There are two different continuities between film and tv (a 3rd if you count Gotham), so there is no need to rob Arrow of Deathstroke and the Suicide Squad. By "Arrow is Batman", he means that Oliver Queen is to the Arrowverse as Batman is to The Justice League: the one with the experience, the heavy backstory, and the skill to lead a team of superpowered wildcards and tech-finatics. Besides, I hardly doubt Deathstroke is leaving anytime soon, the SS maybe.
