    It makes some sense that Worf would be an expert in Klingon combat, because he’s such a tryhard that strives to be more Klingon than Klingons since he feels like he has something to prove.

      Worf got exposed to Klingon culture and ideals with no context for how they’re constantly falling short. He’s trying to live up to impossible standards, without knowing that’s not really what it’s all about. And honestly, he’s not doing bad. Except for Alexander. Worf is a horrible father, and given his adoptive parents he really has no excuse.

        I love that Worfs horrible parenting has become such a joke because he really was a terrible father. I love Worf, Michael Dorn is fantastic, but the writers had absolutely no idea what to do with Alexander. It all always felt so forced, which I guess was kind of the point.

        Also, Klingon culture had become quite corrupted by that point whilst he was raised outside it with the idea of what a real Klingon is supposed to be. I forgot the exact episode, deep space nine for sure, but he got called the last true Klingon because of this.

        This is from memory, I might be off somewhere.
