Thanos acquires the fully powered Infinity Gauntlet in The Avengers: Infinity War, but loses when all the superheroes team up together to stop him.
Either story-wise or gameplay wise.
I'll go for a somewhat controversial pick from Final Fantasy VII:
Aerith is the "white mage" archetype. As such, her physical attacks are extraordinarily weak, and she's more well suited to magic and healing. Her physical ineptitude leaves her severely lacking compared to the other characters because of the materia system. You can just load her up with summons and magic materia, and you'll be fine - but her weakness stands out in a game where anyone can do anything. If anyone can be anything, why would you take this severely crippled character with you when you can just put Cure materia on someone who can also do good damage?
"But her limit breaks are amazing!" You might say.
Sure, maybe. If you can ever get them all! She leaves the party after the first disc, making her availability, and the likelihood she'll even ever get her entire set of limit breaks, very low. She is, battle-wise, the most useless character in the game. Don't get me wrong, I think she's a great character, and I even use her often for as long as I can, but she is not as good as the others from a gameplay standpoint, especially in random battles when you haven't built her limit up yet.
Even though he's there for a lot longer, Cait Sith comes very close.
What's your choice? Please defend your answer and post something of substance.
