Top 10 Arrow Episodes


you’re no hero
you’re what I always said you were sure
this incarnation of the green arrow rips
off Batman so much you might as well be
running around in a black cape but that
doesn’t mean we aren’t created to some
solid superhero TV along the way welcome
to watchmojo.com and today we’ll be
counting down our picks for the top ten
arrow episodes so tell me are you ready
to die for this list we’re taking a look
at the most action-packed episodes
starring DC’s bow wielding vigilante
Robin Hood I mean Green Arrow number 10
the promise you’re taking the freighter
to getting off this island forever the
shadow swearing vengeance on your mortal
enemy is kind of a forever thing
Oliver’s once trusted comrade from the
island of Lian you showed up in a most
uninviting way during this episode
what do you want
Slade comes to Starling city to remind
queen of the promise he made five years
ago and makes efforts to terrorize the
vigilante in his own home by earning the
favour of his family what are you doing
here mr. Wilson just made a sizable
contribution to my campaign how generous
of him
Slade’s decline into insanity is
portrayed brilliantly throughout the
flashbacks and set the presidents of
what would be one of the show’s most
fearsome villains number nine the clime
return to Starling city be merciless
teach Oliver Queen we only ask for once
in a battle to the death against the
demons head it would be wise to take two
swords when faced with the untimely
choice to save Starling city from the
wrath of the League of Assassins
Oliver picks trial by duel in penance
for not retrieving the former League
member sarahx Lance’s killer I should
have said that preview and from your
shoulder you’re killing my daughter’s
beloved but for thinking me a fool by
League law I have the right to challenge
you to
crowd by God man the final fight scene
between Queen and Ra’s easily goes down
as one of the show’s most impressive
while audiences were forced to watch the
series as hero become vastly outmatched
that fateful conclusion also brought
viewers to the edge of their seats
number 8 unthinkable what does she look
like in your madness slate what does she
say to you
I remember her being beautiful young
kind she would be horrified by what
you’ve done it all ends here while
fighting an internal battle over his own
morality and the all-out war Slade is
waged against his city Oliver finally
decides to bring the villains reign of
terror to a close Babar was most
certainly raised in the epic conclusion
to season two which feature not only the
main players of team arrow but the
League of Assassins as well you must
have quite a bit of faith in this cure
if you’ve come alone
we didn’t come alone the final fight
scene between Oliver and Slade made sure
there was no shortage of jaw-dropping
stunts and emotional tension
but maybe I’ll be merciful enough to let
you live and see your surgery car number
seven Deathstroke Halloween was six
months ago asshat now get off the world
or get put down you hear me
upon transforming into the masked Menace
known as Deathstroke and wreaking havoc
on Queen City
Slade’s final goal was to dismantle the
hero’s life from the inside out
the villains aptitude for mental warfare
was ever-present in this episode keeping
all of her second guessing his own every
move go Oliver you okay
god I’m fine bethey Asad here you did it
did what he’s fine she’s fine she walked
into the precinct five minutes ago
safe and sound
stripping the hero of his strongest
support system was only the tip of the
iceberg for what Deathstroke was truly
capable of and illustrated an opponent
that could beat our hero on all fronts
you sure you want me to go are you angry
use that rage well you’re just always
telling me to hold back not tonight
number six vertigo who supplies you with
vertigo tell me now and you live please
kill me whoever you fear fear me more
this is your brain on drugs
now this is your brain on vertigo the
introduction of this elusive
hallucinogenic drug introduced us to a
more darker and grounded version of
Starling city without sounding too much
like a public service announcement this
episode was able to address issues
concerning drug dealing and addiction a
topic not often discussed in a comic
book television show listen Oliver maybe
you need to give it a few hours and the
drug overdose isn’t something you just
walk away from this episode also took
one of DC Comics classic villains and
not only modernised him but made him
absolutely terrifying and original to
boot good wines value is measured by its
vintage the number of years it took to
ferment vertigo
it’s measured in lives number five the
Odyssey do you know anything about the
undertaking I said don’t know hey I’m a
mother I have a son Oliver daughter her
name is Thea she’s just a teenager

just how did Oliver become his alter-ego
the hood while this episode may not
completely answer that question they
take the first steps into chronicling
Oliver’s transformation into the crime
fighter he’s known as today I can’t
leave Yao Fei here to die I won’t the
plane leaves in three hours
if you and your friend are not on it I’m
going to leave without you with our hero
indisposed for the majority of the
episode the present-day time line took a
backseat to Oliver’s flashbacks on the
island Island tower Skyhawk 801 Foxtrot
acknowledged
Skyhawk 801 Foxtrot acknowledged Oh
greener a train on here finally
discarding the pampered playboy trope

begins to tear things up

own smash series on the CW fans of both
shows couldn’t wait for the DC heroes to
cross over in more than just a brief
cameo you wouldn’t have survived much
less come out the other end a hero
somebody who wants to do good if you
didn’t have a light inside of you the
tones of both the flash and arrow
blended seamlessly and every stunt and
special effect was bolstered in order to
support the inclusion of the Scarlet
speedster icing on the cake
actor Niki Terra based performance as
the iconic flash villains live-action
debut was friggin awesome five bombs
planted throughout stunning now you can
stop me or we can solve the bombs you
can’t do number three three ghosts

confront the skeletons in our closet and
let’s just say that Oliver has a lot of
skeletons
what’s the mannequin you look like
you’ve seen a ghost after losing a fight
to the acolyte the arrow is drugged with
a hallucinogen and forced to confront
the three ghosts from his past aside
from being one of the most cerebral
episodes in the series it was also one
of the most emotional specifically
because of the Cameo of his late friend
Tommy Tommy you’re not gonna die down

didn’t let me die Ollie you fought to
save me because that’s what you do what
you have always done you fight to

always seemed to come up short against
me want to know why because you don’t
know in your heart what you’re fighting

finale was unmatched and truly defined
what the series calls a hero not a both
I got my gun I guess it’s up to me to do
