Again…. the magic or metas on the show

I agree. Batman is a very grounded superhero with no superpowers but a lot of his most famous supervillains like Poison Ivy, Clayface, Killer Croc, Man Bat, Bane, Solomon Grundy etc have superpowers and are supernatural characters.
Prometheus could easily have the super-strength he has in the comic books and put the steel armour and helmet on near the end of the season and it could work.
It don't matter if it's raining
Nothing can phase me
I make my own sunshine
And if you think you can break me
Baby, you're crazy
I make my own sunshine -

I don't agree with that.
-Ragman totally worked for this episode. It didn't take anything away from the grounded nature of Arrow. In fact that was the best part of the episode.
-The problem is not using magic or metas. But the way they are used. -

I agreejust not completely.
I do like the "Street Level" feel of the first couple seasons. No people with powers, just well-trained and lots of gadgets and tech. But at the same time, I also understand that as the Arrow team gets bigger it makes them more dangerous. In order to get that feeling of overcoming odds, our heroes need to be threatened. We need to feel an urgency that they could possibly lose. As big as the Arrow team has gotten, not sure how many non-meta/magic villains out there could be as big of threats.
This is honestly what made Luke Cage such a boring show. He was never in any danger from the villains. Thus the villains came across pretty pathetic.
At the same time, I don't want them to get too far into the magic as they did last seasons, so I hope they keep it at a minimum. Not sure what they are doing with Ragman yet, but I'm willing to give it a shot.

Nice point, and it makes sense
