It ties her to The Flash for future shared-universe shenanigans, and uses a character we already love to establish her.
The former’s connection with Cisco right now feels a little like how Barry himself was introduced as a love interest for Felicity before spinning-off. In terms of the Legends stuff, I’ve liked Kendra since she was introduced, and Carter’s a non-annoying though slightly underdeveloped presence that really needs more time. We know all of these people really well by now, and seeing that come to fruition is the inherent pleasure of a crossover episode. Even watching Oliver, Thea and Barry fight Savage while in street clothes was cool, and it’s great to see characters interacting with each other with a full sense of self, rather than just for the sake of it. It was like a DC TV Christmas party, such was the sense of fun and celebration present in those scenes. That said, I doubt anyone really cared as soon as they were all in Oliver’s apartment, enjoying drinks and pigs in blankets. As Oliver himself points out, none of them actually have powers, and so getting them involved with a bad guy with knives, magic and a centuries-old grudge against two people they barely know was probably a risky move. enlisting Team Arrow’s help in the first place, it’s a tad flimsy.

And that’s not the fight’s only disturbing revelation: It turns out Oliver-X and Kara-X - whose ship landed in Nazi Germany instead of America, a twist on Superman’s origin story in Red Son - are married (I wrote “EHow is Thawne alive? Time travel! Does that make sense since we saw him die on Legends of Tomorrow last season? No, not really! But who cares? I love watching Tom Cavanagh as Harrison Wells. But alas, duty calls! Felicity and Iris receive an alert that the Nazis are attacking some corporation, so Flash, Green Arrow, and Supergirl head out for their confrontation with their Earth-X doppelgangers.
