I would ignore the "superlatives" the show spouts out. Headcanon and theory are pretty much superior to what it implies. XD

My theory is: Rumple has every spellcasting ability that every DO has had, with the raw power of DO-Nimue branch and DO-Merlin branch.

But magic make little sense as they try to do "Magic can't be created or destroyed", but Queenie had magic, along with Regina, and that makes magic out of nowhere.
