Villain Ball	comment	"Evil sows the seeds of its own destruction", sayeth the fortune cookie. Regardless of how Genre Savvy, intelligent, or pragmatic they might otherwise be, villains tend to inherently draw heroic attention to themselves that leads to their demise, or at least the demise of their Evil Plan. Even if their success is seemingly assured, the villain can't seem to help but do something evil that serves no purpose other than giving The Hero the extra motivation and opportunity to wreck everything, and he will. Basically, they're saddled with carrying their own version of the Idiot Ball: the Villain Ball. Sure signs that the Villain Ball is in play: The villain adds needless complications to their plan for the sake of tormenting others. They may claim this is all for the sake of averting attention, but it tends to have the opposite effect. The villain insists on taking care of something personally when there's no reason an expendable mook couldn't do it, possibly due to the belief that he's Surrounded by Idiots. The villain decides to dispatch the hero via a grisly and complicated Death Trap over more pragmatic solutions, ignoring that methods with more complex working parts are more likely to fail as opposed to simple solutions. A common result of this is Within Arm's Reach, where a character in one of these traps or fights "just happens to" grab something that allows them to fight back — even though they're usually doing so in full view of said villain. The villain takes one of the hero's Love Interests hostage in exchange for the MacGuffin and immediately goes back on the deal, ignoring that a vengeful hero is likely a greater threat than a merely pissed-off one. It seems they just can't help themselves, they are compelled to stop in their tracks to threaten innocent puppies just to prove that they are a Card-Carrying Villain. Inevitably, it's their own inherent Fatal Flaws that lead to their downfall, sometimes by Humiliation Conga. This may even lead to an apropos Karmic Death or Cool and Unusual Punishment. Depending on the effectiveness of the villain in question, this can sometimes be a Justified Trope due to the Anthropic Principle. It's not as worrying with a baddie that's error-prone or lacking in foresight, but what if the heroes have to contend with a beast like David Xanatos? In dire circumstances, Evil Only Has to Win Once, and evil winning means there's no longer a show/game/whathaveyou; sometimes to give the heroes a realistic chance, the supervillain just needs to fumble. To make that fumble believable is often one of the most daunting tasks for a storywriter, and the spectrum of mishandling it ranges from Ass Pull at best to Deus ex Machina at worst. When a previously composed and unflappable villain picks up the Villain Ball and runs with it as soon as his plans start going awry (which, naturally, only hastens his downfall), it's a Villainous Breakdown. When a villain's career is one long string of grabbing Villain Balls and facing all too predictable consequences, you're probably looking at Stupid Evil. Not to be confused with Villain Baal, which is about evil (wrongly) ascribed to the deity Baal or its namesake.

Villain Ball / int_14494034	comment	Abraxas (Hrodvitnon): Alan Jonah handles it just by keeping the newborn San-Vivienne Graham hybrid Titan caged against its will and running cruel experiments on it — it never seems to occur to Jonah that doing this to such a creature will surely bite him in the ass once the hybrid can't be contained anymore. Nevermind how this clearly shows Jonah hasn't learned anything from the events of Godzilla: King of the Monsters (2019) where he tried to control the hybrid's "parent", Ghidorah.

Villain Ball / int_1869a077	comment	Samurai Jack: Multiple episodes of feature some variation of a plot where Aku forces a person or a group of people into deceiving Jack and luring him into a trap to save their own lives or get some desired MacGuffin from him. Inevitably, this plot will succeed, but Aku always fails to uphold his end of the bargain. Which, of course, leads to the dog biting back and helping Jack escape. Had Aku ever just swallowed his pride and not screwed somebody over in exchange for the death of his most hated and dangerous enemy -or just waited to do it until Jack had been dealt with- he would have won. At least one episode suggested that Aku, being a living personification of evil, is literally incapable of not kicking the dog even when it would be beneficial for him not to do so. One episode has him actually manage to steal Jack's sword, the one thing in all existence capable of harming and killing him. Does he destroy it, or order one of his goons to bury it on the other side of the planet, or hurl the damned thing into the stratosphere? No, he decides to dick around and use the sword to kill Jack. Granted he couldn't have reasonably known the sword couldn't hurt Jack, but given how much of a pain in his arse Jack has been and how clever and resourceful the samurai is he really shouldn't have even offered the scant possibility of Jack managing to get his sword back. When Aku finally manages to capture Jack in the series finale, he decides to broadcast his execution to the entire world to make an example out of him. Then he wastes so much time debating (onscreen) about what the most painful way to kill Jack would be, that all of the people Jack has helped over the years have time to fly to his castle and launch an assault to rescue Jack. Aku being Nigh-Invulnerable, they aren't able to do much more than annoy him, but it does provide Jack the distraction he needs to escape.

Villain Ball / int_19c9d11e	comment	Bill, the creator of the Phantom Virus, ends up getting smacked with the ball twice. During the end of the film, he attempts to flee the crime scene despite Mystery Inc. only having vague hints that he may have been involved with the Phantom Virus' creation and hardly enough evidence to convict him with the crime. His other grabbing of the ball (as pointed out by Caddicarus) is more reliant on Fridge Logic, but still applies: since he made the Phantom Virus, he must have had to spend hours programming it, and thus is to blame for all of the Virus' design flaws, including failing to just kill Mystery Inc., constantly making stupid mistakes, and making tons of baseball references, which is what made Mystery Inc. suspect Bill was behind the Virus' creation.

However, he could have simply waited given that the average lifespan of a cat is only about 12-18 years, and after that, he would have gotten the fortune anyway.

That's got conflict of interests written all over it. Hereti Corps carries the Villain Ball less idiotically now that Dr. Schlock has taken over. But in that instance at least, Riff was 'one of her friends' who wanted kill her, so if anything, they should've been alert to the possibility of attacks from him.

Villain Ball / int_1e7bc8cd	comment	Sonic X: Dark Chaos mostly averts this trope - with the major exception of Episode 67. Beelzebub wanted to study Tails' Shroud infection one day, so he goes about it by kidnapping, torturing, and raping Chris and Cosmo... and then gloating about it to Tails when he comes to rescue them. Somewhat justified in this case, since Beelzebub is an utterly sadistic pedophile and narcissistic Mad Scientist rolled up into one. Tsali grabs it in Episode 73. Rather than just blowing up the Blue Typhoon and killing everyone the easy way, he decides to rampage through the ship and meticulously slaughter Sonic and friends one by one. Trinity actually points this out to him... and Tsali retorts that just blowing them up is "way too simple for them." This ends up distracting him at several key moments, letting Tails and Cosmo get away. He also temporarily grabbed it when he took on Super Sonic, Super Shadow, and Super Eric at once because he thought he could win. He was wrong.

Murders his step-nephew out of greed, captures Holmes, tortures him to death and gloats over him. Watson seriously doesn't take too well to this. It ends badly for the knucklehead. You'd think he'd be smart enough not to capture the guy and vice versa. Nope. He does so, which leads to him being killed in cold blood. Also, the captured criminal. You'd think he'd be smart enough to REVEAL Holmes's whereabouts instead of not doing so and begging for remorse after playing a part in it.

Villain Ball / int_23945975	comment	Disney villains in general love tossing this Ball around, as pointed out in this humorous comic post: Maleficent's fatal mistake in Sleeping Beauty was letting Prince Phillip live when she captured him. Had she killed him, her plans would have gone without a hitch. Instead, she wanted to perform a Cruel Mercy by locking him in her dungeon for a hundred years and then release him (assuming he was actually able to live that long) to fulfill his destiny to awaken Aurora. By doing this, it gave Flora, Fauna, and Merryweather a chance to break into the dungeon and free him the moment she left him alone, and ultimately save the day. In 101 Dalmatians, Cruella De Vil would have gotten the fur coat she wanted if she had just stuck with the 84 Dalmatian puppies she bought rather than kidnapping Pongo and Perdita's 15 puppies in addition to those puppies for no reason other than to get back at Roger and Anita for refusing to sell them to her. Not only did this result in Pongo and Perdita coming after their children, but the news about the stolen puppies spread and Cruella was Roger's number one suspect in the investigation. In the end she lost all the puppies, including the ones she bought. Madame Medusa from The Rescuers would have successfully made off with The Devil's Eye diamond if she hadn't decided to store it inside Penny's teddy bear for no apparent reason other than to be mean. If Madame Medusa went through the legal process of adopting Penny instead of kidnapping her and at least pretended to act like a mother she wouldn't keep trying to escape or send a message for help. The Little Mermaid (1989) has Ursula finally obtain the all-powerful trident and become ruler of all the ocean, a power she demonstrates by causing whirlpools and raising ships from the depths. Then she decides to throw the mermaid into the bottom of the whirlpool just to have a little fun sniping her. She's not only poorly wielding the trident with such a weak display, but she also isn't paying attention to what's around her, causing Eric to impale her with a broken bowsprit and killing her. All of which could've been avoided if she just used her control of the water to just drown Eric and slam Ariel into rocks. In Aladdin, everything would have worked out fine for Jafar if he'd simply tossed Aladdin a few coins and sent him on his way rather than double-crossing him after Aladdin retrieved the lamp. Also, in the end Jafar was already the most powerful sorcerer on Earth, more than strong enough to defeat Aladdin. Instead he had to be the most powerful creature and wished to be a genie, with all that entails. Years of planning and hard work for Jafar end up being for nothing with someone else getting his greatest dreams all because he wanted to screw the kid over. For that matter, his entire scheme of arresting Aladdin and disguising himself was flawed. Aladdin's entire world revolved around basically keeping fed with dreams of one day being rich. Jafar could have just as easily gone to him in person promising him amnesty and a solid payoff for his efforts, which he even more easily could have actually given the kid: a single pardon and a bag of gold would have meant nothing to him even as the vizier, let alone the new sultan. He does it again in Aladdin: The Return of Jafar when he praises Iago for successfully serving as The Mole for his plans to get back at Aladdin. Iago already felt guilty, but this was the final straw for him, and he ends up helping the others to stop Jafar once and for all. At the end of The Lion King (1994), when Simba, still blaming himself for his father's death, is dangling from the edge of a cliff, Scar can't resist doing some Evil Gloating and says "I killed Mufasa." Big mistake. And not long after that... Charles Muntz from Up murders people because he thinks they're going to steal the bird he discovered. Even if they did, it would prove the skeleton he brought back to America years ago was real and not a hoax. For that matter, if they really were there to find the bird he could always team up with them, earn their trust by being a valuable ally, and then murder them when they actually found the bird to take it back alone and get all the credit. Lotso from Toy Story 3 has two occasions: Abusing Big Baby turned out not to be such a good idea when Baby sides with the Toys instead of him and they all dump him in the trash. If he'd actually saved Andy's toys from the Incinerator instead of leaving them behind, he'd not only have avoided his Fate Worse than Death, but also could have possibly been redeemed for the cruelty he inflicted on the Sunnyside toys and allowed to stay there in peace. And all he had to do was push one button! He was so unable to accept the idea that anyone could care about him that despite his life being saved earlier by Woody and the gang, he still elected to save his own skin. In Frozen, Prince Hans tells Anna all about his plan to marry her and find a way to get rid of Elsa in order to get the throne and become king. Then he leaves Anna to freeze to death, as opposed to either A) staying in the room until she dies, or B) immediately murdering her— which would have probably avoided Anna's Taking the Bullet. Granted, the latter option was probably one Hans couldn't use because a bloody corpse would've discredited his claims that Anna died in his arms, though he could have smothered her if that posed a problem. Edgar in The Aristocats was upset to learn that his boss, Madame Bonfamille was leaving her inheritance to her cats, and so he planned to drug the cats and leave them outside the city presumably to die so the fortune would revert to him as the will stipulated. However, he could have simply waited given that the average lifespan of a cat is only about 12-18 years, and after that, he would have gotten the fortune anyway. Coco: Held by Ernesto when he made the night he murdered HÃ©ctor into a scene in one of his movies, dialogue and all. If he hadn't done that, HÃ©ctor would have never realized he was murdered and the entire third act of the film wouldn't have happened.

The first part worked, but when Underdog showed up to challenge him, he threatened to smash Lake Michigan on the ground if the hero didn't keep his distance. Underdog called his bluff, so the evil scientist threw it in the air, forcing him to catch it. So Simon threw Lake Superior too. Then he got carried away, and thought seeing Underdog scramble to catch them was fun, so he threw more and more of them. Unfortunately for him, Underdog didn't fail to catch even one, and eventually, Simon had thrown them all. By the time the villain realized he had no more "hostages", it was too late, and the hero was able to clock him.

Meaning that, as his loyal assistant Natalie points out, he can simply go back in time and send himself a USB drive with information on how to repair the Peacock Miraculous, thereby saving Emilie and (by extension herself) from its detrimental effects, without the need of the Ladybug and Cat Miraculous whatsoever. After all, saving his wife is the reason why he became a villain in the first place. Instead of doing that however, he immediately abandons the plan to instead attempt to ambush Ladybug and Rabbit Noir in the present and gain their powers. This naturally fails, resulting in him losing his newfound time travel abilities. When he reveals this to Natalie, she is so taken aback that she quits working for him right then and there.

However, he decides just killing them simply isn't evil enough and so he sends them to the deepest pit of Tartarus instead. Where Hades is, who's certainly powerful enough to take on Faust. Who can now be freed by Wonder Woman and Hawkgirl. Who is certainly willing to team up with them to strike back. Who can teleport all three of them back to face Faust. Literally five minutes later Faust has been defeated and now gets to spend all of eternity being tormented by Hades: he may be a brilliant sorcerer, but he is not a clever man.

They fire a full salvo of massive missiles at the Watchtower which are effectively dropships that are filled with clones of the Ultimen controlled by Galatea, who intends to use the Ultimen as cover while she rigs the Watchtower reactor to explode and kill everyone on board. Why they didn't just fire missiles of the exploding or nuclear variety, which would have blown the Watchtower to high hell a heck of a lot faster and without the possibility of the Leaguers on board being able to defeat the invading Ultimen or stop the reactor from exploding, is anyone's guess. Why Don't You Just Shoot 'Em doesn't even begin to cover their level of villainous idiocy.

Villain Ball / int_35e05f2a	comment	RWBY: Although powerful and intelligent, Cinder Fall's impatience, sadism, and pettiness often sabotage the villains' plans through constant gloating to victims, attempts to steal Maiden powers, and seeking revenge against her enemies. It leads to Ruby maiming her during a Traumatic Superpower Awakening when she delays killing Pyrrha to gloat; it costs the villains the Relic of Knowledge when she sabotages Salem's plan just to go after the Spring Maiden and Ruby; and it costs her the Winter Maiden's power when her gloating allows Fria to fend her off just long enough for help to arrive. In Volume 8, Watts lampshades this during a powerful "The Reason You Suck" Speech that reduces her to tears and forces her to re-evaluate her behavior. And even after that, she still grabs the ball tight in the following fight with Team RWBY, betraying her only combat ally Neo in the middle of the battle, valuing revenge against someone who once threatened her over having the best chance of victory, which contributes to her inability to achieve her main objective of getting the Winter Maiden's powers from Penny.

Villain Ball / int_36de2da	comment	In Loved and Lost, an extended retelling of "A Canterlot Wedding" (see the My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic entry under Western Animation below), Prince Jewelius successfully steals Equestria's throne by double-crossing the Changelings at the last minute, helping Twilight stop them herself, and tricking the public into blaming all the other heroes for the invasion. He then makes himself Equestria's "Holy King Jewelius I", banishes the disgraced heroes (who all now consider themselves to be failures) from Equestria, and manipulates Twilight into becoming his student and future queen as well as losing all trust in her friends, brother and mentor for abandoning her at the wedding rehearsal. Not settling for all these successes, Jewelius lures the banished heroes back to Canterlot for a false chance of redemption so that he can capture them, gloat about his success and evil actions in their faces, and personally guarantee that his aunt Celestia and cousin Cadance will die. After the heroes and the Changelings have all escaped from his dungeons, he focuses on hunting down the heroes and refuses to prepare against the renewed threat of the Changelings even though Chrysalis desires his blood and everyone in Canterlot is more concerned about the Changelings than about the heroes. This leads to Twilight (and Canterlot's citizens) realizing how evil and selfish Jewelius is, reconciling with her loved ones and bringing to them the Elements of Harmony which are used in the final battle to stop Jewelius' army from destroying Ponyville. Finally, once Jewelius is cornered by the heroes, Chrysalisnote who secretly helped the heroes gain an advantage over him appears and orders her Changelings to kill Jewelius for his betrayal.

Villain Ball / int_3b34143f	comment	Harry Potter: Lord Voldemort, amusingly enough, suffered from being more evil than needed and less evil than he could've been at the same time. If he'd just killed Lily Potter without offering her a chance to step aside or if he'd deigned to toss her aside when she refused, instead of killing her, he would've won. But in doing things that exact way he provided the conditions for her Heroic Sacrifice, which eventually led to his doom. It's really something when holding the Villain Ball is an acknowledged character flaw in the books. Most of his catastrophic failings are attributed to himself going for the most showy and dramatic thing he can think of and having it backfire. Had Voldemort just made a random rock into a horcrux and tossed it into a random lake it would have been completely hidden; instead he specifically goes for famous objects as Rule of Cool. He also keeps insisting on having duels with Harry when his henchmen could do the job without worrying about wand backfire and then he insists on using the Killing Curse several times on the one person who's most famous in part for surviving it. Dolores Umbridge also holds the Villain Ball. In the fifth book, her answer to everything is to pass a decree; this actually gives students and teachers more ways to rebel. She goes as far as to ban the Quibbler, which had an interview with Harry, and having any student caught reading it expelled. As Hermione points out to Harry, banning it is a sure way to ensure everyone reads it! And then there's the whole bit about calling a horde of pissed-off centaurs "filthy half-breeds" for no good reason other than to show how racist she is. The results of that little stunt are never shown, other than her traumatized state at the end.

Philip is able to succeed in his plans largely because of the support he gets from the denizens of the Isles he tricks into following him, yet whenever he achieves some form of success of goal through them and feels he has finished with them, he seemingly cannot resist the opportunity to let them know how he really feels about them, rubbing in his deception and how he's thoroughly enjoying the chance to leave them for dead for worse off for their encounter. This resulted in 'Philip' becoming known as a manipulative and untrustworthy individual throughout all the Isles, forcing him to assume the identity of 'Belos' and even mutilate himself to appear as a Native, and his betrayals of Luz, Lilith, Kikimora and the Collector all rebounded back on him once he showcased his real opinions of them. Despite this, Philip never once learned from the multiple times this trait backfired on him, and is even hinted to secretly resent having to disguise his real nature and be continually forced to obscure what he really thinks of those around him. Him indulging in this one last time on the Day of Unity when the opportunity arose ultimately resulted in his carefully-laid plan and almost guaranteed victory going up in smoke.

Low level troublemakers use tranq guns, whereas hand guns and the like are reserved for more threatening opponents.

Villain Ball / int_7fc78282	comment	Saruman's plan in The Lord of the Rings makes no real sense. He wants to get the One Ring. How does he do this? He reveals his treachery to Gandalf when Gandalf comes to him for help, and then, after Gandalf escapes, he raises an army and invades Rohan. This despite the fact that by that point he had already subverted King Theoden to the point where had effective control of the kingdom anyway. Not only does his invasion fail, it leads pretty directly to Rohan's intervention on the side of Gondor against Mordor, with which Saruman was allied. Meanwhile, Saruman never gets anywhere near the Ring. If he had just pretended to still be Gandalf's friend and still loyal to the Istari and the White Council, he could easily have traveled to Rivendell with Gandalf, attended the Council meeting there, insinuated himself into the Fellowship, and then persuaded them that the easiest way over the Misty Mountains would be through the Gap of Rohan, and as long as they were passing through the Gap of Rohan, they might as well stop at Isengard for the night. Such a plan would have left him any number of opportunities to get the Ring. There was no reason to tip his hand to Gandalf so soon, or to invade Rohan when he did. It's no wonder Gandalf asked him (in the movie at least) why he exchanged wisdom for madness. Some of this is justified by Saruman's inability to understand Good. Since he's an untrustworthy manipulator trying to secure power for himself, he tends to assume the rest of the White Council (especially Gandalf) are the same. Which effectively means he doesn't trust them enough to effectively betray them. And the fact that he's trying to out-play Sauron at the Dark Lord game means he starts acting like a Dark Lord well before he's got the power or position to back it up. Sauron gets one by leaving the Cracks of Doom completely unguarded. While the heroes are successfully bluffing him into thinking Aragorn has the ring, you'd think the one spot in his territory where it's even possible to harm him would have some security. Of course, you'd think that, but Sauron wouldn't - like Saruman, he doesn't understand Good, and doesn't understand how or why anyone would willingly destroy the Ring, especially if they were strong enough to get all the way inside his territory. Justified in this case though. Sauron's mental wards were strong enough for the possible ring destroyer to change their mind and keep the Ring for themselves. This nearly won the battle both times for Sauron, so much that the literal intervention of the Top God was the only thing able to stop his plans.

He's been embezzling money from his clients for years, and he fires most of his employees after a year or so, both to avoid having to pay too much in raises and to make sure that none of them have time to cotton on to what he's doing. This bites him in the ass when someone finds him out-he rearranges accounts to make it look like Fat Charlie, his most senior employee by a full year, was the one doing it, but the person he's trying to convince knows that it's been happening for much longer than Fat Charlie's two-year tenure. This ultimately leads to a murder, some attempted murders, and also slicing his own femoral artery with a poorly-chosen place to hold a knife. Of course, he may or may not have been possessed along the way.

It isn't until Hiccup actually succeeds that he attempts to intervene, by which point it was already too late. If he'd just had Toothless blast Hiccup the second he came close, things would have turned out quite differently.

Villain Ball / int_875e9042	comment	In The Savior's Series, Brontes has been holding onto this for two decades. Considering his master plan is to kill Leila to seize power and use her death as a Pretext for War, some have questioned why Brontes wouldn't have tried harder to bump Leila off as a vulnerable child who couldn't properly use her magic, as opposed to waiting until she'd reached young adulthood and had time to master her powers. One also wonders why Brontes never told his three assassins what their target looks like, drawing things out even longer; he never provides them with a drawing or painting, or even just describes Leila to them. He instead decides to go through the entire tournament and hopes one of his three assassins wins (thus giving Leila ample time to plot against him).

Then there is SeÃ±or Senior Senior, who literally read the book on how to carry the Villain Ball, because he's obscenely rich and only commits villainous acts out of boredom. It's more fun for him to do it like a Bond villain.

When the Draconis Combine were conquering the Federated Suns territory, they reach the planet Kentares, the New Coordinator ordered the killing of the planets population in an act of vengeance for assassinating his father the previous Coordinator. When ComStar broadcast this to the rest of the Inner Sphere, this demoralized the Draconians, and enraged the Federated Suns to lead a Roaring Rampage of Revenge on the Combine, effectively retaking every world conquered by the Combine. Plus, there is the fact even from a Pragmatic Villain point of view, with the small size of the BattleTech armies, diversion of a sufficient force (a good portion of which eventually said Screw This, I'm Outta Here rather than continue the genocide) was quite unwise on its own.

Given Tywin's utter contempt for his son it is quite likely he used the word on purpose, never thinking Tyrion would actually shoot him especially while on the privy and is quite in character. In A Dance with Dragons, Janos Slynt insults Jon Snow, Lord Commander of the Night's Watch, in front of the entire Night's Watch, and flat-out refuses to obey his orders. So Snow chops off his head. It's even more satisfying to the readers because Snow doesn't know how Slynt's betrayal contributed to his father's death. It's probably one of the most satisfying Karmic Deaths in the entire series. When Cersei becomes Queen Regent, her paranoia and general unpleasantness as a person has her alienating even those who would have been happy to be her allies. She ticks off her family members (even Jaime), frames Margaery Tyrell for adultery, refuses to pay the Iron Bank, and kills the High Septon of the faith. Eventually she is imprisoned by the new High Septon, and she has left the realm in ruins, and everything the Lannisters have schemed for years slowly crumbles.

They even go as far as stealing the Apple family's apples to make their own cider. Zigzagged in "Leap of Faith", their second appearance. When Applejack finds out the con they're running, they're at first smart enough to convince her to go along with it as it's making Granny Smith happy and not hurting anyone else. But rather than take this easy opportunity to leave everyone happy, they then insist on promoting their phony tonic under Applejack's approval, leading her to expose them. In the two-episode story "A Canterlot Wedding", Twilight Sparkle is the only one who suspects the character of Princess Cadance, who's marrying Twilight's brother, though she doesn't guess that it's actually Queen Chrysalis who had taken Cadance's place. At the end of the first part, Chrysalis manages to convince everyone, including Twilight herself, that Twilight is being a horrible person and only accusing her because she's possessive of her brother. That would have neutralised the only threat to her plans, but it's just not evil enough, so she has to go and imprison her in the same place where the real Cadance was, apparently trying to make Twilight kill her — only to lead to her eventual defeat after Twilight doesn't and they flee together to stop the wedding. It's also a bit more complicated than that, with a bit of a Bug War in there and whatnot, but the way the good guys win in the end would not have been possible if the real Cadance had not been freed. Or with Twilight moping alone somewhere after being told not to even attend the wedding. Even with Twilight out of the picture, Chrysalis constantly does things that are Not Helping Her Case like being a massive Bridezilla who constantly berates everyone for doing any little thing she doesn't like, even Shining Armor for doing minor things like wanting to wear something that belonged to his father. All she had to do to win was hold her position with Shining Armor loving her, which she would have accomplished with much more success had she just swallowed her pride and paid lip service to "her" fiance and their wedding staff. "The Times They Are A Changeling" reveals the changelings are species-wide villain ball holders. Thorax, a changeling who prefers to be friends with ponies, reveals that the changeling Mooks are free-thinking creatures capable of emotions and are fully capable of simply feeding on "ambient" love between others, and even on the love they could have for each other with literally no ill effects. They could keep peacefully to themselves or be the pony's greatest allies if they weren't naturally aggressive and didn't have such an evil tyrant teaching them from birth to invade and conquer instead. "To Where And Back Again" reveals this to be true. The Changelings could easily feed on love for each other instead of stealing love from others. Not only is stealing love totally inadequate, it never gets them fed at all. It only benefitted their very abusive leader. In "School Raze", once Cozy Glow was foiled, had she turned back on the innocent little filly act she was otherwise so good at and made up a Freudian Excuse or cried to Twilight Sparkle about not understanding friendship, she would have been treated the same as Starlight Glimmer and been thrown a second chance so fast her freckles would have been blown off leaving her free to go back to villainy the second Twilight's guard was down. Instead she'd rather rant and rave about her villainy and gets tossed in Tartarus. She's actually smart enough to keep her mouth shut the second time she's foiled, but unfortunately this time Queen Chrysalis isn't and Celestia doesn't care either way at this point. In the Season 9 premiere, King Sombra would've gotten away with it too, had he joined forces with the rest of the villains, instead of attempting to invade Equestria on his own.

Villain Ball / int_cf69b21e	comment	In Transformers: Beast Wars, Megatron is generally a pretty savvy villain, but he just enjoys being so deliciously evil that he can't help but fall into this on occasion. In the very first episode his ship The Darksyde, a heavily-armed combat vessel, has a very clear opportunity to simply blast the Axalon, the Maximal's under-equipped exploration vessel, clear out of the skies. He forgoes this opportunity to "make them suffer for more fun" and instead comes alongside them so his side-cannons can pepper them with extra fire. This also gives the Axalon the opportunity to fire back and shoot the Darksyde down as well. Notably, this is also a driving reason Dinobot defects from the Predacons. During Call of the Wild he concocts a pretty effective plan to mess with the Maximal's programming and make them think they are wild animals. Rather than just having his men swoop out and decimate the now helpless Maximals in about 5 minutes, he makes a big deal out of an old-fashioned hunting party, complete with drums and making his henchhmen carry him in a chair so he can savor the hunt. Naturally, this not only gives Tigertron plenty of time to cure the Maximals, but actually helps the Maximals learn to more effectively use their Beast Modes to boot. He decides to use the Fusion Cannon on the entirely helpless proto-humans when he should have attacked the Maximals first, who could actually do something to stop him. To make it even worse all of the proto-humans survived somehow and he only succeeded in killing Quickstrike and Inferno, his own minions.

Villain Ball / int_d31cdea	comment	Everything the Capitol does in The Hunger Games seems to be based on how evil it is than whether or not it would be beneficial. Shooting an old man in a crowd just for singing a song, reducing District 12 into utter poverty to the point the protagonist wanted to rebel, rounding up a chunk of the victors of the games (people the public cherish and revere as heroes) into another game with the intent to kill, eliminating any good will between Katniss by brutally killing Cinna in front of her, eliminating the good will of pretty much any major character by brutally firebombing District 12 and killing civilians on TV. Combined with the Hunger Games itself, it makes you wonder how the nation lasted for 75 years without any form of outward rebellion which the districts are too happy to do in the span of a few months. Aside from the central extravagance of the hunger games (and even that is in some ways an inspired form of repression in that it forces people to become complicit in it through starvation, quite Stalin-esque actually) the tactics the capital uses to repress the districts are actually a fairly realistic representation of the terror methods that Real Life regimes use, and just like in Real Life but unlike in most stories: They work, to a point. In 75 years of power the capital had almost certainly weathered minor uprisings that it had been able to quell through force, control of information, and playing districts off against each other. What tips the scale in the period of the plot is: military support from district 13, inter-district organizational and information support from district 13 and rebels in the capital, and a unifying symbol for all the districts in the form of Katniss and Peeta that had already been helpfully broadcast through the capital's own propaganda machine.

Also, in the end Jafar was already the most powerful sorcerer on Earth, more than strong enough to defeat Aladdin. Instead he had to be the most powerful creature and wished to be a genie, with all that entails. Years of planning and hard work for Jafar end up being for nothing with someone else getting his greatest dreams all because he wanted to screw the kid over. For that matter, his entire scheme of arresting Aladdin and disguising himself was flawed. Aladdin's entire world revolved around basically keeping fed with dreams of one day being rich. Jafar could have just as easily gone to him in person promising him amnesty and a solid payoff for his efforts, which he even more easily could have actually given the kid: a single pardon and a bag of gold would have meant nothing to him even as the vizier, let alone the new sultan. He does it again in Aladdin: The Return of Jafar when he praises Iago for successfully serving as The Mole for his plans to get back at Aladdin. Iago already felt guilty, but this was the final straw for him, and he ends up helping the others to stop Jafar once and for all.

He only becomes a legitimate threat at the climax of the movie, when he stops relying on minions and (surprise) actually uses his powers. Bill, the creator of the Phantom Virus, ends up getting smacked with the ball twice. During the end of the film, he attempts to flee the crime scene despite Mystery Inc. only having vague hints that he may have been involved with the Phantom Virus' creation and hardly enough evidence to convict him with the crime. His other grabbing of the ball (as pointed out by Caddicarus) is more reliant on Fridge Logic, but still applies: since he made the Phantom Virus, he must have had to spend hours programming it, and thus is to blame for all of the Virus' design flaws, including failing to just kill Mystery Inc., constantly making stupid mistakes, and making tons of baseball references, which is what made Mystery Inc. suspect Bill was behind the Virus' creation.

Villain Ball / int_f055637b	comment	In A Dance with Dragons, Janos Slynt insults Jon Snow, Lord Commander of the Night's Watch, in front of the entire Night's Watch, and flat-out refuses to obey his orders. So Snow chops off his head. It's even more satisfying to the readers because Snow doesn't know how Slynt's betrayal contributed to his father's death. It's probably one of the most satisfying Karmic Deaths in the entire series.

This makes him an unbeatable opponent who can commit crimes like stealing all of Gothamâ€™s money with casual ease, but it turns out he also has all of their Villain Ball traits which ultimately leads to his defeat.

If Madame Medusa went through the legal process of adopting Penny instead of kidnapping her and at least pretended to act like a mother she wouldn't keep trying to escape or send a message for help.

Villain Ball / int_f7ed2fd7	comment	The Little Mermaid (1989) has Ursula finally obtain the all-powerful trident and become ruler of all the ocean, a power she demonstrates by causing whirlpools and raising ships from the depths. Then she decides to throw the mermaid into the bottom of the whirlpool just to have a little fun sniping her. She's not only poorly wielding the trident with such a weak display, but she also isn't paying attention to what's around her, causing Eric to impale her with a broken bowsprit and killing her. All of which could've been avoided if she just used her control of the water to just drown Eric and slam Ariel into rocks.

And because the clone felt the need to gloat prior to sealing Supergirl in.

When he realises the babies simply don't care and are more interested in a bouncing ball, he announces he'll destroy their ball because he can, which prompts them to attack and defeat him.
