For me, it would be GLaDOS.
Portal 2 spoiler
She deleted the one remaining human part of herself because it was just too much to deal with. She releases you at the end of Portal 2 as a path of least resistance measure because "killing you is hard."
What about you, what is your favorite media villain?
My vote as well.
He constantly finds the piece of humanity within whoever hes talking to and then tries to manipulate it.
Its hard to top Gul Dukat.
The great thing about Dukat is that he frequently finds his own humanity. You keep thinking that this time he'll do the right thing and start his path to redemption, but he never does. He always chooses to do the wrong thing even though there's clearly good in him and you're always disappointed and even surprised when it happens. He's like the anti-Zuko.
They're both excellent at being different kinds of evil.
Winn is prideful and ambitious above all else. She sides with good and evil both at different times in service to her own goals. She deludes herself into believing anything that pursuit of personal power is also what serves Bajor.
Winn commits evil in service to her ambitions.
Dukat has the same vices, but with added elements of narcissism and wrath. He briefly tries being good, and almost reaches it when he finds genuine love for and from his daughter, but when his actions lead to her death he lashes out at the universe and becomes entirely consumed by wrath and megalomania.
Dukat's ambition in the end is to commit evil.
