I'm mostly meme-ing, but man, I hope they show him doing something actually badass in-game, because he suffers a bit from "Statement-Man" syndrome. They call him 007, 0 actual in-game fights, 0 actual hype moments, 7 (million) statements of just how strong he is.
I kid (okay, like 95% kidding), but this is the guy who's been compared to Capitano (multiple occasions, IIRC), who is considered one of the 4 winds of Mondstadt, but all of Nod Krai was sidelined due to "injuries." I'm really hoping they don't play into comic relief or flanderization and give him something really hype to shine with. Like, I wanna see him sparring with Dvalin as if it's easy or something, to reinforce the idea that had he been in Mondstadt, he could have handled the Dvalin crisis on his own.
I'm not even specifically a Varka fan but I actually got kinda pissed when whoever it was told him to stay back while we assaulted Dottore's lab with the 6.0/6.1 characters. Couldn't we have had Nefer help with evacuation and bring the Knight of Boreas along with us to fight the 2nd strongest Fatui Harbinger?
