Many Arrow fans tend to hate Laurel Lance (Katie Cassidy) but no one can deny that she has redeemed herself after taking on the Black Canary persona. Ever since the death of her sister, Sara (Caity Lotz), Laurel has proven herself as an equal to the Green Arrow. Some Olicity fans may say otherwise but we can scream louder than a Canary Cry that Black Canary is an awesome hero!

8. She’s a team player.

9. She doesn’t let fame go to her head. This is what happened after she told Cisco (Carlos Valdes) she knew Barry Allen is the Flash and Oliver Queen is the Arrow.
