* CoveredInScars: Dick's sporting some nasty scars over his chest, presumably gained during his time as Nightwing.
* CurbStompBattle: Nightwing's first encounter with Deathstroke results in him being beaten bloody and kicked through the wall of a nightclub.
* DeathByAdaptation: [[spoiler:Hamilton Hill is killed by Deathstroke in the first episode]].
* DeCompositeCharacter: In this universe, Oracle is Dick's computer network which he uses to fight crime, while Barbara is, well, just Barbara. Eventually, Barbara takes on the Oracle role proper, just like her comic counterpart.
* TheDragon: Wintergreen, to Deathstroke.
* TheDreaded: Deathstroke is a highly-recognized international terrorist.
* EvilCounterpart: [[spoiler:Red Hood]] is wearing a red version of Nightwing's ChestInsignia.
* ExpectingSomeoneTaller: Nightwing says this of Deathstroke when they meet for the first time.
* FakingTheDead: Following being shot by the Joker, [[spoiler:Barbara]] did this between the time Dick quit as Robin and the present day.
* GoodIsNotSoft: Nightwing won't hesitate to dislocate or break a mook's fingers to get information on Deathstroke.
--> '''Nightwing:''' I've got nine more fingers before this gets serious...
* GrievousBottleyHarm: One of Hamilton Hill's guards smashes a beer bottle over Deathstroke's head in the first episode; he has a brief OhCrap moment on realizing it hasn't worked before he gets shot to death for his trouble. In Episode 3, a club bouncer tries this on Deathstroke and gets kicked into a wall in return.
* GroinAttack: During their rematch in Episode 5, Nightwing kicks Deathstroke in the balls to get out of a NeckLift the merc has him in.
* GunsAkimbo: Deathstroke, natch.
* HandicappedBadass: Averted with this version of Deathstroke. His comic-book counterpart has only one eye and is ''still'' feared as a master assassin; here, he's got both eyes working just fine.
* HeroesWantRedheads: Dick has the hots for Barbara, just like their comic counterparts.
* IWorkAlone: Nightwing insists on this.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Bruce, ''big time'', and the Jerk aspect of his attitude is the reason Dick cut ties with him. The Gold aspect comes in Episode 4, when Bruce admits to Dick that, as much as Dick made his mistakes, so did he.
* JourneyToFindOneself: [[spoiler:Why Barbara faked her death after being shot by the Joker]].
* MomentKiller: Batman himself does this in a flashback in Episode 2, calling Dick (Robin at the time) over his comm-link just as Dick's about to share a kiss with Barbara. The two attempt to kiss again, only for the irritated Bruce to snap, "Robin, ''now!''"
** Then in Episode 4, ''Oracle itself'' does this just when Dick and Barbara are on the verge of kissing.
* NeverHurtAnInnocent: Notably, when Deathstroke attacks two of his targets at crowded venues, he gives the bystanders a clear opportunity to get themselves out of Dodge before he starts killing anyone. The only people he actually fights or kills are his targets, their guards, and Nightwing.
* NoHoldsBarredBeatdown: The opening of Episode 4 shows, in flashback, the Joker's infamous beating of Jason Todd with a crowbar.
* OffWithHisHead: [[spoiler:How Deathstroke kills Hamilton Hill]].
* OneManArmy: From the moment he shows up out of the elevator at Senator Hamilton Hill's reception in the first episode, Deathstroke manhandles ''20'' guards with relative ease, with only the last six giving him a brief moment of trouble--emphasis on ''brief''.
* PreAssKickingOneLiner: Deathstroke delivers one in the first episode before single-handedly laying a smack-down on the guards at Senator Hamilton Hill's reception.
--> '''Deathstroke:''' I'm here to congratulate the senator.
* TheStinger: At the end of Episode 5. [[spoiler:Despite being sniped in the head, Deathstroke is NotQuiteDead]].
* SuperSoldier: Deathstroke was the result of a government training program designed to create a meta-human army in response to the rising meta-human population. Unfortunately for them, he would eventually [[TurnedAgainstTheirMasters turn against the people behind the program]]. [[spoiler:Hamilton Hill was one of the program's organizers]].
* SupremeChef: Barbara.
* SwordAndGun: Deathstroke, with a helping of KnifeNut as well.
* TakeUpMySword: In Episode 4, Bruce admits that, for all the bad blood there was between them, he still wants to entrust the mantle of Batman to Dick when he himself should eventually die.
* ThatManIsDead: After dispatching Senator Hill's guards [[spoiler:and before he kills the senator himself]], Deathstroke briefly lifts his face-plate so the senator can see his face. Senator Hill appears to recognize him, addressing him as "Slade;" this trope is the response.
--> '''Deathstroke:''' It's "Deathstroke" now.
* VillainousRescue: [[spoiler:Red Hood]] rescues Nightwing after his first fight against Deathstroke ends badly.
* WalkingArmory: Knives, guns, a CoolSword...yup, that's Deathstroke.
The series synopsis: After a falling out with his mentor [[Franchise/{{Batman}}]], Dick abandons Gotham City and everyone in it. Emerging in the City of Bludhaven years later, Dick takes on the guise of "Nightwing,” easily defeating the petty criminals who infest it.

Can he defend his new home and the lives of it's inhabitants from the most dangerous foe he’s ever faced?
The series consists of one season with five episodes so far, all of which can be viewed on Youtube, with a preview episode which you can see [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EhHoUGlTFEo here]] to start off.
!!This web video series includes the following tropes:
* ArcWords: "It's who we are...it's what we do."
* BadassBiker: Nightwing.
* BigBad: Deathstroke.
* CallingTheOldManOut: Episode 2, which details how Dick became Nightwing, reveals that his transition followed an argument with Bruce [[spoiler:immediately following Barbara's funeral service]] in which he lambasted the Dark Knight for putting his mission ahead of the welfare of his comrades. That argument swiftly got physical.
--> '''Dick:''' I'm getting so sick of this. Every single person you bring into your life gets consumed by this ridiculous vendetta you have! And look at the result! I can't be a part of this anymore.
--> '''Bruce:''' ''(coldly)'' Careful what you say next.
--> '''Dick:''' You and I, Batman and Robin...it's over.
* ChekhovsGun: During their altercation in the flashback sequence in Episode 2, Dick attempts to slug Bruce in the face, only for Bruce to block the attack and use a spinning counterattack that stops just short of Dick's neck; Bruce does this to prove his point that Dick's not yet ready to go solo. [[spoiler:Nightwing later uses the exact same maneuver to win his rematch with Deathstroke in Episode 5]].
* ColdBloodedTorture: Deathstroke employs electric torture and knife-wounds on one of his targets, who's bound and helpless in a chair.
--> '''Deathstroke:''' Let's take it up a notch higher... ''(increases the voltage)''
* CoolSword: Deathstroke wields one.
