Stephen Amell had a hilarious response to Zelda Williams inferring that Legolas has the greatest accuracy among fictional archers. This debate has been raging on social media for more than a day now and the Arrow star wants to make his position known. It’s a strange time for archers in the spotlight as Hawkeye is a couple of months out and the Arrowverse is in a place of transition without their star hero. But, Green Arrow probably deserves a bit more respect when it comes to people carrying around a bow and arrow. Amell told the actress that she better put some respect on his name. Despite the field being laced with mythic heroes, an actual Avenger, and freaking Katniss Everdeen. Her argument is well articulated and actually thoughtful for the kind of Internet engagement poll that spawned the whole debate. However, things change when one of the heroes in question reply to your tweet.
Legolas is thousands of years old, all of them spent perfecting his archery. I mean, he can shoot arrows from a classic long bow sans arrow rest (he uses his hand like a champ) with deadly precision while riding a shield down a flight of stone stairs.
Hawkeye has a laser sight. https://t.co/atX7Hv8faW
