Lord Tirek was a major threat, I agree with that, but he wasn't all that intimidating. He didn't have to do much to defeat the Mane 6. All he wanted was to steal all the ponies' magic in Equestria. Twilight's Kingdom was more about Twilight's realization and Discord's redemption. There was no serious character development. Twilight complained about her role as a princess (like she did all season), Princess Celestia chooses Discord over Twilight, the first idea Twilight gets for opening the chest was research in the old castle's library, the princesses decided to save their magic rather than come up with a solution to stop Tirek, they ordered Twilight to not get her friends involved, Twilight lies to (terribly) and abandons her friends, the princesses' plan to hide Twilight was a complete failure, the rest of the Mane 6 were easily capture, and Twilight and Tirek got into an epic battle to a standstill, only to have Twilight drop the ball in the end (again). As for Tirek, he's just a power-hungry brute who uses persuasion to make people give him what he wants. So no. They're not as redeemed as you think.

I'm looking for a villain who is highly intelligent, less arrogant, willing to do anything, extremely careful, and is able to push each of the Mane 6 to the edge. I thinking another epic battle sequence. With higher steaks, this new villains will allow the Mane 6 to learn a lesson that make them mature just a little.
