Not sure how I feel about Kai Winn, but the intent was for Gul Dukat to be evil. That was achieved. I will say though after his daughter died, the character became a lot less interesting. Less screentime and just felt listless.

I mean Kai Winn was always an evil villain

I 100% agree on Gul Dukat tho. The writers were pissed off about how deep and complex he had gotten and the positive fan response to him so they basically went "Fuck you! He's just pure insane genocdial wizard thing now!" and it sucked.

That's bad writing and the downside of the last season of DS9.

The same thing happened with Spike in Buffy and instead of making him kill babies they went whole hog with him and made him the best character in the show. Pissing off Joss Whedon so much he shoved James Masters against the wall and screamed that he was going to kill him.
