User blog comment:BigBadSquid/PE Proposal: Andross/@comment-1396848-20191216054334

Absolutely, This Mad Scientist Ape has systematically wiped out millions through conquest and has enslaved, manipulated, and even destroyed entire planets, (with attempted destrustion of the Lylat System to boot). Even if he had good intentions at one point his lust for power fully turned Andross to the Dark Side till all of his redeeming qualities were gone.

Andross is in a class of his own on the heinous scale. In comparison to the other two aformentioned villains here, sure the Aparoid Queen definitely counts, and her assimilation plot of infecting and enslaving many innocents to destroy/conquer the Lylat System puts her close behind Andross. And even Scales, though empowered and manipulated by the Ape, still almost completely plotted his own agenda outside Andross command, and with far, far fewer technology, organization, or armies than either Andross or the Queen which is why I believe he also counts. But yes Andross still shoots past them both in terms of depravity and heinous crimes.

Andross is one of my favorite Nintendo villains. Please Masahiro Sakurai, I am begging you I would love to see Andross as a playable Character in the sequel to Smash Ultimate One Day!!!
