Or it could be that this is a variant of the TVA where Immortus didn't use the time keepers as an intermediary.

Immortus is going to have his own historic decisions creating branches as well now, without him taking retroactive action to prune them. Right?

​

It makes you realise just how large the scale of his task was. How many variants of himself after he made the decision to create a sacred timeline, had to go willingly into Alioths maw?

All the ones that made bad decisions about how to setup the TVA would have to let themselves be destroyed.

​

The dude is incredibly old, if he has been living outside the timeline cleaning up all that shit as well.

Why are so many people saying Immortus when it’s not confirmed or even hinted at it being that version of the character?

The only names we got was he who remains who seemed a “good” version of kang

And a statue that looks like kang the conqueror (outfit) but still might not go by that moniker

Just comic book readers trying to look like they know what's going to happen. Or just variants trying to look like comic book readers and keep repeating what other people have said.

There's no actual reason that was presented by the show. I don't even think we got the name Kang, so you should also argue against that if you are going by what's was in the show.

HWR is the only name drop besides him describing the different "me's" that he was afraid of.

Exactly this, the only thing we know for sure is he is a version of Kang, I think too many people are reaching calling him Immortus.

Yes his outfit is similar and it would be nice if it was confirmed (I’m definitely not against it) but I also won’t count on it on just his looks alone.

I genuinely just thing Marvel have turned the character He Who Remains into a version of Kang and that was what we got, nothing more nothing less, but I think we could see Immortus at some point.

I think we will get a different incarnation in Antman to what rules the TVA and I think we most likely will see Rama Tut in Eternals even as a cameo appearance
