Exactly! That's completely true imo, that's exactly how I think and feel about it! I love villains that are built up from as close to the beginning as possible, we've had time to get to know them even if it's as slowly as Blackbeard has been, as the payoff should be worth it too imo!
He's currently my favourite villain I've seen in any series maybe? He just really screams "a true pirate" to me and he's so unpredictable, cunning and just dastardly!
I shared your "spoilers" on a couple of Discord servers i'm part of and if I were still part of some others, I definitely would have s
hared them too! Had to share that greatness to others!
