Kreese is no longer the villain of Cobra Kai, he is [SPOILER]

Kreese’s status as Cobra Kai The main villain was abruptly shaken by a surprising new development in the Netflix series. After Cobra Kai At the end of Season 5, Daniel LaRusso and Johnny Lawrence thought they had seen the last of Terry Silver. But it turns out that his legal troubles and the loss of his Cobra Kai dojo were just obstacles for Thomas Ian Griffith’s character. The main antagonist of The Karate Kid Part III has seemingly resumed its position as the biggest threat to Johnny and Daniel’s dojo.

Cobra Kai Season 6’s second batch of episodes offered a number of surprises, with one of the biggest being the revelation that Terry Silver was aligned with Sensei Wolf, the leader of the Iron Dragons dojo. As a flashback confirmed, Terry Silver managed to avoid legal consequences for his actions in Seasons 4 and 5, subsequently freeing him up for a tense reunion with Johnny, Daniel, Chozen, and Kreese. When bringing him back, Cobra Kai returned the title of its main villain to Karate Kid Part III character.

Terry Silver’s return completely changed Kreese’s role

Terry Silver is the more dangerous of the two villains

The way in which Cobra Kai bringing Terry Silver back into the picture completely changed the dynamic between Kreese and the two main protagonists. The animosity between them hasn’t disappeared, but there was a noticeable difference in their priorities when they first saw Silver in Barcelona. Kreese seemed to forget his revenge on Johnny and Daniel, with his hatred for Silver driving him from that moment on. In a sense, Silver became the villain on both sides in the Cobra Kai-Miyagi-Do conflict.

He is also the biggest threat to Johnny and Daniel. An example of this idea is the fact that Terry Silver had one of his former minions, Dennis De Guzman, kidnap Daniel. His willingness to dedicate himself to completely criminal activities perfectly demonstrates the difference between the two characters. Both are technically villains, but Silver pushes boundaries that Kreese doesn’t usually cross. For all his flaws, it always seemed unlikely that he was responsible for Daniel’s kidnapping.

Terry Silver’s team is the favorite to win the Sekai Taikai

Even the strength of Terry Silver’s Sekai Taikai team underscores the role he has taken on Cobra Kai final season. It’s true that Sekai Taikai’s continuation is no longer a guarantee after Kwon’s death, but if it continues, there’s no doubt who will have the upper hand. The Iron Dragons are easily in the best position to win. Their captains and captains are talented fighters, with Axel in particular being someone of either Cobra Kai teenage fighters would be difficult to beat, as Robby and Miguel seemed unable to beat him during their fight.
