Malcolm Merlyn/The Dark Archer tested Oliver physically.
Slade Wilson/Deathstroke tested Oliver emotionally.
Ra's al Ghul tested Oliver morally.
Damien Darhk tested Oliver spiritually.
Adrian Chase/Prometheus tested Oliver psychologically.
Ricardo Diaz/The Dragon tested Oliver socially.
Emiko Queen/The Green Arrow tested Oliver personally.
Mobius/The Anti-Monitor tested The Green Arrow.
Exactly good explanation
Anti-Monitor tested Olivers self-sacrifice/selflessness
Exactly! That is the meaning of the Green Arrow! The Hood and the Arrow were extensions of Oliver’s pain and trauma from the island. The Green Arrow was supposed to be a representation of his courage, compassion, selflessness, and loyalty.
The Anti Montitor wasn't a main villain in Arrow season 8 , there was no main villain in Arrow season 8 , u got get over that
@@yd-tn9rg The Anti Montitor wasn't a main villain in Arrow season 8 , there was no main villain in Arrow season 8 , when are you people gonna get that
I will forever be grateful that Damien Darhk found his stride in Legends, Neal McDonough is too good of an actor to not have a starlight of a role
He was fantastic in the role, will always been remembered for Darhk
The main villain of the season who gets screen time every episode isn't a starlight? But him being apart of a 3 villain group is a starlight tho? Makes no sense.
@@dgx8009his role was so much better in legends and his character actually worked for that show, in arrow he was very out of place and felt like a wrong fit.
Stimmt aber ich finde in Arrow haben die Autoren seinen Charachter irgendwie versaut. Das ist in Legends of Tomorrow viel viel viel besser. In Arrow war es allein das Drehbuch. Neal McDonough war in beiden Serien absolut Phenomenal !!!!!!!!!!
Adrian chase was perfect
I agree he was able to mentally break Oliver in a way that no other villain could
@@evannewhouser7679 fax he almost broke Oliver to the point where he almost stopped being the green arrow
He pissed me off so much 😂😂 but it shows how unstoppable he was for a time
He was the hardest guy to outsmart.
He killed his own wife.
Prometheus/Adrian Chase was so good. That mental torture scene, and how despite not being physically stronger than Green Arrow Prometheus was always 10 steps ahead, so goood!
On top of that green arrow has been trained to be able to withstand mental strain and he broke him
Ehhh he really accomplished nothing as a villain though, the only thing he did was kill Williams mom…That’s it lmao
@@2MuchQuenton I'll take an interesting villain with a captivating story with a strong personality and motives than some mass murdering psychopath, shits boring af.
Slade is the best villain. His rivalry is the most personal.
SeanTheMan1 ?????? slades fake gf (who was fucking oliver anyway) got killed in a no win 50/50 situation
prometheus’ dad was literally fucking shot by oliver ?????
does personal mean something different to the mentally challenged??
@SeanTheMan1 Prometheus did what Slade couldn't. Made oliver accept killing for sport. Although imma Slade fan but god damn Hail TO PROMETHEUS!
tHrEe nAmE cHaNgEs aLlOwEd eVeRy 90 dAyS Finally someone that is normal. People are just saying that slade is the best because he is deathstroke
I agree
I like chase the best but yeah salade is definitely top three
Prometheus is the greatest......
Hands down, he broke Oliver, and was just awesome.......
on my opinion deathstroke is a bit better
but its just my opinion
Deathstroke tbh was the coolest villain and in my opinion one of the best characters in the arrow
Exactly
Adrian broke Oliver while slade took everything he cared about
Take into account Prometheus was the main villain for one of the highest rated episode in the history of IMDb with the series finale of season 5.
1. Malcom Merlyn
2. Deathstroke
3. Prometheus
4. Ra's Al Ghul
5. Fyers
6. Konstantine Kovar
7. Anthony Ivo
8. Cayden James
9. Ricardo Diaz: s7
10. Anti Monitor
11. Damien Darkh
12. Ricardo Diaz: s6
13. Emiko Queen
14. General Shrieve
15. Baron Reiter
100: Felicity: s4
Malcolm and Slade are the best villains in Arrow.
same for me but Prometheus and Olliver rivalry good not great
Felicity was never a main villain she was the love of Oliver's life get it right
Marvin Moore r/wooooosh stupid
I would set Kovar higher on the list
The funny was that just as I thought there couldn't be a more badass/savage villain than Deathstroke, Prometheus comes out of nowhere, has someone hold his beer, and completely amuses the hell out of me for an entire season..... 🤘
Badass/ savage is the Vigilante
7. Emiko (bad rivalry with Oliver and boring storyline)
6. Damien Darhk (good villain but poor writing)
5. Ra’s Al Ghul ( good villain and ok writing)
4. Diaz (great villain and writing but poor introduction)
3. Malcolm Merlyn (can’t explain but he’s amazing)
2. Deathstroke (great flashback introduction and he’s amazing)
1. Prometheus (amazing, he just broke Oliver, okay motive, but the way he executed it was very well)
uh her story wasn't boring it was great
and they had a great rivalry
@@marvinmoore2080 🤢🤮 Emiko was so bad
@@iAmAlwaysCreepy uh no she was incredible and I absolutely love her and don't be hated because she was a woman and that's my opinion
Marvin Moore They’re not hating because she’s a woman, it’s because she’s a terrible character
I think if you take everything into account, Slade is number 1. The backstory with him and Oliver just makes it so much better that to me, no other villain is even close.
The motivation was weak. The Shado love story felt forced (from Slade’s perspective) and the idea that the Mirakuru was influencing Slade’s decisions (as confirmed in S5) makes his motivations and actions as Deathstroke less villain-y. Whereas Prometheus was self-conscious and hellbent on ruining Oliver every step of the way. He killed himself just to get back at Oliver.
Deathstoke is by far the best arrow villain... but Prometheus and Malcolm Merlin (S1) are close
The Vigilante is far the best villain
Agreed.
Lawrence Herrod nod he’s not obviously he isn’t because it ended up being Dinah’s boyfriend who we didn’t know
Kyle Martin is day Prometheus is the best only problem is to me more people should have died on the island to have a greater impact.
Kyle Martin I said slade’s the best villain but Prometheus and Malcolm Merlin would’ve been closer to the top of they had a stronger impact..
My list
7. Emiko Queen
6. Damien Dahrk
5. Ras Al Ghul
4. Ricardo Diaz
3. The Dark Archer
2. Deathstroke
1. Prometheus
PrometheusTV nice list
I kinda think emiko is better than Damien. He imo was the worst. At least she had a suit and better reason and rivalry with Oliver and a much better army of ninth circle than ghosts. However she would have been the best villain if instead it was a half brother than half sister as male to male would have been best rivalry due to reason and more physical threat.
8. The Vigilante
yessir
Wassup
i loved ricardo diaz , in season 6 and 7 , especially the damn slabside redemption episode that is one of my favorite arrow episodes ever
His voice is just so relaxing
How he’s just a generic mob boss
@@theAverageJoe25 he was badass though
@@theAverageJoe25 For me, he was a pretty terrifying villain. His presence on screen felt similar to Kingpin, not as good as Kingpin but he felt similar to him. I think he was a pretty underrated bad guy.
@@arborealj6639 he would of been perfect if they kept the whole league assassins training from the comics, but kept his personal vendetta, character, and acting from Season 7 episode seven all the way through season 6b and season 7a and kept his skills and strength without needing the serum but already being at that level with serum without needing the serum in the first place. That would of been an excellent way to introduce a new villain who was very mob bossy but yet on par with Oliver queen, Talia, and raz aghul in skill level. I would of adored that season
1 - Prometheus
2 - Deathstroke
3 - Malcom Merlyn
4 - Ras Al Ghul
5 - Ricardo Diaz
6 - Damian Darkh
7 - Emiko Queen
8 - Vigilante
@@lawrenceherrod5291 Vigilante is not a main villian, he is not even a villian he is a anti-hero
I'd switch Prometheus with Deathstroke, and Ricardo with Damien
Agreed about Chase. Compared to all the villains Oliver had fought over the series run Chase was the most like him and in a lot of ways he’s a lot of what Oliver could have been himself.
Malcolm Merlyn for sure. The way he is woven into Oliver's life and the way he keeps that grounded image but also a real threat is just amazing. No magic, no bullshit. Just a very real physical threat to Oliver.
14:50 is my favorite scene and still gives me chills!
I'm so sad to see this show go. Prometheus is still my favorite though!
My list is:
1. Prometheus
2. Deathstroke
3. Dark Archer
4. Ricardo Diaz
5. (I don't got one)
The Vigilante
No worries deathstroke is still my number 1.
Agree Prometheus is best villain for green arrow but Slade Wilson is still fan favourite
@@mace2394 At 5 I think it would be rah al ghul
Prometheus was an amazing villain he had great motive, and was unlike anything Oliver had faced
1. Best Main Villain in Arrow; Oliver Queen, he is his own villain, this whole show was about him improving, Diggle said multiple times Oliver became his own villain and I feel he was.
Chicken Squad dude just Shut up
I knew someone would be cringey about it...
it was just something about Chase and Queen constantly being in each other's presence when they didnt wear the hood was brilliant.
Season 4 is the biggest villain of them all
the comic book connoisseur you mean felicity ??
@@Titan-ks1xd no, he means that the season itself is Oliver's best villain lol
@@user-sy6ek6rv7v idk if i should whoosh this or not
Oh I misread that comment 😂😂איתמר עינת
Yeah with Felicity being the main villain
8- Emiko Queen
7- Damián Dhark
6- Anti Monitor
5- Ricardo Díaz
4- Ra al ghul
3- Dark archer
2- Prometheus
1- Deathstroke
9. The Vigilante
@@lawrenceherrod5291 he's not a Main villain
That’s a great list
This is the true list, you're a person of culture
@@lawrenceherrod5291 whats with you and the vigilante bro? i seen you on the other vid always mentioning him. you wanna smash him or som?
Prometheus is totally the best arrowverse villain,Deathstroke comes to the close second.Loved every minute of the 5th season
Where's Felicity?
She was the big bad of season 4.
Felicity wasn't a villain
@@supergirlvideoclips894 she wasn't the big bad in season 4 that was Damien Darhk
@@supergirlvideoclips894 and she wasn't a villain at all she was a good person
and that's why she wasn't on this list because she wasn't a main villain she was the good girl
i have a new appreciation for diaz after rewatching. that scene where he sends hits out on every member of the team and their families all at once was intense and him having all of star city under his thumb actually made me feel like the main characters were in danger where as in other seasons i havent really felt that
Ras al ghul is so high! Thank you, my friend!
I'm not mad at Ricardo Diaz season 6 placement he was an interesting villain however he would have been. However the anti monitor should have been placed lower because of how undeveloped he is and no just because of how fire season 8 was he shouldn't get placed higher than Diaz because of how underwhelming he felt as a character which took me out of the crisis storyline when it came out
Prometheus is the best villain cause everything that happened in his season happened because he wanted it.
Take a shot every time you hear “rivalry”
The whole season I was just too mad about how Prometheus could possibly be as good as Oliver with less than half the time to train that I didn't just enjoy the character
Well Talia trained him. And he clearly was not on Oliver’s level
I finally have met someone that agrees with me😂everyone always puts Slade over Adrian. But from the moment Prometheus showed up in S5 I knew he was going to be excellent. And the turn with it being Adrian Chase when Adrian Chase is “The Vigilante” in the comics that was brilliant. Josh Segarra played the hell out of that role
Agreed
You should do this for his rogues gallery. Mostly because I love China White
I like to think of Prometheus almost as Arrow’s own version of Zoom, since Adrian broke Oliver down to his basic instincts and feelings, and Hunter robbed Barry of his father to further drive him into the dark, and make them the same. Also both of them just have intimidating suits, lol
Great list and I agree with all the ranking except that I would put Emiko below the magic guy of season 4 flashback.
And the Vigilante
I think you underrate cayden James, Ricardo Diaz and season 6 as a whole. It was a really good season and did a good job setting up the amazing Slabside arch
When they cancel ur PBS Kids show and u go on the become the greatest villian on Arrow
Love seeing the praise for Prometheus, even though I personally like Deathstroke more.
Omg I love Prometheus. He’s so amazing!!!! My fav Arrowverse villain of all time! I even like him more than RF personally!
For this list I include how they were outside of just their respective season
14.Baron Reiter
15. General Shrieve
12. Emeko Queen
11. Cayden James
10. Anti-Moniter
9. Constantine Kovar
8. Ricardo Diaz
7. Anthony Ivo
6. Fyers
5. Ra’s al Ghul
4. Damien Darkh (includes LOT)
3. Malcom Merlin
2. Adrien Chase
1. Slade Wilson
I agree, good taste bro.
13:46 I had forgotten that Detective Douche briefly appeared on Arrow.
Damien Darhk was a badass main villain in, he nearly destroyed Team Arrow
It's crazy how I like 100% agree with this list a lot of ppl forget Prometheus, but he was such a good antagonist.
Malcolm Merlyn appeared the episode before Edward Fyers
Chronologically no
I used to like deathstroke more than Prometheus but now after rewatching arrow season 5 holy shit Prometheus is taking that number 1 spot and for those who say he ain’t that strong he bested Oliver in battle which is not easy to say the least
I thought it was cool how in season 6 it showed the motivation of slade by shado telling him he has to make Oliver suffer
I like Cayden James, I haven't seen that season yet but I love the actor so I think that could make me enjoy the character. He's essentially the character from person of interest.
Ben lynus
Prometheus is the best because Oliver never actually stopped him. Adrian was always 10 steps ahead and even though when he blew up the island it didn't result in the death of all his friends as intended, it did kill his son's mom. Being that Prometheus wanted Oliver to kill him, and thus, kill his friends, you could argue that he actually threw the fight, and that it was possible that he was a better fighter as well.
Adrian was never on Oliver's level of combat skill, but he also didn't want or need to be. He didn't plan on surviving his vendetta, so he never needed to beat Oliver in combat. It was actually almost funny seeing Oliver's brief moment of victory shattered when Adrian shot himself. Oliver thought he had won...
so sad arrow ended I have rewatched it so many times
I think this list is perfect adrian has always been my favorite villain on arrow
Prometheus is number 1
*Shocker*
The Vigilante is number 2
Lawrence Herrod We get it you like vigilante
Ra’s introduction was sick af, I feel that if they played it better in the second half, he would be comparable (in terms of writing) to Malcolm Merlyn. It should had been Oliver, Malcolm and Thea fighting Ra’s, with Ra’s only losing because Oliver promised to take his place.
The season 6b Ricardo Diaz is said in the video to be 7b
I Love your Channel
In Review: Arrow crisis on infinite earths: part four synopsis: stuck in the vanishing point, the paragon search for a way to escape. Michael Keaton was supposed to Appear in crisis on infinite earths. Arrowverse's crisis on infinite earths crossover is coming to Blu-ray, but with a catch.
no he wasn't
@@marvinmoore2080 alright
@Surya Singh yeah I know both its actually tell me about the flash season 6 episode 11 even the Arrowverse crossover and supergirl and batwoman and superman and crisis infinite earth's crossover it's helped me
I agree with ur top 3!!! But I might swap around 1 & 2
14:55 One of the best quotes ever. Adrian was the Joker to Arrows batman
this actually reminds me wtf happened to slade arrow is over now and they didnt even show him
You misses out on Brother Blood from Season 2 first half
You should rank all crossover villains next
Damion Darhk is one of my favs
I gotta be honest my favorite Arrow villain was the first Count Vertigo, idk if that's unpopular or not
Tobias church should b on here he’s one of my favorites even tho he’s only there for five six episodes
Pometheus is the BEST villain of all time because he was the only one that can make Oliver feel powerless and the ONLY villain that begged Oliver to kill him and didn't, and us not forget that in the last episode he said if he kills him, he kills his friends, if he don't he'll kill his son.
I do wish you included Vigilante from season 5 and 6 but I guess he wasn't a main villain but I think he was pretty cool.
If he was gonna include a non main villan maybe black siren
Have you seen the Birds of prey movie?
If so will you do a review of it if not what are your thoughts on it
I'll be seeing it on Thursday. I won't be reviewing it but I will make a different video related to it.
slade was awesome in season two and he got better every time he showed up after
You have forgotten China White. Oliver was in difficulty when he fought against her.
1.Deathstroke
2.Prometheus
3.Malcolm Merlyn
4.Ricardo Diaz (s7)
5.Ra's Al Ghul
6.Ivo
7.Konstantin Kovar
8.Fyers
9.The Anti-monitor
10.Ricardo Diaz (s6)
11.Damien Dark
12.Cayden James
13.Emiko
14.Baron Reiter
15.General Shrieve
You forgot Brother Blood who was the main villain in the first half of Season 2
If you were to include John Diggle Jr/ Knockoff Deathstroke, where do you think you’d place him in this list?
Slaaaaaade!!!
I've only seen the first 4 seasons so I can only rank main villains from seasons 1-4. From worst to best
Damian Darhk
Ra's Al Ghul
Malcolm Merlyn
Deathstroke
I loved Darhk but in Legends. He wasn't a good villain in Arrow
Dante Caudillo I agree he’s the best in arrow
Watch season 5 :) it’s worth
ur missing out watch season 5
Watch 5 really good I done what you done but just finished 5 and it is amazing
Season 7 and 8 aren't available in German, so I only rank the villains from season 1 to 6.
7. Cayden James
6. Diaz
5. Dhark
4. Adrian chase
3. Malcom merlyn
2. Rhas al ghul
1. Death stroke
Can you rank the crossover threats?
My list including the backflash villains (havent seen last season)
Deathstroke
Malcolm Merlyn
Prometheus
Damian Dark (especially thanks to Legends)
Dr Ivo
Edward Fyers
Ricardo Diaz
Kovar
Ras al Ghul
Emiko
Reiter
General Shrieve
I think you underestimate Cayden James. He's not that much of a physical threat but he was able to divide Arrow's team with his own team and he was nearly able to finish his plan thanks to that.
My top 3
1.Adrian (best arrow villain and the best arrowverse villain tied with reverse flash there both awesome🤷🏾♂️)
2. Slade
3. S1 Malcolm
god what a surprise you choose Prometheus as number 1
6:08 I think he made a mistake with Richardo Diaz where description says 7b instead of 6b
I still can't believe they had the HIGHLANDER and he wasn't the main villian 😧
Adrian Chase AKA Prometheus is the best & the most underrated villain of Arrowverse. He was perfect ✨.He challenged Oliver psycologically to the point where Oliver was ready to quit being Green Arrow. He got through to him like no one else did. He broke him completely. He is the only villain Arrow couldn't kill. He killed himself to prove his point, to cause him pain even after his death. Even till the end he was always 10 steps ahead of Oliver. The actor Josh Seggara, played it wonderfully, he was perfect for this role. But the writers spoiled it all in S06 where only Samantha was dead & Adrian's death was for nothing only because they didn't have the guts to kill that many characters in the show. If they did Oliver would have been broken, depressed & lonely as Adrian said "I think you are one loss away from being destroyed". Season 5 was my favourite.❤ Permetheus was my favourite.❤
Overall a pretty solid list, although I'd rearrange the top three a bit.
1. Slade Wilson/Deathstroke
2. Malcolm Merlyn
3. Adrian Chase/Prometheus
Other than that, I pretty much agree with the rest.
In my opinion Prometheus is 1, Slade is 2 and Malcolm who is my favourite character is 3rd
Ricardo Diaz was so far ahead always and the fact that he took control of most of the city without anyone knowing
To add to what you were saying about Prometheus- every single main villain before season 5, whenever Oliver fought them for the first time, that villain absolutely dominated the fight. They outclassed Oliver physically. Chase was different. While Oliver didn’t outright defeat him physically in their first fight, both men were about equal. Chase’s lack of physical ability compared to his predecessors emphasizes what makes him truly dangerous: his strategic mind and ability to manipulate Oliver’s emotions.
Slade wilson and Adrian Chase were the best of the best for me. Their rivalry was just amazing in the show.
Great list, agree on all but top 3 who are really just interchangeable. John Barrowman's performance is just second to none, my top 3 are:
- Malcolm Merlyn
- Deathstroke
- Prometheus
Agree on all the rest
I agree that Liam neeson is a good ra al ghul because he played the good character like qui gon jinn
I actually liked Caden James it was nice to see a villain who was not tough and can’t fight but he should have not been like a main villain.
Mr Blank was there for only a few episodes but I would rank him as the second best villain.
W
I agree, Prometheus is the best villain, plus his mask and his voice when he wears it is scary as heck.
I love the anti moniter his like oliver's abbs
Which villain do you think annoyed Oliver the most? I think it would probably be Adrian Chase. That guy annoyed the hell out of Oliver
I think Deathstroke is the best but him, merlyn and prometheus are great
Lord above I miss this show
Don't forget the two honorable mentions: S4 Felicity (her hissy fit killed Central City in one timeline) and Marc Guggenheim.
I agree with all your choices except for the top 2. I mean Prometheus was really good overall and I really mean that he was awesome, but Deathstroke in my opinion was a much better villain overall and he was very well developed and there is something about Manu Bennett's version that even though I am not entirely sure what it's, it makes him my favorite live action Deathstroke ever so I would have to say that this is the top 2...
1. Deathstroke
2. Prometheus
Just my opinion but either way, great job!
And the Vigilante
@@lawrenceherrod5291 THE VIGILANTE IS NOT A VILLAIN XD
Josh Segarra acted Adrian Chase. Though I’m sure he did a good job, he then proceeded to act as Pug in She Hulk. What a HUGE step down. 💀💀
