MCU: Every Guardians Of The Multiverse Member Ranked From Worst To Best

8. Killmonger

To say that The Watcher chose five heroes for his team would be slightly inaccurate, as in reality, he chose four heroes and a villain. Erik Killmonger was a villain in the main MCU continuity, and he was a villain in this branch of the multiverse.

After saving Tony Stark from the Ten Rings in Afghanistan, Erik Stevens rose through the ranks of Stark Industries before murdering the man himself, Rhodey, and T’Challa, ultimately stabbing and murdering his way into the Wakandan royal family.

With endless possibilities of people to choose from, this begs the question why would the Watcher choose someone he knew he couldn’t trust? Killmonger had his own agenda from minute one, did nothing to actually help the team, and ultimately stole the Infinity Stones and Ultron’s armour in an attempt to corrupt the team and change his world.

He fought with Arnim Zola for the stones before ultimately being trapped forever in a mini universe. The Watcher saw exactly what was going to happen, so he was a means to the end of separating the stones from Ultron’s body, but he actively did less than nothing to help the team. He certainly wouldn't be invited back for round two.
