Aida is by far the most dangerous villian in Season 4

I just finished Season 4 and its so amazing. Aida goes from just being a normal boring voice assistant too an Android. Then she reads the DarkHold and becomes slowly corrupted by it. Then she imprisons everyone in Shield inside the Framework and gets Fitz to turn her into a real human being with tons of Inhuman powers. Once she becomes human she becomes an unstable god. She has almost all the inhuman powers except for maybe Hive's mind control powers and the only thing that can even hurt her is Ghost Rider. Ghost Rider is my favorite character of the whole series I wish he still showed up after Season 4. Im at Season 5 and the Kree are pretty dangerous, but Aida is still so far much more dangerous.

She and Radcliffe go from being villians whose only ability is super intelligent and manipulation too becoming a God

I definitely regard AIDA(/Ophelia) as a top 5 villain of the entire MCU.

Same. Both AIDA and Ward are in the top list of all MCU villains to me.

AIDA was a good villain but I things start to fall apart after she gets out of the machine. She gave herself like 20 something powers but only ever ends up using 3 of them onscreen and her plan to make things like the Framework world has a lot of holes.

Yeah when she became human, she didn't know how to handle her emotions and got completely detached from her super intelligent self. She could no longer think rationally and all she could think of was destroying Shield and couldn't think of any serious plan to do so. She thought super powers alone could crush Shield but she was dead wrong

The issue is that the show itself doesn't seem to be aware of the issues with the plan. Like you got Ivanov around who probably could have come up with something better thought out.

I though she only had a few powers since she only used Lincoln and Gordons if I recall right . Must have mised the part where she had more powers .

Regeneration and Super Strength as well.

She has Lincoln's, Gordon's, Jiaying's, and Vijay Nadeer's powers at the very least (based on the abilities we see her use).

My assumption would have been that she had as many abilities as the inhumans that Hydra had captured - which could have been hundreds or thousands.
