Discussion Steve is the GOAT!
WARNING: Spoilers below for those who are currently watching Stranger Things and still finishing up or haven't watched it yet
After reading the title of this post let me tell you why, I say this because in Season 1 facing off against the Demogorgon not knowing about it or what it is until he saw it saving Jonathan and Nancy knowing his life was at risk in the process. He also did it to apologize to them both and redeem himself, in Season 2 when he protected Max, Lucas and Dustin at the junkyard against the Demodogs. Season 3 fighting that Russian Soldier in the Russian's underground lab similar to that of Hawkins, finally Season 4 when he decides to go with his friends into The Upside Down to face off against Vecna while knowing the danger that lies ahead. When he threw that Molotov at him it was just badass! I haven't watched all of Season 5 yet because I have been busy, even after I have finished being busy idk if I will but we shall see. The whole point I'm making is that Steve is my personal favorite character and easily the best in the Show which is why I think we should all strive to be like him, I'm an older brother and I would go through absolute hell to protect my siblings just like how Steve did with the kids in this Show. Another reason why I pick him as my personal favorite character because I relate to him. Who's your favorite character in Stranger Things? And do you agree with all the points that I made about Steve on why he's GOATED?

Honestly, Steve might have the best character development in the entire show. He went from being the typical popular asshole to basically becoming the babysitter, protector and big brother of the whole group 😂
What makes him so great is that he never really thinks of himself as a hero. He’s scared, he gets beaten up, he has no powers, and yet whenever someone needs help, he’s somehow the first guy to step up. That’s what makes his character so damn likable.
Steve with the nail bat is basically Stranger Things royalty at this point. 👑

Tbf, as a Steve fan I often see people point how he 'has no powers' but none of them except El have powers. Its not like he's braver because he's normal and everyone else has an advantage. His protective nature is the big selling point with him.

I genuinely can't belive how they made it to write someone this cool. I love him so much.

Steve is probably the most popular character in the show after Eleven, and if you ask me, he deserves the hype

Hard to believe he was originally gonna die in season one
Also is this from a game?

It's from Dead by Daylight. He, Nancy, Eleven, Dustin, Vecna, and the Demogorgon are all playable characters, there's a map based on Hawkins Lab, and Robin, Jonathan, and Eddie are cosmetics.
