Why Hawkeye deserved to survive Avengers Endgame
author
Summary
Everyone is entitled to their opinion, I want to make that clear. But since the Black Widow film came out, hell since Avengers Endgame came out, and Natasha Romanoff [Black Widow] lost her life to save the world / return it to normal, the level of HATE that I’ve seen for Clint Barton / Hawkeye [now Ronin?] has been horrific!Natasha was an amazing and complex character, there is no disputing that, she dominated the franchise since her first appearance, and I legitimately cried at her demise. But to say it should have been Clint, and people posting threats to stop watching or making disgusting comments against the writers or Jeremy himself is simply childish. I want to show his qualities and why he deserved to live.
Note
Will give my views on each film, and Hawkeye's part in them.

Legacies

Just one last further point which has been touched on before.

EVERYONE who's passed in the franchise has left behind a legacy.

Tony:
Peter Parker - [protege / mentor and father figure]
Morgan - [daughter / only blood relative]
Pepper - [Wife / confidant]
Happy and Rhodey - [close friends]
Avengers [team-mates -- no doubt all those left will feel the loss of their friend and leader]

Steve:
Bucky - [Best friend] - his last connection to his life pre-Captain America -- who's now been left in the current time on his own [thankfully, he's got new friends in the shape of Sam, Shuri, Ayo, Sarah ect.
Sam - [Best friend] - their bond was an important part of the franchise, so much so he left the Captain America mantle to him.

Pietro:
Wanda - [younger twin sister] - shown in WandaVision she still misses him greatly.
Clint - [frenemy] - they playfully taunted each other a few times, but still proved himself during the Ultron fight, and gave his life to protect Clint and the child he was protecting. [Clint gave his 3rd child the middle name Pietro]

Natasha:
Yelena - ["sister"/friend - who will no doubt seek answers for what happened]
Alexei and Melina - ["father" and "mother] - Much like Yelena, I have no doubt they'll be seeking justice for Natasha.
Antonia / Taskmaster - [former enemy] - in Black Widow, it was revealed the key task to ensure Natasha's acceptance into Shield was to kill Antonia's father, and Natasha left her be killed too [or so she thought] - many years later, it's shown she survived and was brainwashed to become Taskmaster - which Natasha freed her from -- as she's till alive, she could appear further in the franchise.

EVERY WOMAN IN THE MARVEL UNIVERSE!! - Natasha was the 1st female Avenger, she is not the last.

Clint Barton / Hawkeye / Ronin --- [RECRUITER - SAVIOUR - BEST FRIEND / FAMILY]:

I've said everything I need to say on the subject:

They loved each other, they protected each other, they trused each other and both tried to die to protect the other.

She was an aunt to his children / he gave his son the male equivalent name of Natasha -- Nathaniel.

He's was shown in Endgame to harbor guilt over her death, blaming himself.
If / When Yelena comes knocking, it's going to be ONE HELL of a meeting / introduction.

I can't / don't want to believe that Clint will be killed - as that would leave more kids without a parent - [Tony / Morgan]

But who knows, I can't see the future, I'm not a witch [Loki quote]

How do you think that meeting will go? / What will happen next?
