.

    Angmar was way more than only a threat to a group of humans. He easily defeated Gandalf and was about to kill him. He even shattered Gandalf's staff trivially just by speaking near him. And this was Gandalf the White, an even more powerful incarnation than the Grey (who fought a giant powerful Balrog for 10 days and defeated it). So power-wise, he seemed to be somewhere in between Sauron himself and Gandalf the White.

    The problem
    Is Gandalf as the white has no real feats aside owning the Fellowship in his return and driving back the Army with Rohan but no Magic’s there.

    Malekith comes from a race that is highly magic in nature and killed the High self King. Those guys literally wrote the rules on magic.

    So given that and Angmar was a human turned Saurons pawn. Beating on the other Witch King.

    The other issue is that that scene never happened in the book. Gandalf and the Witch-King never fought in the primary source which I’m assuming this is in absence of other specification.

    But in all honesty even a composite Witch-King of Angmar doesn’t have too many combat feats, unless there’s some random video game where he’s soloing armies or something.

    Didn't book Gandalf the White flat out state that the only way the Fellowship would face something more powerful than himself is if they walked into Sauron's throneroom, or something to that extent?

    Pretty much.

    We don't know how powerful the Witch-King was in the books compared to Gandalf; at the time, he was basically mainlining Sauron's power, Could he have beaten Gandalf at the gates? No idea. The fight never happened.

    We do have some feats for him. Problem is, those feats aren't enough to put him on the same level as a guy who can take on Thor.
