Ranking Every Major MCU Netflix Villain From Worst To Best
13. Elektra Natchios (The Defenders)
When Elektra made her MCU debut in season two of Daredevil, she was portrayed as more of an anti-hero. She was an "any means necessary" wild child that contrasted against Daredevil's more disciplined, Catholic guilt-based style of vigilante justice.
After being killed, however, Elektra returned in The Defenders, having been revived by the Hand to take up the mantle of Black Sky, a god-like warrior they worship. And while this new identity may have stripped her of her eccentric personality, it certainly made her a far more ruthless, cold-blooded killer.
She did succeed in killing Stick, after all, which this franchise has made clear is no easy task.
Also, her main arc in The Defenders, which involves Matt trying to get through to her and bring the real Elektra back, is one of the show's biggest strong points. And seeing a completely unchained Elektra doing what she does best is always fun, especially when things come full circle and it becomes apparent that she is loyal to nobody but herself.
