A Suicide Villain is someone who decides to be a villain for the purpose of getting killed.
Otherwise known as "suicide by cop" or "suicide by hero", the process of being a "suicide villain" is not a spur of the moment activity. Great planning is put into crafting a villain persona to identify as someone who needs to be "taken down".
The catch is that this is not done to benefit the perpetrator, but rather to cause damage to the person they are goading into killing them. This is done to damage their reputation or to force them to violate their moral code against killing.
This is similar to the Kamikaze pilots of Japan during World War II, whose dedication to their country and their emperor were such that they willingly killed themselves to cause damage to their enemies.
