Shoutout to @LordoftheBoard and @FostertheMeeple for the idea! A board game channel talking about what games you should be bringing to the table Email for collaboration or contact: drewtabletalk@gmail.com
Yzma is my fav I think. Gothel has a higher skill ceiling but probably the best designed in the game. Scar can be tough but he’s a ton of fun. Evil queen is a ton of fun
I played Villainous once and was underwhelmed. It didn't stop me from buying the Marvel version though! Now it just sits there on my shelf of shame, threatening to snap half my games out of existence.
My top 10 10. Cruella (love collecting puppies. Still havent win with her but is always a blast) 9. Malleficent (the simplest and easiest but still complex enough to be a challenge) 8. Yzma (as you said chaotic. Love the hide and seek mechanic) 7. Ratigan (always a blast to set for the robot queen while simultaneously prepare to vanquish Basil) 6. Pit ( I love everything about his play style and his deck) 5. Jafar( my first villain pick when I bought the game and still one of the best) 4. Evil Queen( so unique and different. I can understand why people love her. I can't argue.) 3. Hook (I LOVE HOOK PLAYSTYLE SO MUCH) 2. HADES (I don't care what anyone says... Hades is awesome. Yes he has a slow play style but he is so satisfied to win as him. My favorite moment was winning a six man villainous game as him. So good.) 1. Dr Fecillier (My main man. He is so good. And he is random chance of winning with his extra deck make him so interested and fun. I never get bored with him.) I haven't play the newest expansion but since it has syndrome I will buy it for sure. Great ranking. I will subscribe for sure. Can't wait for your future content!!!
A potential future top 10👀 You gotta look Pixar now that they’ve expanded. Randall Boggs, Chick Hicks, Zurg, and Sid could be great. Hans and Shere Khan seem like the only popular Disney villains left. It’s dope seeing them do Star Wars though
What about Oogie Boogie from a Nightmare Before Christmas!! Or Te Ka from my favorite Disney cartoon, Moana. Mayor Bellwether from Zootopia! Those are my picks for the next set ;) - Daniel
I like to play Syndrome but there is one thing that makes me RAGE in like 1/3 games I play with him. Can you guess what it is? THAT WAS TOTALLY WICKED A lot of the time on the turn right before I would activate the remote to win, I get fated. Not only does that card make me go through my entire deck again to get the remote, but it also kills every single ally I have out so it's easier to get overwhelmed by heroes. Before you say to play the remote and activate it on the same turn, typically the omnidroid v10 will be at downtown metroville, covering up the play a card action you have there, and leaving behind only a gain 3 power and fate. It'd be much more fair imo if it put the remote into your deck, 5th from the top instead of discarding it. I say 5th from the top because if it was 4th someone could discard their hand and you would play not a sidekick to draw it right away. So it still takes 1 or 2 turns to get to, but doesn't completely ruin the game for Syndrome. Edit: Another solution, since Syndrome's lair is his most useless location that I rarely move to, is to replace his vanquish action there with an activate action, so he doesn't (usually) have to be at downtown metroville to win. This makes it possible to play the remote and activate it to win on the same turn to avoid that one fate card.
Yeah it can be tough to avoid that. Part of what I love in Villainous is downplaying your threat level and raising others if you play 3. Or planning for a big turn to win.
Y is my boi Hades always at the bottom of everyone else’s ranking :( . I find if you really use the mortality potions as often as possible you can really mess ppl up. ( if you don’t get them yah its a little hard) still my fav tho
@@tabletalk4729 you can fate her 1 to 2x per turn and still win. while a lot of the villains got set back 3 to 5 turns to recover from a single fate card.
Thanks for the rundown. I've got all six boxes but haven't fully played all the villains yet. I just need more friends interested in this game!
I get that feeling. It’s a great 2 player game if you find just one friend. Plus there’s an unofficial solo mode on BGG.
I'm glad I finally get to see my girl The Evil Queen finally get her due 💜🖤💛 love the videos!
Thanks so much! Appreciate the love
Great job Andrew!! Keep up the amazing work!
Thanks! This means a lot!
About where would you rank Oogie Boogie?
One of the early times I played this game I forgot that your minions go away as they fight heroes. Oops. 🤣
Yzma is my fav I think. Gothel has a higher skill ceiling but probably the best designed in the game. Scar can be tough but he’s a ton of fun. Evil queen is a ton of fun
Hola Mundo Waco mandame un saludo
@@metacross2826 saludos !
I had my first play of Villainous last week. We played two players Scar vs Izma. And it was suuuper close.
Who won?
@@tabletalk4729 Scar

Yeah it’s much better at 2 or 3. It really is helpful if everyone loves the theme and maybe add some Disney music in the background.
@@tabletalk4729 I did play a massive six player game so maybe I should give it a try. - Daniel
This is probably the best game I’ve ever played. Very competitive especially in 1v1
What a groovy shirt!
I try
You have very interesting rankings my personal list is Hades, Pete, Cruella, Hook, and Syndrome those are my top 5
Some of my fav villains from the movies!
Idk how you like hades😅 I have never been able to win with him and playing him drives me crazy haha
@@glassman345 I just enjoy the move combos and I have won with 4 Titans before.

Very similar list. I love Hades but he’s so tough. I think he’ll rise for me.
What Villains would you like to see next? For me, I want Frollo, Shan Yu, and Shere Khan
Shere Khan would be dope

I want to see Yokai (Big Hero Six), MCP (Tron)/ Auto (Wall-E), and Gantu (Lilo and Stitch)

Well, good news! The remote is a remote, not an item and is unaffected by TWTW
@@zlay7770 How the heck did I not notice that for so long lmao
My group has a house rule that Scar can win with a succession pile of 14 strength. We’ve found he’s a lot more enjoyable that way.
Great rule!
Y is my boi Hades always at the bottom of everyone else’s ranking :( . I find if you really use the mortality potions as often as possible you can really mess ppl up. ( if you don’t get them yah its a little hard) still my fav tho
I love him but to me he’s just so hard to win as.
You dnt cry durimg toy story 3 lol? I thought Everyone does
Lol I was close
i kinda guessed your bottom 4.
i wish they were given less punishing fate cards.
as for queen of hearts, i just banned in using her lols
She’s really easy to win. Not a difficult fate deck. Yeah still love trying the trickier ones too though
@@tabletalk4729 you can fate her 1 to 2x per turn and still win.
while a lot of the villains got set back 3 to 5 turns to recover from a single fate card.
@@jaydeestrongAnd Syndrome gets set back way more turns from "that was totally wicked"
@@Gloom_Shroom_Gaming yeah that whole box was particularly bad tbh
@@jaydeestrong I already commented about that card, but just had to vent even more anger in a reply lol
nahh mother gothel is number 1
I spy Disney Sorcerer's Arena - how do you like it?
There's one more villain you forgot to mention, and that's Oogie Boogie from The Nightmare Before Christmas.
That expansion dropped after the video but maybe will eventually add an edit.
