Who says a human can't stand up to a deity? And Shinigami are hardly deities, they're just human spirits with super powers. And what are Quincy? Humans with super powers.

Also, are you forgetting that a Quincy's main ability is to completely eradicate souls with attacks? I don't know, but that feels like an advantage against a being that is a soul.

How are the Quincy not believable villains? I think they're damn fine villains; they don't play games and they have had a lot of time (you know, a 1000 years or so?) to build up their strategy and strengths. Yhwach is absolutely ruthless as are his Stern Ritter and I'm getting a kick out of watching the Shinigami fall like dominoes. A group of boring invincible heroes makes for a boring story.
