As the topic says, discuss, debate here about it. Even argue your choice ! I'll start.

Big Mass Effect fan here, and since all my cartoons, movies, games that I experienced, I never found someone or something else more powerful, evil, twisted and somehow terrifying than the Reapers.

If they were looking like space spiders, even more terrifying (thank god no) but the ability to be impenetrable, only to a combine massive fleet to barely scratch you, the ability to influence the course of entire civilizations and even control the minds of all organic beings... well that's quite an evil brilliance there.

"I see.... That you want to get some exp on your new frame, Thenno..."

oh, and let's not forget obligatory Lord Dominator





I wouldn't know who would be the most 'evil of all evils' - but funny villains are best villains.

Admiral Thrawn from Star Wars Rebels is a cold and calculating villain, for example.

But if to have be serious... She is. Does anyone else remember or know her?

The most evil group is in my opinion the Sith, with all their groups (all empires and the First Order). Just because they have their superweapons (that Sith-temple on that planet, the Deathstar and the Starkiller Base), they use them to kill a lot of innocent people. That is evil.

And the most funny villain is Dr. Doofenshmirtz

( Yes, the Reapers are very evil, too.)

Reapers are no doubt my Top-1 Antagonists from ME-series at this point.



Also Deathwing is one of those types that I liked thus far from Warcraft universe

Hans Landa, Inglourious Bastards

Hagen from Tronje because killing Siegfried was necessary and killing someone who believes he is invulnerable by cunning is just what needs to happen to "the ultra-good" in epic stories. Can't stand heroes that are too white-washed. They need to meet their end because of being too arrogant in their sincerety.

Interestingly enough, I really love villains that have a lot of backstory or perspective twist to it.

Handsome Jack from Borderlands comes to mind. He's the villain from the player's perspective in such a brilliant way, but in reality all he's doing is trying to bring civilisation to a lawless, backstabbing bandit planet before taking things personally after spoiler stuff.
