Archvile's great. It's like a miniboss fight every time you see one. His attack immediately forces you on the defensive, compared to the slow movement and attacks of a Baron. He also has the lowest pain chance in the game, so you can't easily just stunlock him or rush him down. But if you're too defensive, he'll just start resurrecting dead monsters. And with his huge health pool, you can't just brush him off with a couple rockets.

So you're forced into this heavy tension of needing to be aggressive enough that he won't start reviving enemies, but defensive enough that you don't get caught in the attack. Meanwhile he's completely fucking up your enemy prioritization because he's super buff, but you can't afford to take him down last like every other buff enemy.

He's just such a wildcard compared to everything else in the game, and the moment you hear him, you're immediately forced out of whatever plan you had and have to figure out what the fuck you're gonna do now. It's cool to have monsters that can stop your heart and rethink everything. Pic related.
