A list of haters who are already in consideration for this bracket.
(Note: this list is neither final nor definitive. Haters listed here may be removed before the bracket is finalized or replaced by other, more compelling haters based on submissions we receive, but feel free to use this list as inspiration/reference for your own submissions.)
Iago (Othello): The OG of modern haters; the benchmark for both “scheming” and “blaming other people for things that really aren’t their fault”.
Poseidon (The Odyssey): Nothing says “hating” like delaying a guy’s journey home for ten years because you’re mad that he disrespected you once.
Yzma (The Emperor’s New Groove): See the “I’ll turn him into a flea” speech.
Haman (The Book of Esther): The winner if we were judging solely according to the pettiness/“disproportionate response to a minor slight” scale.
GLaDOS (Portal): Spends the whole game talking about how much she hates you. (The homoeroticism of her obsession is a feature, not a bug.)
