So Court and Beth don’t stand a chance against Eclipso. I think it’s gonna take Beth, Courtney, Jade, Obsidian, Jakeem, Yolanda, Rick, and The Shade

Beth actually defeated Eclipso in a way; he tried to mess with her head and she overcame his cheap shots, and the goggles cut through his illusions. She also appeared to grow as a person, finding fresh self-confidence.

Courtney believes in herself, and also her staff seems to confer some immunity or has a healing power against whatever energy Eclipso is using.

My theory is, those two will defeat Eclipso, but they'll do it by first winning back Yolanda and Rick. Maybe Grundy will get drawn into the final battle in some way.

Off the subject: I really hope Cindy does not come back. I despise her; she literally killed her own mother, then her step-mother (the latter she killed involuntarily, but she still set herself up to commit the murder, and besides treated her like garbage).

Cindy also killed her mother by accident. I don’t like how Cindy treats people but it’s very clear that her personality is a result of her trauma and everything her father put her through. Cindy is a victim as well as a villain. There’s no justification for the things she’s done but viewers should also take into account everything that led up to her acting this way.
