The nominees

Sara Lance - Obvious front runner can kick your ass and your disbelief at plotlines

Damien Darhk - He's just always a good time IMO

Felicity Smoak - She's like Dan Marino at Pitt, she's going to lose points for being the first good character, plus it seems like she's being used less and less

John Diggle - Same deal as Felicity except he's been used more and more

Supergirl/Kara Danvers - Tends to shine over Arrow and Flash on the crossovers and her decisions have resulted in fewer obvious threats to the world than those 2 as well

Martian Manhunter/J'onn J'onzz - Just nice to see as a live action regular, and they've rolled him out in a deliberate manner to keep him interesting

The Flash/Barry Allen - Only truly iconic character in the universe

Elongated Man/Ralph Dibny - Actor is perfect, got the loveable asshole thing down

Mr Terrific/Curtis Holt - Very strong character in terms of powers, skills, and backstory

Deathstroke and Grodd were strongly considered for this list but they've been on a handful of eps the last 4 years

How did Felicity make this list over Oliver?

For the most part I like the casts on Flash and Arrow. LOT has improved immensely in that department with its cast changes over the past season.

Supergirl's cast has been hit-or-miss since the beginning.

Deathstroke and Reverse Flash are easily the two best recurring villains in the Arrowverse.

I am Team Felicity!
I cannot get enough of her.
Every scene she comes on, I either go "mmmm", or "another new outfit". To which my wife responds, "You're a mess".

I also like Sara.

I vote other.
Mick Rory.
Most of the characters listed either annoy the fuck out of me, or arent as good as Mick. Damien Darhk was a close second.

Yeah, it's Mick Rory right now. He's killing it on Legends.

Yep. So easily him.

Easily Mick Rory. Crazy he's not even in the poll.

Dom Purcell looks like he's having a fucking blast playing him.

Now that I see the Worst Current Character poll, I cant believe that I forgot about Caitlin Snow/Killer Frost. I would rank her third best.

Darhk due to Neal McDonough. Sara and Rory tied for a close second.

I voted other for Mick with Ray probably being a close second then Dinah and Zari.

I like the Arrow cast and think everyone is pretty good. The only one I would be ok with losing is Renee.

Flash I like everybody but Wally.

Legends probably has the best cast of all the shows. I'd like to see Amaya go, but if the alternative is replacing her with Wally she can stay.

Supergirl probably has the weakest cast by far. If they ditch James and Alex and have it just be Winn, Kara, J'onn and Lena I think it would make for a better show.

Mick works great in a team setting like LOT. I am really starting to like the new Black Canary on Arrow.
