Okay, for one thing, the only reason those villains were beaten is because they were far too arrogant which was exploited by a hero. That's why they lost. That's what separates the two. And I personally don't get the need to avoid TV Tropes terms. Plus, I was talking about renaming Magnificent Bastards to Chessmasters.

As for Dissonant Serenity, it's not as broad as you think. The ones that certainly don't qualify are those who are prone to extreme fits of rage and throw temper tantrums when things don't go their way i.e. what TV Tropes call Psychopathic Manchildren.
