3xZ picked Poor:
+ Emily Kinney did an amazing job portraying Brie Larvan. Even better than in The Flash 1x18. It's great to see a super tech-genius villain. Most of her quotes, especially the ones that contained the word 'bee', are memorable. The only negative thing is that she always gave time to F-oldemort (even Voldy is by far better than her) to be not killed. I really wished she took of the microchip from the latter's spine so that she will be paralysed again. (The chip was supposed to be a wedding gift.)
+ Laurel shone in this episode. She gave positive inputs to her ex-boyfriend, even stating that he is 'the beacon of hope' (in which Thea adopted it to Foldemort/Team Arrow). Plus, her canary cry was useful to save Ollie's life.
+ Curtis Holt as the IT guy of Team Arrow is better than Foldemort. Though I don't like that he exaggerated things too much. So un-Arrowcharacter-like and more Cisco-like.
+ The Arrow team training scene in the beginning is fantastic. They should do it more often. XD Ollie's pop culture reference about Harry Potter is LOLish (until it was overdone).
+ It's nice to have more screen for Thea.
+ Wassup Darhk?! I truly sympathised you now... Bonuses for Malcolm's brief appearance, the unexpected little of bro of Dig, also Mama Smoak and Papa Lance.

- Is this Arrow episode or The Flash?? Why are there so many pop culture references, even more than The Flash ever had, that make me UGH??!! Were the writers out of idea? Or want to blend them now? Y'know, The Flash getting darker and Arrow getting lighter than ever.
- Another minus point for being too like The Flash's episode. Only the genius people who can solve the problem. Team Arrow was basically useless here.
- Seriously, the bee robots are defeated too easily. The hacked ones by Holt was fine, but the just being malfunctioned by a floor lamp?
- Oliver had no character here. Only bad mood all the time, except for in the end. :) Is this even a Green Arrow series?
- Poor script. Almost every line contained the word 'F.......' or pop culture references.
- Other minuses that make me pick 'poor' are for any scene and dialogue of Foldemort.
