I actually watched the new episodes, and it took Kara a few people's lives to remember she can do this ice breath trick to stop the fiery alien. And Barry's been going faster at the expense of his intellect (what did I say about living with choices, et al?), as he now sucks as CSI in comparison to the new guy and requires Team Flash to suggest all plans and explain every scientific thing to him (despite being previously described as a self-made scientist).

The New Rogues was a first episode in a long line in which Barry himself figured out the method to stop the bad guy's ability, rather than having Wells1/Wells2/Caitlin&Cisco explain it to him, while reminding that he can go faster.

Arrow's alright, but the writing for superpowered heroes ended up on the "Forgot they have powers" stage. Too bad Barry uses his instant reaction only to catch coffee cups, instead of grabbing Mirror Masters before they jump a whole meter and a half into the mirror.
