In the finale, Dark Strange was transporting characters to(and from) other universes. So he definitely chooses to keep himself locked inside the pocket reality.

I'm not saying he's necessarily her equal. But he does seem more powerful than his mainstream counterpart. I doubt regular MCU Cap could casually beat up Asgardians like that. That being said, all we know about that version of Steve is what we see in that brief sequence (it seems to be the universe where Pym murdered most of the Avengers), so we don't actually know what that version was like pre-serum.

^ Ah good point. Plus they may have had to give him further enhancements given what they were up against and with the limited number of Avengers they had left.
I recently finished season 2. My feelings about the show haven't changed; just like season 1, it's a mixed bag. Some episodes are winners, but humour is used maybe too often as a source for plots. I know they are just trying to replicate the tone of the MCU, but it gets into illogical plot points for some episodes.
It's also irritating how some characters are consistently treated. Thor is a constant dumbass, Thanos comes onto screen only to get nerfed in a way that is supposed to make us laugh but totally wouldn't happen in the live action MCU. And Tony Stark, Black Widow and Captain Carter are given high amounts of plot armour so they can overachieve in their appearances. Peggy Carter really became the central character of season 2, and seemed to have a powerset that approached the Hulk - way beyond anything Steve Rogers did as Captain America. It almost made me want to watch the live action Peggy Carter from Doctor Strange 2, who get cuts in half by Wanda Maximoff (something which is totally plausible, but would never be seen in What If...?)

Thought bro Thor vs the stick in golden child Captain Marvel's arse was one of the best moments tbh.
"You are the pahty poooper!"
For Thor this is leagues better compared to other embarrassing moments, and makes Marvel look kind of lame.

Of course, he's white! Thor, Stark, Stephen, character flaws are for white people.

Not to mention Peter Quill mopping up a Dairy Queen if he wasn't Star Lord. Basically calling Peter a loser who lucked into better things.
