He is god... And not any random god: He is the freaking lord of the underworld. He doesn't have to be a villain to be an antagonist. And just because he's a god doesn't mean he can't be killed. In almost every mythology, there's at least one instance of an immortal being felled by another immortal. So it seems to be the standard that immortals can kill each other. That would include gods.

Also, he's not powerful at all. He rules over the land of the dead, but he is not the judge of who goes where, he is not the actual bringer of death, Thanatos is. That's why when Sisyphus tied him up in Tartarus, no one could die. So Hades is ornamental, not functional. He's like the British Monarchy.
