I actually think Varro was the only gladiator character who died and didn't really have it coming. :/ There might be exceptions (I don't remember who all died, honestly) but he, despite having his flaws, was actually a good person. A good Roman, even, which I wish really would have come up in Season 3 when Spartacus decided to save the Romans the first time. /opportunity lost

That would've been a great moment. Maybe it never crossed their minds? Such a shame.

My SO and I have gone back and forth about Varro's death and its effect on the subsequent seasons. He is absolutely convinced that the show would have been even more interesting if Varro had lived, and went through a lot of angst and internal conflict over rebelling against his own people. It would be interesting, sure, and it would have helped make clear a lot of the issues with social class built into the Roman system of slavery...

...but I'm of the mind that Varro's death was absolutely necessary for the progression of the plot. He stood as the only "good" Roman in the majority of the main characters' eyes, and was essentially a moral compass, a reminder that the majority of Romans out there in the real world are normal, decent people that don't enjoy doing ridiculously shitty things to each other. If Varro had lived, Spartacus would have remained in that moral grey area, never venturing into that "All Romans are bad, therefore they must die" headspace. The rebels couldn't have justified their actions if they had continued to associate with "good" Romans; they would have seen Roman civilians as people instead of cogs complicit in the machinery of slavery.
