He was only terrible because the Arrowverse writers nerfed his powers almost completely except for rage vision, in the comics he could control the whole emotional SPECTRUM, shoot laser beams, make energy constructs, TOTALLY underrated. Even the comic version is unliked by the fandom. His wikipedia page has a reception section which lists him as one of the worst supervillains of all time.

They only chose him because they needed an expendable forgettable villain to act as a plot device to make Flash and Arrow fight, which was the real plot of the episode. Still, I think they should've included his other powers as well. Yeah they should have done that, just so his codename would make sense. At this point Prism was more appropriate then Rainbow Raider.
