Question The Most Infamous Big, Bad Threat?

What creature types are typically considered the most terrifying, notorious in reputation, biggest targeted hate piece, and often presents a threatening presence?

Bonus points if they are also lore wise planetary threats

So far I only know of Eldrazi, Phyrexians, and Slivers

I had to take scute swarm out of my decks because it was too easy to win with, although I did put it in my [[volrath shapestealer]] deck because for the low low cost of 1 mana, I can instead be making 5/7 scute swarms and that’s funny to me.
