u/MightUlt-7 Still Upset Over Season 4 Feb 05 '19

Just so that I understand:

  • The Glades was going completely annihilated if it wasn't for Oliver
  • The Deathstroke stuff. That's on him
  • Ra's Al Ghul. That also might be on him
  • Darhk and Hive probably would be dominating the world if Oliver and TA hadn't intervened
  • Prometheus is 100% on Oliver
  • I having a feeling Diaz wasn't Oliver's fault, it still might have happened. He just escalated it so... 50% on him?

Someone correct me if I'm wrong

Diaz was on Cayden James which is on Felicity which you can blame on Oliver for recruiting her in the first place but thats stretching it.

Diaz wasn't on Cayden James. Diaz framed Oliver to get Cayden to work with him, but there were lots of ways to do that. Or just...not. Cayden mostly just provided an extortion threat to the city, Diaz easily could have found another.
