Nancy helps break Vecna's curse by confronting him in his Mind Lair in the Upside Down, where she, Steve, and Robin physically attack him with fire (Molotov cocktails) and gunfire, causing his concentration to break and vines to detach, weakening him enough for Eleven to later revive Max and ultimately defeat him, though Nancy's role was key in this direct assault.

There's no single "saddest" death, as viewers find different deaths most heartbreaking, but Ali (Player 199), Ji-yeong (Player 240), and Kang Sae-byeok (Player 067) are consistently cited as the most tragic due to their kindness, betrayal, and lost potential, with Ali's betrayal by Sang-woo being particularly crushing, and Ji-yeong's sacrifice for Sae-byeok heartbreaking because Sae-byeok died anyway. Other deeply sad deaths include Sang-woo's suicide and the tragic end of Player 222 (Hyun-ju).

Yes, Will Byers is in love with Mike Wheeler, not Eleven; this was confirmed by actor Noah Schnapp and heavily hinted at through Will's art and actions in earlier seasons, with Season 4 making his feelings for Mike explicit, leading to a complicated "love triangle" dynamic with Eleven.
Before they embark into the Upside Down, Will comes out as gay to his family and close friends, explaining that Vecna showed him visions of his failed and distant relationships with his loved ones after they learnt the truth.
