Albert Wesker. One of the most cruel and ruthless villains in video game history, capable of effortlessly taking down two highly trained soldiers on his own and the first villain to make this list. Congratulations, Wesker, you get a cookie.. But what makes this genocidal madman so dangerous? Well, it's time to break it down... man, I'm running out of cool ways to say that.

Backstory: Albert Wesker was the leader of the STARS unit originally sent to take down the Umbrella organization. However, it turned out that he was with umbrella all along, trying to create a new race of superhumans and all the people "not worthy", as in their blood doesn't mix right with the virus, turns into zombies and he'd be the self-proclaimed god of the new world... Wait, so if everyone basically got the same powers as him, than they'd be on par with him, that'd HARDLY make him a god. Anyway, Chris and the rest of his team thought he was dead when his "ultimate life form" impaled him through the chest, but he somehow survived, showing up years later in Africa, starting a new strain with the "uroboros" virus. He encountered Chris several times here, even turning his former partner against him with a mind control device on her chest, but he was finally defeated with a couple RPG's to the face. He must've been rolling in his grave when his own son was the key to pretty much wiping out the plague he started.
Speed: Wesker is far beyond a normal human in just about every regard, his skill being no exception. He is capable of both dodging bullets and moving faster than the eye can see in brief intervals. This means he can move at supersonic speeds in short bursts, moving fast enough to cause a decent amount of damage to anyone he runs straight into (Marvel Vs. Capcom).
Agility&Reflexes: Wesker is quite agile, doing many cool matrix moves, spins, flips and other acrobatic evasion maneuvers. His reactions are about as fast as he is, fast enough to react to and dodge automatic fire and easily outmaneuver highly trained special forces officers.
Durability: Being one of the main bad guys of the series and a final boss, Wesker had to be pretty tough. He survived a giant monster putting a hole through his chest, taking a couple of RPG's NOT directly to the face, although it will still bring him to his knees, being tackled out of a mansion window off a cliff and of course surviving a giant plane crash INTO A VOLCANO while he was overdosed with the drug that gives him super powers and was severely weakened by this. So, he's probably large building level, if it brings down a 4+ story building, it's probably gonna bring him down.
Skill: As a former captain of a special forces unit, Wesker is a highly skilled combatant as well as an impressive tactician, taking Chris Redfield off-guard by throwing a PAIR OF SUNGLASSES at him. He can take on multiple special forces officers at once and coupled with his insane speed and reflexes, puts him almost on a level above human combat capabilities, meaning it's really hard, almost impossible, for humans to beat him in physical combat. However, his arrogance does often leave him open and many of his attacks are often very straight forward, so if you see them coming and know what you're doing, you have a really good chance of getting out of the way.
Weapons: With his superhuman abilities, Wesker is pretty much his own weapon, but still carries around a basic sidearm: a pistol. That's pretty much all he carries. He can throw his sunglasses at you, but that's really for more of a distraction than to hurt you. Wesker's pistol appears to be a regular 9mm., nothing particularly special, but still, that gives his about average range and a good 9 shots. I'm not sure if this counts as a weapon, but if he's truly desperate and is backed up into a corner, he can inject himself with the Uroboros virus and become insanely stronger and his torso becomes some kind of tentacle hentai monster, capable of smashing through the ground and spinning at insane speeds around him to knock away any enemy near him.
Strength: Among everything else, this is probably Wesker's weakest area. True, he's physically stronger than most regular humans, but he is very low superhuman in terms of strength. Chris and Sheva are able to grapple him and Sheva can flip him with wrestling moves. He was unable to break away from them after being grappled, so his strength can't be much greater than theirs. His hand has been able to pierce through a human's chest, a missile shell and the hull of a plane, so while that's impressive and slightly more than most humans, still comparable enough for peak humans to contend with him.
So, what did we learn? Wesker is still a terrifying and ruthless villain that no ordinary human should mess with, but he's certainly far from the most dangerous villain in fictional history. His ultimate goal is actually more frightening than he is. Sorry, Wesker, but the most I can really give you here is a 5 out of 10.
