Arrow kept last week's momentum alive with "The Longbow Hunters", an episode, that, well introduces us to the titular assassin ensemble. Let's start there. The Longbow Hunters are a perfect addition to this season. Every member strikes the perfect balance between gimmicky campiness and deadly fighting prowess. While Holy Elissa's Red Dart might come across as more of the former, Michael Jonsson's shield-toting mad-man Kodiak fits into the latter, while Miranda Edwards's Silencer strikes a neat balance between the two. The team is a clear threat to Team Arrow, as they easily counter their abilities and under Diaz's (Kirk Acevedo) leadership, could be a formidable force going forward. On the topic of the team, that storyline started tediously slow, but gradually gained momentum as character development presented itself, for Diggle (David Ramsey) in particular. One concern I have is Diaz actually. He was schooled by Felicity Smoak (Emily Bett Rickards) last episode and continued to be bested by others here as well. He doesn't feel like such a presence anymore, certainly not the same gangster from season six. On the flip side, Oliver's (Stephen Amell) prison drama took it slow, allowing for us to immerse ourselves further into Slabside and the goings on inside its grey walls. "The Longbow Hunters" has a slow-start and downgrades Ricardo Diaz to a Team Arrow punching bag, but its new trio of baddies and the Slabside happenings shine as a trade-off.
