Chessmaster and Manipulative B**tard are different types of the same thing. Only difference is Chessmaster controls events from behind the scenes, while Manipulative B is more direct and personal.

Honestly Alejandro fits the Manipulative B better. Scott is more of a Team Killer.

Mal is more of a Sociopath than an Evil Overlord. He doesn't "command minions" or anything, he's just a psycho acting on his own.

Courtney is definitely NOT a Magnificent B**trd. To qualify you have to be the most overpowered villain who is perfect at everything. Only Alejandro and Mal come close due to being Villain Stus.

Sugar doesn't really fit as the Woman Behind Woman/Man Behind Man either. She was pretty out in the open with her villainy. I would put Sugar as a Fat B**ch. Scarlett fits the trope better since she hid her villainy behind Max. Though Scarlett works better as an Evil Genius.

I would put Jo as a Bad Boss since she always takes command but is very mean to her teammates.

Dave might fit as Fallen Hero, since he wasn't a villain to begin with.

Jacques fits The Dragon role better since he really seems like Josee's minion.

There's also a trope called Alpha B**ch which some villains could qualify as, such as Heather, Courtney, Amy, and Taylor.
