Scarlet Witch

Scarlet Witch (AKA Wanda Maximoff) is a minor character in Captain America: The Winter Soldier, an antagonist turned ally in Avengers: Age of Ultron, supporting character in Captain America: Civil War and Avengers: Infinity War/Endgame, the main protagonist villain of WandaVision, and the main antagonist of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.

She is a former member of the Avengers, and she is Quicksilver's twin sister, both of whom are children of Magneto. She is portrayed by Elizabeth Olsen.

Why She Rocks

 * 1) Her romance with Vision is very heartwarming; she also envisions him as a human despite being an android.
 * 2) Living up to her name, Scarlet Witch has the ability to alter reality with magical powers.
 * 3) Wanda made an excellent choice by sacrificing Vision before Thanos was able to get ahold of it.
 * 4) * Though Thanos would've not reversed time if it wasn't for Star-Lord's screw-up.
 * 5) Elizabeth Olsen portrays her very beautifully.
 * 6) Ever since Avengers: Infinity War, she became one of the strongest members of the Avengers, if not, one of the strongest characters in the MCU. Avengers: Endgame further made her one of the strongest members of the Avengers when she faced off against Thanos to the point where she would have killed him, if he didn't give the "rain fire" order.
 * 7) She gets her own show, WandaVision alongside Vision, where it adds more character development for Scarlet Witch and Vision, which is actually why this show was made, given that they didn't have much to do in the films in comparison to other Avengers.
 * 8) The grief that led her to enslave the people of Westview to force them to play along with her fantasy made sense as she lost her parents as a child, Sokovia was destroyed twice first by a Stark Industries missile used by terrorists then years later by Ultron, her brother Pietro was killed by one of Ultron's drones and she lost the love of her life Vision after Thanos killed him to get the Mind Stone. Despite all this, she acknowledged that her actions were wrong.

The Only Bad Quality

 * 1) She was sadly flanderized in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness where all her character development from WandaVision was reverted to the point that made her from a caring, benevolent, kind-hearted, and selfless superheroine who was willing to move on to a egotistical, sadistic, self-righteous, and ferocious villain who was willingly to kill off opponents and even innocent people for her own goals. While it was understandable that Wanda had suffered a lot while losing her family members and friends over the years, her tragic past does not give excuses for the Scarlet Witch to endanger the Multiverse for the sake of getting her imaginary kids back. She knew very well that the Darkhold held the main purpose of corrupting people like Agatha Harkness in WandaVision, yet she deliberately took possession of it and let it control her to the point where she would be unreasonable to listen. Her counterarguments with the protagonists had been nothing more than plain and pathetic excuses for numerous attempts to absorb the powers of America Chavez, even knowing well that such action would kill the young girl. She only realizes her mistake after she sees Billy and Tommy recoil from her in fear while crying for their real mother. She relents and uses her powers to bring down Mount Wundagore, simultaneously destroying all copies of the Darkhold throughout the multiverse.

Trivia
