Seriously, old Savitar was just a pilot who god speed powers and named himself after a god. Also no rocking mech suit. He also had a cult and was able to create speedsters. Comic Savitar could have worked, but i think that they really wanted a Future Flash story. However Future Flash only works as a one-off threat cause Barry can't be killed by him. That is the one reason i don't like the twist personally.
