In fact a minor villain from the DC universe will be given a more pivotal role in the season according to the report. Damian Darhk, who is a wrecker in Teen Titans, is speculated as being the next villain.

The report strengthens this speculation on the basis of the latest episode, Al Sah-Him. In the episode, Ra's al Ghul (Matt Nable) informs Oliver (Stephen Amell) about Darhk, and how he had previously wished he headed the League of Assassins.

Darhk is also known for his strong connection with H.I.V.E. Reports from earlier this year hinted at the huge role H.I.V.E would also play in creating trouble for team Arrow.

The finale of season 3, entitled 'My Name is Oliver Queen,' of Arrow is set to air on May 13 on The CW.
