Everyone knows that the worst enemy of Ben is Network. They managed to not only kill him slowly, but also reanimate to continue torturing. Now that's power

In terms of Omniverse, my favorite villain has got to be Malware. His origin is unique from other Ben 10 villains, he's so much fun visually, is one of the only people who actually SCARES Ben, and Ben isn't actually his main target but he chooses to traumatize Ben anyway by killing Feedback right in front of him.

My favorite line
"He becomes president of the world."
"And that's the most realistic thing about him!"

I’m just happy that vilgax got excellent, he used to scare Tf out of me as a kid

Had a feeling Albedo would get the justice they deserve and be put in the Ultimate tier, very nice list.

My headcanon for Vilgax's fear of Ma Vreedle was that she kicked his ass so badly when he was younger (like when he got the time bomb from Maltruant) that he became afraid of her.

I do love the smack Ben gives Khyber in the Omniverse season 1 finale. Where Khyber brags that he is the best hunter in the universe, but it took him over 5 years to capture Ben. It took Vilgax 5 minutes to do that. And by this point Vilgax is just an annoyance and not the threatening villain he used to be. So Ben giving Vilgax some love is extremely funny.

Rewatching the aggragore arc and I quite like him personally. Like I agree there's nothing deeper there with him as a character, but as a villain he is very effecent and threatening and I can respect that. Like he speaks very little but he lets his actions speak for him
And the whole arc is very entertaining.
I also like how he's entirely solo, no partners and no goons. He does everything by himself

Personally, I think the Tick should be on either Bad or Average tier simply due to how dangerous of a threat it was, and the fact that its defeat was the first time Ben and his family literally saved the world.

I liked Khyber for his intelligence, like when he fought Rath and pulled the Hephestan Neuro Grip on him. That and I liked his moment when he kidnapped Ben for his little game, when Ben said "So if I live until sundown or something you'll let me go?" and Khyber was like "lol no, the hunt will end when you do"

Charmcaster should have been ultimate. Great and consistent character development, she battles with insanity which always makes her unpredictable as opposed to being that mustache-twirling villain troupe, and the only villain to ever successfully kill Ben, Gwen, and Kevin. If that alone doesn’t warrant ULTIMATE, I don’t know what does!




Also Khyber should have been higher, not top tier but higher. He was intelligent, effective, and his motive was unique: he really, REALLY likes a good hunt.

Charmcaster should get Ultimate. She the only villain that actually killed Ben, Gwen and Kevin for a time.

I'm glad albedo got the ultimate tier. I'm a sucker for the whole "evil doppelganger" trope and Albedo played it to perfection.

The only reason I think vilgax is scared of Ma Vreedle is because ma scared Vilgax as a kid somehow and he’s just emotionally scarred now.

Are we not gonna talk about Captain Nemesis in, "To Catch a Falling Star?", which is the darkest episode of the whole franchise?

absolutely love that you guys saw 776 as not being a villain. truthfully I consider him to be the best one in a vacuum, and I think your decision not to rank him was the best move. kudos.

Malware is the only villain to have traumatized Ben so much that he retired from being a hero for a few years.

The lack of Fistrick is disappointing. My favorite joke villain in all of Omniverse because there’s still a degree of menace even in Breakpoint, which is one of my favorite joke episodes of Omniverse.

Hex is a good villain cause with his girl they actually took over the world once. Remember they killed Gwen and imprisoned Ben.

The inktank Ben 10 Villains tier list: the only list where you can find a Newscaster ranked alongside a humanoid Rat, an Alien baby monster, 2 Wizards, and an Octopus-faced alien conqueror
