The only reason I'd say it's reliable is because Wendy Mericle said it, but like I said she didn't say it was Earth One Laurel. And I stopped taking death seriously the minute they introduced time travel. Between Flashpoint and Sara determined to kill Darhk on Legends and bring back Laurel death doesn't mean anything. Especially if Tommy is Prometheus. Fun fact: Caity Lotz is actually trying to get Katie Cassidy on Legends because they're best friends and roommates in real life. But Katie's filming a movie right now so she seems kinda busy between that and the video game she did so who knows how often she'll pop up.
