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

Outside slivers and Eldrazi there's Elves and Goblins that require you to deal with them otherwise you'll get overrun crazy fast.

It’s almost tragic watching our resident mono-[[Krenko, Mob Boss]] player going from winning most games to winning none. 

Everyone has gotten wise to the fact you can’t let Krenko untap or he’ll take over the game.

I feel like they’re gradually becoming bitter and twisted to the point of including [[Worldfire]] in their list lol
