It's fair enough that The Black Order needed to be powerful for them to actually matter in Infinity War, but some of that goes a little far and ends up making a previously super-powerful character look like the runt of the Avengers.

Despite the fact that Tony Stark refers to Vision as "evolving" at one point, as soon as he comes to fight Corvus Glaive in the Edinburgh sequence, he's easily bested. In the wake of he and Scarlet Witch learning about the attack on New York from a kebab shop window, Corvus Glaive stabs him near-fatally from behind.

Vision says the blade stopped him from phasing, which makes you wonder what the hell that blade is made of if it's literally more powerful than an actual Infinity Stone. And on top of that, the villain is able to completely ignore the Wakandan shield somehow, suggesting he's basically the most powerful being in this entire movie.
