1. Loki
Loki’s power of illusions earned him the title of God Of Mischief. He is the master of shapechanging. He can alter his and others’ appearances surrounding him. Moreover, he frequently uses the ability to project holograms of himself to trick others.
2. Ego
Ego was a massive brain without a body of any kind. When he first appeared to Star-Lord, he used an avatar that he desired. Therefore, he used his matter-manipulation skills to create a planet around himself. Moreover, he could instantly heal himself.
3. Erik Killmonger
After defeating T’Challa, Erik Killmonger became the King of Wakanda. For that, he had to consume a heart-shaped herb. This herb gave the person super soldier-like abilities. So, all his powers came from consuming this herb. This herb had absorbed radiations coming from vibranium. Therefore, vibranium gave powers to the herb that gave powers to Black Panther and then Killmonger.
4. Ebony Maw
Maw accompanied Thanos in his quest to eliminate half of the population in the galaxy. Ebony Maw was seen using telekinesis throughout his journey in the MCU. Moreover, he was a gifted sorcerer who chose to weaponize his magical abilities in the form of telekinesis.
5. Thanos
We talk of MCU villains and we don’t Thanos? That’s not possible! The Titan has such a physique that it makes him stronger than the Hulk. That too, without using the Infinity Stones!
6. Hela
The Goddess Of Death, Thor-Loki’s sister, Hela was banished by her father Odin for her bloodlust. Hela is incredibly powerful and smart. She has enhanced strength, speed, and she can manifest weapons out of thin air. The weapons include blades, knives, and swords.
7. Emil Blonsky
To fight the Hulk, Emil injected himself with Super-soldier serum. However, that proved ineffective. So, he decided to go ahead with an infusion of Banner’s blood. But, the results were completely opposite and terrible. Emil turned into an abomination mutated due to serum’s and Banner’s blood infusion.
8. Mysterio
Quentin Beck worked under Tony Stark. And you know how it is to work under him. Since he was always thankless and less appreciative, Beck quit the job. After that, he decided to turn himself into a fake superhero from another planet. That’s how Mysterio was born. His main weapon was his weaponized drones. Mysterio could use his intellect to alter his drones’ behavior and programming on the fly.
