It can’t always be easy living in a galaxy filled with powerful villains who are alwaysstriving
for even MORE power and territory.
But, if we want to follow a certain nomad’sadvice and look on the bright side, there are also
quite a few heroes who can be prettypowerful too.
But who among these characters is the ​most​ powerful?
And for thatmatter, who’s the weakest?
We’ve already ranked them on their morality, so now it’stime to rank them based on their
power levels.I’m Brad with WickedBinge, and this is Wander Over Yonder characters:Weak-to-PowerfulBefore
we begin, a few things to keep in mind.
Although the number of powerful villaincharacters may outnumber the good guys, due to the nature
of Wander Over Yonder andhow many of its characters have switched alignments over the course of
the show, we’llbe including both heroes and baddies on this list.
Additionally, their morality won’t factorinto our ranking whatsoever.
If you want to see how they rank on that, you’ll have towatch our previous video on
this show.
Lastly, for clarity’s sake, we’ll be rankingcharacters on a combination of their physical strength
and durability, intelligence,powers, resources such as ships or armies, and finally how many
wins or successesthey’ve had.Naturally, we’ll be starting with our absolute weakest
character and move on up to themost powerful.Now, when it comes to weak characters, there’s
really no one better to start off our listthan the minor league villain, ​Something the
So-and-So​.
Introduced in season 2 as partof the Galactic Villain Leaderboard, this guy was ranked low
from the start.
He had veryfew planets to his name, no armies, and not even any powers!
He did have theopportunity to get what he thought was an all-powerful Ring of Invincibility
(in reality itwas just an ordinary candy ring), but between not having much of a plan for
what to dowith it and the other villains being more outspoken than him, he ultimately left
the battleempty handed.
Something the So-and-So later shows up to try and do something evil,but is still uncertain
on exactly WHAT he wants to do.
With very little convincing onWander’s part, Something the So-and-So gave up on being a
villain and was last seenhelping the rest of the galaxy in the finale.
Unfortunately, this guy never got to showwhat he could do, or if he could really do anything.
Because of this, we have to put himat the bottom of our list.Our next two entries are
actually tied in terms of power, and are actually rivals:​ ​Starbellaand her greatest enemy,
Mandrake the Malfeasant​.​ These two have been fighting each other and going on adventures
for years, but by the time we meet them, they’re notexactly at their peak.
Not to diss on the lesson of the episode, but it can’t be denied thatcompared to other
characters, Starbella and Mandrake really only have the ability tocompete with each
other.
Because of their age, they’re both pretty slow and can be a bitforgetful.
Mandrake especially is physically weak, seen losing his breath multiple timesand unable
to really use his magic anymore​.
​He does have an army of robots, but theseguys can easily be defeated by ordinary objects
- which brings us back to Starbella.Though a bit more mobile and agile than Mandrake,
she doesn’t seem to be physicallystrong, and has to rely on items such as a supersonic
socket wrench, hairspray and herown false teeth to defeat Mandrake.
But even she couldn’t defeat Mandrake without thehelp of her sidekick, Mittens.
While these guys certainly have some fight left in them,they may want to consider retirement.Next
is the most adorable bounty hunter in the Galaxy,​ Lil’ Bits​.
While smaller andphysically weaker than Starbella and Mandrake, Lil’ Bits does have a special
ability thatgives her a bit of an edge.
Because of how cute she is, Lil’ Bits is able to hypnotize mostpeople into surrendering
to her, making them easy to manipulate and control.
We alsosee her briefly wielding a machine gun in “The Battle Royale”.
That’s a pretty big gun forsuch a powerful kitty!
However, her cuteness isn’t infalible.
Both Sylvia and the BlackCube of Darkness were able to withstand her powers, and without
that ability, Lil’ Bits isjust an ordinary cat who’s barely able to escape from an
empty toilet paper roll.
Thoughwe respect the edge she may have on ordinary citizens throughout the Galaxy, when
itcomes to heroes and other villains, there’s really no contest.Up next, we have the not-so-noble
knight, ​Sir Brad Starlight​.​ Despite looking as buff asyour standard knight, Brad
doesn’t seem to have much in the way of fighting skills.
Heeasily gets overpowered by King Dracor’s guards while Wander and Sylvia were brieflyable
to fight them.
He also failed at fighting one of Dominator’s lava bots, only able todefeat it when the
fight was fixed.
The most we see of Bradley’s battle skills are in theepisode ‘The Enemies’, where
he constantly fights with Lord Hater.
While Haterobviously has magic and an army of Watchdogs on his side, Brad was able tosomewhat
keep up with him physically, the two of them being about evenly matched ina fist-fight.
In his episodes, we also see how easily Brad is able to get back up after hismany, MANY
failures gives off the sense that while he isn’t much of a combatant, he ispretty durable.Next,
we have the fierce Arachnomorph hunter, ​Emily Ripov​.​ To deal with creatures astough
as acid-spitting, sharp-toothed spiders, you have to be the toughest of the tough.As a
hunter, Ripov has a huge arsenal of weaponry that includes blasters and knives of all different
sizes.
She’s also seen as a fairly capable physical fighter, given how she’sable to tackle Lord
Hater and briefly pin him down.
We also know that she’s prettydurable, given all of the injuries that she’s been able
to walk away from.
Still, while weadmire her hunting skills and bravery, she’s still more of an above-average
warrior thanan unstoppable force, and still needs Captain Tim to save her from the queenArachnomorph
in the end, unable to get out of her webs herself.From the Arachnomorph homeworld to
the snowy surface of Baaaahalla, we have ​TheTroll​.
It’s implied that through his strength and unique ability of being able to grow toenormous
sizes, the Troll was able to defeat Prince Cashmere and his army severaltimes.
Given that the Baaaahalians are trained warriors and outnumber the Troll ahundred to one, this
is nothing to sneeze at.
Not even Sylvia could do much to stop theTroll physically.
However, while the Troll’s unique ability is useful, it also has a HUGEweakness.
Once people refuse to give him attention or respond to his insults, the Trollhas no choice
but to shrink to the size of an ant, making it very easy to defeat him.
Evenif you acknowledge his wins, this fatal flaw pushes the Troll pretty low on our list.Up
next is ​The Black Cube of Darkness​.
The Black Cube is certainly a unique characterin Wander Over Yonder’s universe, making him
a bit hard to rank.
He has the ability tosuck out people’s souls, as seen in multiple episodes.
As if that wasn’t enough, hisotherworldly nature grants him other abilities, like the
ability to stop a missile dead in itstracks, as briefly seen in “The Battle Royale”.
You’d think these two things combinedwould be enough to shoot the Cube to the top of
our list.
Unfortunately, it’s not alwayseasy being a little black cube of darkness.
For starters, though his ability to steal soulscan be a game ending move, he has to
actually be able to do it.
Unfortunately, peopleare able to stop him from doing this by simply looking away or
covering their eyes.Additionally, while he’s great at defending, he can’t really do much
in ways of physicalattacking, other than his signature move.
With no armies to do the fighting for him andno back-up ability for when his soul-stealing
attempts fail, we have to put him towardsthe weaker end of our list.Dr. Screwball Jones​
is next on our list.
A clever prankster at heart who claims he justwants to make others happy, nearly all
of Screwball’s arsenal is focused on comedy,from banana peels to a tickle machine filled with
feathers.
He even has a magicaccordion that can stand up to Wander’s banjo!
While these so-called weapons mayseem like jokes, they still pack quite a punch.
Even Sylvia was nearly incapacitated bythem!
But, for people like Wander who know how to go along with the bit, it can be easyto outsmart
him.
It should also be noted that Screwball himself doesn’t seem to be particularly strong,
nor does he have any powers, and was even taken down by his owntickle machine.
Though Wander may consider him a huge threat, he’s really just a clown.For our next spot,
we’re putting the entire ​Watchdog Army​, save for a certaincommander which we’ll
get to later.
Though these guys aren’t too special on their own,together they’ve managed to be
a formidable force throughout the series.
As a group,they were able to overpower Sylvia early on in the series.
They’re also able to overtake awhole planet, with enough guidance from their superiors.
Unfortunately, Watchdogsaren’t too bright, hence why they often need Peepers or Hater
guiding them.
They alsoaren’t much of a threat without their blasters, having about average strength
and nothaving much height over their enemies.
Still, against all odds and thanks to their strongteamwork, these guys do have quite a
few wins under their collective belts.Next is ​Sourdough, the Evil Sandwich​.
Let’s be real here, Sourdough is only getting thisspot because of his vast armada and resources,
which was left over from his time asQueen Entazoa.
His beefeaters are shown to be quite strong, and with the amount ofships he has, he was
able to easily overpower the Skull Ship after stealing several ofHater’s planets.
But while this makes him a powerful force on the Galactic VillainLeaderboard, it’s
clear that Sourdough himself isn’t very powerful.
He is just a sandwich,after all, which Hater was able to toast with one shot of his lightning.
Still, sometimesyou don’t need to be the strongest guy in the room.
Sometimes, you just need strongpeople who are willing to work for you, even if you’re
stuck as a couple pieces of breadand baloney.Managing to rank two slots above his subordinates,
we have ​Commander Peepers​.Early on this show, it seemed as though Peepers’ status
as a commander was the onlything that made him special.
In one instance, during ‘The Bounty’, he wasn’t even strongenough to lift a flagpole.
But after this point, Peepers bulked up quite a bit, gettingstronger over time, and was
even able to be on equal footing with Sylvia during “TheBattle Royale”.
He’s also shown to be quite intelligent, coming up with nearly all of theWatchdog army’s
plans and strategies.
However, even he can sometimes fall victim toWander’s tricks.
His height can also be a huge weak spot for him, which EmperorAwesome takes advantage
of.
Finally, while the Watchdogs may listen to him, they don’tnecessarily respect him or
even like him that much, making you wonder who they’d sidewith if there was ever a
coup within the Hater Empire.
Though he’s probably the mostcapable Watchdog we meet, there are still several other characters
who have him beat,and sometimes you have to accept that brawn beats out brains.
Who’s ready to party?
Up next on our list is ​Emperor Awesome​.
Sharks are alreadyknown as powerful creatures on Earth, so it isn’t too surprising to
see a shark-man fromspace this high up.
Just by looking at his muscles, you can see that this guy’s game isbrute strength.
Even his army is just a bunch of living fists!
What he lacks in intelligence,Awesome is able to make up for in power.
Though he lost his battlesaurus in “ThePicnic”, he does have speakers that are so powerful
that they’re able to crack a planet inhalf.
His vast popularity can also grant him influence over people, something his rivalHater often
struggles with.
But due to him being a musclehead, he often isn’t smartenough to think of any backup
plans or strategies when his strength fails.
He practicallygave himself over to Dominator due to him being so cocky.
In the end, this wasAwesome’s biggest downfall, and all his strength couldn’t save him from
gettingcaptured and traumatized by the Galaxy’s latest villain.Outranking nearly all of the
villains on this list in terms of power, it’s none other thanWander​.
This is another case where determination, intuition and especially heart canoverpower
raw strength.
Due to his friendly nature, Wander has a ton of influence overpeople.
He’s convinced several of his former enemies to switch sides and be betterpeople, essentially
‘defeating’ them.
When he can’t convince an enemy to become afriend, he uses seemingly-goofy shenanigans
to trick them into having fun, orsometimes even taking themselves out, as we see in the
very first episode.
As one ofthe more emotionally intelligent people in the show, Wander is often able to
see aperson’s true wants and desires.
By helping them, he’s often able to save people andplanets in the process.
He’s also sometimes able to see the solutions that others can’t,like how he was able to
figure out the Troll’s weakness.
He isn’t very strong, though hewas able to kick a missile away from the sun in the
episode, “The Good Deed”.
That’spretty impressive for such a little guy!
But more often than not, he has to rely on Sylviato handle the more physical side of
their adventures.
And ironically, as much as he usesdistraction to defeat his enemies, Wander can often fall
to distractions himself and canput himself in danger just to help someone out.
Because of these factors, we can’t rankhim any higher despite all the wins he’s had
throughout the series.Just above Wander, naturally, is his best friend, ​Sylvia​.
Despite not having anyextraordinary powers, Sylvia is one of the strongest characters
in the show.
Not only isshe able to stand up to enemies bigger than her, but she’s also able to
pull out a wineven when she’s outnumbered.
Her determination in keeping her buddy, Wander, safealso plays a big part in how strong and
resourceful she can be.
This was seen in theSeason 2 premiere, where she was strong enough to temporarily break
through cooledlava.
She’s also extremely fast, able to outrun Hater’s Skull Ship.
She can also be cleverand strategic when it comes to fights, knows how to hotwire space
ships, and learned how to use a variety of weapons effectively from her days as a bounty
hunter.
However,even Sylvia has her limits.
If an opponent is too big or if she’s just too outnumbered, shewill lose.
Because of just how strong she is, as well as her mix of wins and losses overthe course
of the series, we feel just a few notches below the top of our list is the bestspot
for her.Ranking fourth in terms of power, it’s ​Planet Janet​.
Janet is a living planet that’s able tocontrol the environment on her surface.
In just the blink of an eye, she can createvalleys, mountains, floods and even heat up her center
core to create volcanoes.
Formost people in the Galaxy, fighting Mother Nature itself is out of the question.
Even ifsomeone did have the ability to escape or fight against natural disasters, Janet
beingalive still allows her to think and strategize, meaning that the only real way to defeat heris
to either talk her down or completely destroy her.But what’s more powerful than an actual
planet?
How about a few planetaryconquerors?
Entering our top three, it’s ​Major Threat​ ​- or Jeff, as his friends call him.Before
Hater, Major Threat was one of the most successful conquerors in the universe.This was mostly
due to his unique mental abilities.
His telekinesis allows him to controlpeople like puppets, crush planets and even create
mini-black holes.
He also has apowerful ship that dwarfs many others that we’ve seen in comparison.
It even has atractor beam.
He also used to have an army of squid minions, as seen in “The Waste ofTime”, though
it’s unknown whether he still has them as a good guy.
Like the Black Cubeof Darkness, having such a unique and extraordinary power pushes Major
Threat highup in the rankings.
It is shown, however, that people like Hater are able to break free ofhis telekinesis.
It should also be noted that, while we aren’t factoring in morality, Jeff isa lot less likely
to use his powers these days, making him less of, well, a threat.
Still, hispowers are there and are clearly still effective, allowing the former Major
Threat to takebronze.Next, we’re giving ​Lord Dominator​ ​our Silver Medal of
Power, ranking her second thistime around.
Obviously, no one can outmatch her when it comes to evil and maliciousintentions.
But when it comes to power, things aren’t quite as set in stone.
Yes,Dominator is indeed powerful.
She’s got an armada of lava-bots, not to mention plentyof other weapons and missiles
as well as her infamous planet-destroying drill.
With littleeffort, she was able to get nearly every villain in the Galaxy to surrender to
her.
AfterPeepers accidentally gave her ice powers while trying to freeze her ship, she becameeven
​more​ powerful!
So why are we only giving Dominator second?
Well, a couplereasons, actually.
The biggest reason being - it’s not strictly Dominator’s power, butinstead, it all lies
in her suit.
Dominator even says in “The Night Out” that without her suit, she’s at risk and
that it’d be dangerous to go out without it.
She isn’t even able toconquer any planets while her ship and suit are stuck updating.
Granted, she is acompetent fighter in her own right, able to easily overpower the nightclub
owner thatshe and Sylvia anger.
Still, it’s pretty obvious that without her suit and its destructiveabilities, she
wouldn’t be nearly as powerful as she is with it.
We even see this in theseries finale, where after her drill is destroyed and she’s cut
off from her suit’s powers,she’s almost completely helpless and has to rely on Wander’s
mercy to save her.Because of these factors, we can’t give her the gold.
That means, there’s only one othercharacter who can get it.At the top of our list, we’ve
named ​Lord Hater​ ​as our Most Powerful Wander OverYonder character.
Though it may seem like his constant boasting of being “the Greatestin the Galaxy” is
just Hater having an ego, there’s actually quite a bit of truth to it.
Ofcourse, Hater has one of the biggest armies in the show.
His skull ship is filled withplenty of weapons and resources, and before Wander came onto
the scene, Hater hadmost of the Galaxy’s planets under his control.
Now, having this would only really puthim on the level of Emperor Awesome or Sourdough,
but if you look just a liiiiittle bitcloser, you can see this skeleton’s true power:
his electric magic.
With this power, hecan not only electrocute enemies, but also teleport, create force fields
and even fly!
Oneof his greatest feats of power was in the series finale where, with a little extramotivation,
he was able to withstand the force of Dominator’s drill, pushing it back upinto her ship.
But even without his electricity, this guy can be a true powerhouse.
In “ThePicnic” we see him throw an entire T-Rex and punch Emperor Awesome completely
offthe planet!
As for durability, he’s able to survive pretty much anything thanks to himbeing, well,
a skeleton.
From getting burnt and blown up, to falling from great heights, toeven losing limbs, Lord
Hater always seems to get back up.
There are even momentswhen he seems intelligent, like when he determined where the last planet
in the Galaxywas.
Really, his only weakness is his own ego and how often he can get distracted byhis own
emotions and secret desires of friendship.
Still, while this weakness is a bigone, given that it’s usually how he loses, we just
overlook Hater’s raw natural power andabilities, making him the most powerful character in
the Galaxy.But what do you think?
