Best Answer

He was chosen because he performed better than his rival, but there were contributing factors:

1.) Ron Weasley had increased confidence due to the false belief that Harry Potter had spiked his drink with a luck potion. Ron had the talent inside of him naturally, but simply had lacked the confidence to show it. This ruse by Harry, helped Ron shine.

2.) Hermione Granger used a spell during the tryouts to make Ron Weasley's rival make a mistake. The skill levels between Ron and his rival were so close, that Hermione wasn't sure who would be chosen, so she used the spell to tip the scales in Ron's favour.

However, she never played on any of the house teams.

Would Ron Weasley love Hermione Granger if she said that he was no good at Quidditch or he thought that she thought that?

If Hermione were to tell Ron that he wasn't good at Quidditch, it would hurt their relationship quite a bit. Ron was always sensitive about his Quidditch abilities and given his insecurity about Harry and Hermione, such a thing would not help given Harry's talent as a Seeker. Although, Hermione is not the type of person to say such a thing. As for his thoughts, well Ron spent most of the sixth book believing that nobody thought he could play Quidditch. He was also convinced that Hermione liked Harry better which halted their relationship to begin with.


What did Harry Potter like to play?
