Making one of the best examples of a strategic mastermind in all of comics into a mindless thrall was... certainly a choice

Definitely. I like how nowadays they make the big guys smart now. Kind of like Bane from DC. He’s big and strong, but smart. Majority of the time, it’s “Strong, but Dumb.” A good example of that is Rhino from Marvel.

Or killer Croc from DC

Yeah, him too.

Trash villain, in my opinion.

Taskmaster is similar to Dr. doom

How?

The hood, the armor and the mask

Yeah, but that’s just costume design. If they had similar personalities and powers, then that’s another story.

One of the biggest wasted potentials in MCU history.
