A fantastic ending to a great season but there is one thing i disliked allot.

This new Naevia is just been a pain in the guts. I liked the first Naevia allot but ut this one is just been to much... and her defeating Ashur(yes not the strongest gladiator) after just been training with Crixus for some weeks/months is just unheard off.

She was a body slave since very young age for years.. No fighting skills... and after she was sent to the mines where slaves are working day by by till they die.

And yet she manages to defeat an gladiator 1 v1 wich is ridicilous. Even tho Ashur was injured she shouldve been zero match to him.

I understand the recasting of Spartacus and in this episode he is very very good and makes me for the first time really appretiate his role as spartacus. Liam has a very hard role to fill and he is doing amazing so far.. but Naevia is just... mehhh.

Otherwise i feel actually abit sad for Ashur. Yes he is a thief, backstaber and a worm but he did his role very good and was very close to succeed. And if Glaber actually did lissen to him from start he might have won.. and when Glaber at the end started to take his advices he yet again decided to belive the lies of illytria and to go back to the bad advices she allways gives him wich cost him eventually his life.

Illytria has done nothing else then ruining Glaber. And she got what she deserved at the end.

Rip Oenomeus aswell. Great character.
