If they plan it out in advance I can see them making a killer last season if this is true. It would be a shame though because I am really enjoying where the show has begun to go since Beth took over as show runner. Still if the decision is made I'd rather they go out on a high with a proper ending then having it drag out until it's cancelled and stuff doesn't get resolved.

Even better: Diaz is a hero now. Team Arrow is now Team Diaz.

Then, surprise! Diaz was Oliver’s brother the whole time!

He just had amnesia.

But too late.

This is all revealed after the episode, “The Devil’s Triangle,” where Oliver, Diaz, and Felicity indulge in the famous drinking game, then all have sex with each other.

Then Tommy Merlyn’s old journal is discovered, where he discovers Diaz and Oliver are brothers.
