Why the hell did they nerf Reverse Flash? Using canon comic feats he can easily blitze the shit out of Arrow and Firestorm at the same time and then deal with The Flash but in the recent episode he suffers an embarrassing defeat at the hands of Arrow's sneak attack (Kinda like how Batman kills him in the comic books)

They always nerf super OP abilities. Remember the flash vs Arrow fight? I believe Arrow actually landed a punch on flash. When in reality, using canon comic, in the span of time Arrow's was swinging his punch, flash could have run round the earth and back into his initial position and still have more than enough time to dodge the punch.

I think it's because it's not the real reverse flash. i think that he already is morphed into Eddie twane and this was just a clone jutsu ;)

Probably a trap. Like they said, RF has been a thousand steps ahead this entire time.

Yes but the thing is on the tv series he has yet to achieve that level of speed. Lightning can still hit him. He hasnt even reached half his top speed.

it may very well be a trap. however, you have to think of the fact that even during battle people evolve and adapt and learn. so flash and everyone else may have gotten closer to there power and speed needed to at least overwhelm the RF if not overcome him. we will just have to wait and find out.

But on the same note, they have nerfed the hell out of Firestorm, this guy could single handily take out Reverse Flash without trying to think about it, he could have phased through Reverse Flash's attacks, or changed the density of all the Oxygen in the Reverse Flash's body to be lighter than hydrogen or heavier than uranium thus making it impossible for Reverse Flash to combat them. So right now as of all the "OP" characters in the Arrow & Flash Universe the most OP is Firestorm, if he wasn't nerfed.

I am not the most knowledgeable with the comic books per say, but really, does firestorm really have the speed feats to really fight the reverse flash? And I believe the hunter zolomon version of the reverse flash is much more impressive than eobard with his feats.

Firestorm isn't physically as fast, but having the mind of two geniuses can definitely benefit him in that kind of situation. But he doesn't really have to be as physically fast, as Reverse Flash to change the density of an element when he wants to, it just happens, comics...there broken I know, hell if he perfected his skill he would be able to transmutate any element he sees fit to whatever other element he wants, that Firestorm Matrix is a *****. It would be like changing Superman's entire outfit into Kryptonite.

Oh I forgot that firestorm was created from the fusion of two very smart geniuses, but nonetheless they are geniuses in the sense of the 20th/21st century, where as Eoboard is a genius from the 25th century lol, just wanted to mention that. But wow, the abilities you described are indeed very much op (and that potential as you said is crazy), but the thing is I really believe that his reaction time has to be ftl (faster than light) levels if he is to fight against the reverse flash/Barry in their prime. He can't really do anything to them if they can move at a speed that he can't even begin to react to, see what I mean?

Now on the other hand, batman with prep solos the entire cast :cool:

Barry in his Prime is in a whole different level as to everyone in speed, considering that the sum ***** is the Speed Force itself. If I recall right, in a discussion with Superman, Barry has stated that he can move faster than an attosecond, in which case light itself is in a stand still while he is running. So I don't think Eobard is capable of handling that Flash lol. As for Firestorm, in the comics I believe he is now 3 different individuals.....Ronnie, Stein, and I wanna say some athlete, can't remember the guy lol.

Bleh the Bat is good, but easily overrated, yeah he has a contingency plan for everyone, but his contingency plan for himself are the super powered guys (a.k.a. the Justice League :p). But I also believe that any member of his Bat-Family (primarily the former Robin(s)) can take him especially Mr. Jason Todd :p

Indeed,
Damn, that is impressive, but isn't Wally west even faster when considering the bold? Something about him having at one point combined the speeds of all previous flashes and his own speed. Ironically he was still almost stone like when compared to hunter zolomon whose power is the complete antithesis of the flashes.

I know batman is overrated lol, that was the sarcasm in my post and lol
I sure remember that Jason Todd man xD
