* IdiotPlot: The Legends attempt to retrieve the vial of Christ's blood only a few hours before their past selves did, rather than going back in time a few years further and retrieving it when there isn't a war going on and their and the Legion's past selves aren't running around to muck things up.

** Despite the fact that the power of the Spear has been described all season as "rewriting reality in a way that can't even be undone by using time travel to change history," in this episode we see that the Legends are able to undo its rewrite of reality by...using time travel to change history. Even with this franchise's complete lack of internal consistency regarding time travel, this is still a pretty major case of NewRulesAsThePlotDemands.

Internet Backdraft is now Flame Bait and being dewicked per TRS.


* InternetBackdraft:
** The inevitable reaction of the writers teasing the audience with a chance of bringing Laurel back and then not doing it; the fact that Laurel herself seemed to vindicate herself being StuffedIntoTheFridge. Especially since Marc Guggenheim admitted that he briefly considered having Katie joining the cast of "Legends" but then decided to put her back on "Arrow" as Black Siren.
*** The fact that she was drinking wine also raised some ire, since the real Laurel was a recovering alcoholic.
** The Black Flash killing Eobard mainly because it just feels ''wrong'' for Eobard not to die on his parent show, ''Series/TheFlash2014''... not to mention the fact that Barry had nothing to do with the final defeat of his most personal enemy (and yes, this ''does'' count his death from ''The Flash'' Season 1).
** Malcolm Merlyn pulling a KarmaHoudini yet ''again''. Bastard just [[JokerImmunity won't go away]], no matter how much the fans wish it. Downplayed as his subsequent appearance in the ''Arrow'' season finale apparently does have him KilledOffForReal.
