Made another tierlist

This one's about how evil the killers are, I saw somebody post a list like this a while ago and I decided to make my own.

I accidently put Ghostface higher than blight, which was a mistake but I'm way too lazy to change it.

    listen, blight was certainly a sociopath, but pig is type to put razor blades into halloween candy, no? i think I'd put her above him.

    pov: you are THE SHAPE of EVIL INCARNATE but you are less evil than K-Pop man

    Probably should've put him above trickster, I was actually going to put Myers in the "can't comprehend morality" tier, but I didn't think it felt right.

    I'd change it honestly, but I'm really lazy.

    Idk honestly, tbh I don't really know too much about blights lore other than the basics, but didn't he like experiment on a bunch of people and they died in really horrific ways?

    Talbot was a horribly evil man, blight is a mindless creature.

    Myers is weird. On one had evil incarnate should put him in the highest tier, maybe even his own. But like what's evil? Demogoron isn't evil but the concept doesn't exist to it so is Myers a person who understands evil but always chooses to do it? Is it even a choice at that point? Do we have free will?

    Myers debatably shouldn't even be on this list because there's no way of judging him based on his intents because he's never given any in the originals beyond being cursed to do so, which means he's a victim of evil or never has a choice in his actions in which case he can't really be evil he's just a puppet of a curse. "Pure evil" icks me so much when the character isn't shown to have free will because then it's not evil it is a set of actions they would have always taken regardless of situations like a robot, robots aren't evil they're just told to do evil and do it.

    As for the knight, he's kind of in the same category as deathslinger. Taken in as a slave and shown that selfishness, honour amongst thieves and violence are what get you by. You could argue evil but I would then say trapper is evil, both idolising and learning the worse parts from their childhood and twisting into adulthood to justify mass murders, knight just takes it to another level.

    I'd put the Ghostface in worse the worse, he actively hurts and kills for personal benefit. There's no alternative motive like family honour or science he does it because he likes the thrill and messing with people. I also don't see why Frank isn't worse of the worse either, he manipulates others to kill and hurt people because he wants to control them and unlike the other members of the legion, except Julie if I'm right, doesn't hesitate to do bad things. Personally what separates evil from the worse is a lack of a greater motive. If someone does evil for satisfaction or the fun of it that's the worse they can do, compared to doing it for family, science or some form of penance for the victim. There is a case that the worse evil is the kind that doesn't know its evil but that's something I disagree with.

    I definitely agree with you on Micheal, I really didn't know where to place him. I view him more as a force of nature than a man, he has no personality, or any traits other than murdering. I actually agree with you on all of your takes. Especially the legion one, I was ranking all of the members not just frank, but Him and Julie belong in the worst of the worst tier (debatably as she was manipulated by frank I'm pretty sure), I think I'd put Joey and Susie lower than those too, although I still wouldn't really know as to where to put them. As they were definitely manipulated by frank, but they did go along with him very willingly to murder an innocent man.

    I don't know if I necessarily agree with you on Ghostface, but I see where you're coming from. I just don't know if he's on the same tier of evil as the rest of the killers in the "worst of the worst" tier. I definitely agree that Danny is a very evil person and kills people for.his own benefit.

    Let's define our terms what is evil to you op?

  • Wexton
    Wexton Member Posts: 496

    That's a complicated question, but I'll try and explain it as best as I can. What makes a killer evil for more is someone who kills for their own benefit, someone who hurts the innocent and doesn't care about what they're doing, I'll use Huntress as an example for someone who isn't evil. She has undoubtedly done very horrible things, murdering a lot of people, but I can't bring myself to think she's evil, she doesn't know any better, she knows nothing about the real world. Same for killers like hillbilly, and bubba, they do evil actions, but they aren't necessarily evil themselves. Other killers have been manipulated into being evil like trapper, he was shaped into a horrible person by his father, and I do think he's evil but it's important to remember that they were manipulated into being that way by others. There could be some redemption there.

    And I'll use trickster as an example for the evil side, he kills because he wants to. He doesn't care about his actions, he thinks it's a game, putting the screams of his victims in his music. He enjoys all the pain and suffering that he causes, he wasn't manipilated to be this way, he's an irredeemable monster and he loves that about himself.

    I'm not the best at explaining things through text, but I hope you can get where I'm coming from and what I think being evil is.

    Tbf though, Trickster has some very disturbing intentions.
