There seems to be a valid trope in here, and the examples seem to fit, but the name and description are both pretty bad in that they spend more time going on about how terrible this trope is than actually explaining it. It needs a rename and rewrite at the very least.
Think of the mooks!
How is this different from Too Dumb to Live? I'm not seeing it.
Reminder: Offscreen Villainy does not count towards Complete Monster.
Lovable Rogue
Doesn't seem to be any difference at all. And some of the examples don't even fit the already nebulous description. The True Lies one admits right in the same bulletpoint that the dead mooks had no time to react, and the Justice League one, from what I can tell, is something else altogether.
Considering we have already have enough misuse on Too Dumb to Live as is, I propose a cut for this page.
I wouldn't be posting at this forum if I didn't think it a necessary step.
We already have this trope. It's called Villain Ball.
I see the Awesomeness.
Support cut. Identical to Too Dumb to Live.
Fight smart, not fair.
It's not quite the same as Too Dumb to Live, but it does seem to be a very narrow subtrope.
Loser
There is now a page action crowner on this subject here
.
Feel free to add options as you wish. I am a bit concerned that it might be against protocol to have two cut choices, but I think it makes sense given the situation. I guess merge may make more sense than cut though so I can edit that in if anyone thinks that would make those options clearer to other people.

There's nothing wrong with having two or more different options that both include "cut" as part of the action to be taken. You're doing good.
...if you don’t love you’re dead, and if you do, they’ll kill you for it.
There seem to be a consensus to move the examples to Villain Ball and cut this trope. Any objections?
Think of the mooks!
Sounds good to me - let's wrap it up.

Crowner's locked; examples need to be moved and wicks corrected, then cutlist Stupicide.

Hmm, Suzaku Kururugi, Anti-Villain or Anti-Hero?
Think of the mooks!
I don't watch Code Geass, but I know the fandom goes back and forth on that question... I'd actually mention both and that YMMV as to which camp he actually falls into.

Well w/e, all of the examples, except Suzaku are now in Villain Ball. We can cut this
Think of the mooks!
Upon further review of the Suzaku entry in question, it looks Square Peg Round Trope anyhow, so let it die with the page. I think a cut and lock is in order.

It done gone been cut.
I didn't write any of that.
Crown Description:
What would be the best way to fix the page?
All I know is that it's been around longer than the current discussion system, but it only has 13 wicks and 34 inbounds.
she her hers hOI!!! i'm tempe
