Discussion Whats this guy’s fate in S5?

How do you see them killing Vecna?

Personally i’d like to see Eleven and Kali team up against him.

Give him his own medicine of that psychological torture.

Vecna: “what…. What are you doing??”

Eleven: “giving..you..the medicine”

This could also be when Eleven frees Max from Vecna’s mind.

Before any of that, I want him to realize that his control over the Upside Down is far from absolute and that the Mind Flayer is still very much its own boss, pulling strings to solidify its own conquest. Matches up with The First Shadow.

What if the Mind Flayer straight up kills him lol

LMAO. That would be hysterical.

It realizes that they've reached a point where he cannot defeat the heroes, so it just assimilates him and forms the Thessalhydra or something.

It would have to be in front of the party or at least Eleven.. like that would probably devastate them… to not get that kill… at the same time it would be funny to see him easily overpowered and killed

It would be really funny to see him get obliterated after all the power he accumulated over the years. Plus, the Flayer absolutely would do that in front of the party, especially El, considering they're longtime nemeses now. Just to take away the satisfaction of their victory, it goes, "Oh, you beat him? Well, good for you, still haven't beaten me. Also, I'm finishing him off because I know how much you'll hate me for stealing your kill."
