Klaus: Because He's The Ultimate Mastermind
Klaus is the most terrifying Original because he is so much more than an Original. He's also a hybrid, and he's also a man who always comes into every situation with a plan.
Other than Klaus Mikaelson, Marcel Gerard is the longest-tenured, strongest, and most terrifying villain in The Originals. He continues to antagonize the main characters throughout five seasons, using dastardly ruses and devious ploys to keep his odious agenda secret.

Kai never had any friends, being a sociopath and nobody ever thought of him in a nice way, not even his family so he had no one to give him a chance. Basically, I think Klaus was the worse villain who became a better man but Kai is just a bad villain who never had a chance.
Freya Was the Best Mikaleson Sibling
Freya being the best Mikaelson sibling is a no-brainer. However, for additional arguments, here is Freya's backstory to refresh our minds and some valid points to prove what we all know. Esther was initially barren, which led her to strike a deal with her evil sister Dahlia.
Mikael has proved many times that he's stronger than Klaus, and of course much more powerful than his other children. Many fans have questioned this detail, but it makes sense.

With all of this in mind, it is important to note that Rebekah is the weakest Original Vampire, I wouldn't necessarily say because she's female, but for the sake of this argument, it's worth noting this, but at the end of the day she might have simply been the weakest child of Esther (strength-wise), and not because ...
Klaus Mikaelson is the strongest of the Originals. His powers are more advanced and potent than that of his Original siblings, including his step-father, because of his Werewolf side. Unlike hybrids and Werewolves, his venom works twice as fast which makes it more lethal than that of regular Wolf or Hybrid venom.
Esther is, along with Mikael, one of the two beings that Klaus truly feared; Klaus is only afraid of Esther, because she knows the Spell that turned him and his half-siblings into vampires, or in Klaus' case into a hybrid, and can turn them back into humans again, or in Klaus' case into a werewolf again; however, ...

Though Kol, being an Original Vampire, is physically stronger than Damon, Damon has used the element of surprise to put up a fight against Kol in their skirmishes.
Lucien. Lucien was the king of outsmarting everyone, including the entire Mikaelson family.
BEST: Marcel Gerard
Though Klaus sees him as a son, his jealousy gets the best of him and forces Marcel to become an enemy. Without the love that exists between the two vampires, there couldn't be such a rich animosity. His ability to conspire against Klaus makes him a smart foe.
However, with anger or being empowered by a specific date in the astrological cycle, Hope could surpass Marcel in brute strength.
