He Changed the Rules
He won again. Twice.
Ben Linus is both Lostpedians’ and Darkufo users’ favorite character.
He was supposed to last 3 episodes.
He lasted 5 seasons, killed off 3 of the iconic main characters (Locke, Jacob, Dharma — yes, it’s a character) and became the face of the show, and the god of most of the fandom.
Nothing like this had ever happened before in television history.
He changed the rules. For the best.
