Imo the answer is Palpatine from star wars everyone praises Vader and how amazing he is, and he is a great villain especially in the comics and books

But Palpatine is easily one of the best villains to ever do it

Firstly let's not forget he created Darth Vader by taking advantage of the Hate, Fear and Loniness in Anakin's heart without Palpatine there would be no Vader

Secondly- he was was able to infiltrate the senate so deeply by the time they figured him out it was way to late he already has his clone Army and he already had Anakin at his side

Thirdly- speaking of manipulation, he manipulated the world and created a war just so the jedi army will make the clone troopers just so he can use said clones to wipe out the Jedi via Order 66

Palpatine is by far one of the greatest villains to ever do it and I feel he doesn't get the respect he deserves

He pretty much single handedly took over the galaxy and put the jedi order onto the endangered species list

Vilgax from Ben 10 AF/UA.

People clown on him for his unintentionally funny "You stabbed me!" line and for lacking the menace factor of the OG Vilgax.

But if we go by track record, this version of Vilgax managed to:
a. Defeat 10 heroes from 10 worlds
b. Beat around an older, more experienced Ben with a stronger playlist of aliens
c. Kill Ben/Chromastone
d. Get the Omnitrix twice and force Ben to self destruct it the second time
e. Become a god
f. Consistently bully Humungousaur in almost every one of their fights

The guy can often be written like a Saturday morning cartoon villain but he was OP as hell and much more effective than you'd think.

The funniest thing is that I've seen many of his haters claim that OV Vilgax was better...the same version of the character whose best personal feats IIRC consisted of doing a lethal Malware cosplay for one episode and bottoming for Ma Vreedle. The Chronosapien time bomb was cool though ig.

OG Vilgax the goat

Kevin’s bridge mutation scene is so iconic

Ben 10 is the best Western cartoon ever.

Darth vader nor any other sith is really competent at all. What did Vader even do, kill Obi wan?

Palpatine was the genius who built an empire, led a galactic civil war on both sides, had the Jedi wiped out, and didn´t even die or some bullshit.
Right!!? And Obi already had a foot out the door tbh
