>>32288147It really depends. Giovanni was the least bullshit one, and in story, he was also the most threatening one, but he came off as just a random guy you beat a whole bunch of times. There was nothing special about him. He was boring.
We don't talk about Archer.
Archie was retarded and a joke. He made no sense, yet found a group of idiots to follow him, which also makes no sense. And there was nothing threatening about him, so he fails as a villain. He was just another retard.
Maxie made sense, but that's it. There was nothing special about him either, nor was he any threatening.
Cyrus gave off a dark and refined aura. He tried to be mysterious, but it was clear from the start who he was and what he wanted. He was also retarded. Still the most threatening a villain has been so far, if only thanks to the things he summons and his plans.
N was also retarded, even more so than Archie, and he was not threatening at all. A total joke, for most part.
Ghetsis was better. The fact that you don't fight him until the end gave him a sense of superiority. His plans were also a complete joke, but his presence was threatening, if only for the wrong reasons.
Colress was okay. Interesting, not at all threatening and not a good villain for that reason.
BW2 Ghetsis isn't present for most of the story, but when he is, he is threatening, and now not retarded. Best yet, in my opinon.
Lysandre made sense, and looked great and threatening, but his execution was shit and he didn't come off nearly as threatening as Ghetsis. Wasted character.
Guzma was a joke. Shit villain.
Lusamine is a great character, and threatening when needed to be, so great in that department. Dark and detestable too, without being unreasonable. Lacked a proper connection to the protagonist, so you didn't much reason to fight her unless you were invested in the story/characters.
Personally, I'd say BW2 Ghetsis > Lusamine > BW Ghetsis > Lysandre > Cyrus > Giovanni > Maxie > N > Archie > Guzma > Archer.
