My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic - See how amazing he really is?

He did nothing besides roar, scream and snarl, and he barely talked. He hardly showed any personality or clear motivations. He didnt actively plot against the heroes. And he didn't live past two episodes But did he really have to? You see, King Sombra has more of what many MLP villains thus far lack: presence. It was his presence alone that made sure the Crystal Ponies remained miserable. It was his presence that kept them from remembering where the Crystal Heart was, or going to the one place it was hidden because they were too scared of him. Just by being there Princess Cadance was left to suffer for days on end, even with her beloved Shining Armor by her side And even then, he still tried to make sure the heroes didn't have their way. He took away Shining Armor's powers, causing Princess Cadance to suffer even more. He left traps that those without the courage and wits to stand up to them could not pass. And even though he wasnt always physically present, his influence remained, and it left a very heavy impact on everyone who dared to stand against him. He also managed to do what no other villain on the show has done before: make Twilight swallow her own pride as a means to defeat him. From everywhere he went to everywhere his name was merely mentioned, he caused nothing but pain and suffering. And not a single one of us knows why And yet the lot of you have the gall to call him "wasted potential", just because he barely talked or took action, had no clear characterization, and didn't live up to any of your lofty expectations. But I'll be fair; even I expected him to be Sauron as he was before he was slain by Isildur, not Sauron as he appeared in the whole "Lord of the Rings" trilogy Sometimes, less really is more. That is why he is, in a way, a far greater villain than any of us could have ever anticipated. 11 minutes ago by Immblueversion history Reply

Well said, OP! Now that I think about it, each villains are different and attacks the protagonists in different ways.

I just REALLY like villain dialogue. That's why I love Discord, he doesn't shut up.
Sombra fills his role well, it's just that annoying thing called personal opinion messing with us again.
