Not even a contest, BB has to surpass Enel and Crocodile as antagonists first.

He certainly has the potential but with the way Oda's writing these days i doubt it.

BB clears that bum

Blackbeard is more iconic due real life pirate exist .
‘Doflimingo give impressive as cool villain, better character , better villain which it make me enjoy doflimingo .
And have admiral as bodyguard which it is cool to see.

But Blackbeard will surpass doflimingo when his time start.

As a villain Crocodile > Doflamingo, even as a Croc fan you had to root against him in Alabasta, that's how twisted he was.

 

[DarkWitch]

Doflamingo in everything.

Blackbeard could surpass Doflamingo in the future when we get to an arc focused on him, but for now I would say that Doflamingo is a better character and villain than Blackbeard.

 

[MonsterKaido]

Doffy for now. BB can surpass him but we need to see it

 

[TheAncientCenturion]

Crocodile was the more effective villain but Doflamingo as a character is > Crocodile.

BB is still among Oda's most lackluster creations btw

 

[Apollo]

BB didn't get focus yet, I like his character but he does not have the backstory nor the moments of Doffy or Croc, who stand at the top as the best antagonists in one piece.

Only round I was torn on was the iconic one as BB is very iconic, but Doffy is also quite iconic himself.

 

[Junatic]

Not a fair comparison imo. Doflamingo's story's complete but BB's a villain in the makin. Still has an unrevealed story and a role to play in the plot.

R1 better antagonist
Mingo. As an antagonist, BB is still in the build up faze.

R2 better character
Mingo. He is a complete character while BB is still being built up

R3 more ironic
Blackbeard. He is responsible for some of the most iconic OP moments in general like WB's death and having 2 fruits.

R4 who you like more
Blackbeard without question. Been #1 for years.

Doffy is the only good thing Oda has done post time skip lmao.

 

[Boris D. Foot]

I’m going with doffy. BB does have the potential though.

Doflamingo is the best villain in OP.

 

[Ven437]

Doffy by a landslide and it's not even close.

BB's backstory might change all of that but Doffy's just had that melodramatic impact to it. Back when Oda was still doing flashbacks the right way (looking at midget Kaido smh).

 

[Reborn]

Blackbeard in all categories 🤷

 

[Golden Garp]

BB has become so underrated because of these posts Wano chapters.

[PurpleSwordsman]

Blackbeard is still not an antagonist I'd say since he still didn't have his arc against the main guy

R1: Blackbeard. Blackbeard set in motion Marineford and became a Yonko. Doflamingo thought it was a good idea to lock himself in an island with a bunch of people he had tried to kill. And an Admiral who he thought he could somehow take out.

R2: Blackbeard. He’s a pirate’s pirate. He’s a proper dark Luffy. Has his setbacks, is far from perfect but still ends up winning. Doflamingo was a lesser Crocodile and I wasn’t really impressed much by his or Law’s flashback.

R3: Blackbeard. He has the man’s dream speech, pretty much the peak One Piece panel. His fight with Ace. Plus his Marineford moments. Doffy doesn’t really have many iconic moments. His speech in Marineford? I prefer Blackbeard saying there’s no answer to justice or evil in ID. For all the length of Dressrosa there’s nothing in it that stands out as an iconic Doffy moment other than maybe Luffy stopping his foot, and I’d say Luffy was the main figure there.

R4: Blackbeard. Cause… I just like him more.
