I actually think that Hyde may be less of a villain than some may picture him as. He's ruthless, strong, and somewhat vindictive (though it would seem mainly towards Rumple). He brought others from the LUS so that their stories could run their course. That does not sound totally like a villain. He made a deal with Rumple (but given the circumstances with his life on the line, who can totally blame him), but then again, everyone on the show has made a deal with Rumple. I can actually see them working both Jeckyll and Hyde as anti-heros.

I think there will not be any single clear antagonist. I would say that there may be factions. You'll have the LUS characters providing some minor villains. You'll have Gold and his manipulations. You'll have the EQ on her own (there is a definite love/hate relationship with Rumple and the EQ).

This is going to be interesting.
