When Doctor Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch) loses his hands. When Black Widow (Scarlett Johansson) completes the mission that allows her to switch sides to SHIELD. He dies when Captain America (Chris Evans) becomes the first Avenger. Kang dies as Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) builds his first Iron Man suit. And it’s not in 2024 or 2025, right before No Way Home or Doctor Strange 2. It wasn’t when the TVA removed Loki to prevent a branch from forming. Kang’s death at the hands of Sylvie happens simultaneously with everything that occurs in a linear timeline. That’s why we can’t simply insert Kang’s death before No Way Home or before Multiverse of Madness. And it’s simultaneous with everything in the Sacred Timeline. The Loki finale also takes place perpetually. Similarly, Kang lives perpetually compared to our vantage point. It’s simultaneous with the past, present, and future. It happened a second ago, and it will happen a second from now. From our point of view, Kang’s death happens right now. Because Kang dies (and lives) perpetually in that place. Therefore, there’s no correct way to set Kang’s death in the MCU chronology.
