So exactly how much emotional strength did Lilah hold over Angel? I think the only person at AI that she ever connected with and used to her advantage on an emotional level was Wesley. And that makes her number 6?
And second, it's my own opinion if i think Sark is more villainous that Angelus. No need to come out and attack me for it.
First of all, I'm not attacking I'm pointing out that your reasoning for putting this chap, Sark, above Angelus is absurd. If both these characters were in the same show then you have a point but they were not so on the basis of one having 'Vampire Strength' and one just being human is silly.
Had you argued that this Sark effectively manipulated the 'good guys' better and had them dealing with things in a better way, there would be no issue but you've picked traits, strengths, that are designed for the particular show they are in which means nothing.
It's exactly the same as saying Xander is funnier than Peter Griffin because he is not a cartoon.
Also, lets make this clear, I didn't create this list, I didn't put Lilah at number 6 having said that, emotional strength isn't just using someones emotions against them, it is having the strength to face your own while confronting your enemy or using your opponents emotional state to maniuplate them to work for you.
Lets look at Lilah. She faced off against Angel quite a few times, even though she is scared of him (Angel points this out to her). She successfully manipulates Angel to do things for her by using the people he loves. She has no qualms in doing what needs to be done in order for her to get ahead, even if that means going against the company. She has control over her emotions, she has power and influence, she could be extremely ruthless and she 'is just a human'. And guess what, thats in the same show as Angelus - but I'm not going to suggest she should be higher than him because Angelus kicks ass.
Pretty cool 😛
I don't really agree with Lilah as #6 though cause I never really considered her a villian or evil.. just kinda bitchy!
Then rewatch the show and understand what an evil villain is again.
Bitchy was a character trait if hers but she was a villain (and a bloody good one) for the reasons I mentioned above.
