Yeah, I don't recall her being listed, and I feel like she'd still be too unfamiliar with modern Earth society to be the best fit. Being a combat trainer for the Team (and probably for most of the League) sounds like a better role for her.
In the Shade's POV in Episode 109: The Other Half, he thought to himself that Diana asked him to go all out on her when thinking of how the more durable members of the League tend to take hits rather than avoid them. She mostly has been humbled, it's just that the Renegade didn't do more to upgrade the League's gear the way Paul did.
i thought it was established here that diana was a budding titaness or is that only in the main-paul continuity
If Paragon had seen them use the snakes to devour the sapients of a planet, he'd likely destroy all of their ships and have killed all of them by now.
He might have branded them or altered their desires; I know he doesn't like doing the latter but I think he'd be fine with it in the heat of battle. Since Renegade notes they don't seem tech-savvy (though how that squares with them reverse-engineering emotional spectrum and Omega Effect technology, Source only knows), marooning them might be an option.
Maybe Astarte will be the thing that finally pushes Diana to use the abilities that she's been unknowingly preventing herself from accessing. As a Titan, she should be much stronger than she currently is. The things holding her back are the blessings of the goddesses and her own mindset.
True true that could happen the Interesting thing about that happening is if it does Is is how she's going to control the massive amount of power she's unlocked when it does? Because the difference in power between even a baby Titan and what Diana is using now It's like the difference between Batman and Superman. Would her body even be able to handle going to level of power so fast as well?
Yes she won in the comics but like I mentioned she mostly won "because of plot" not because she was objectively the better fighter
Honestly, I just pop my "invisitext to blue bookmarklet" for every chapter, because I never know when it's going to show up (and I mainly read on my mac or iPhone so the highlight trick doesn't work).
Was Theena talking to Artemis when she said this or was this a challenge to Grayven. Also are Artemis, Green Arrow, and Tao all archer Gods. Is there some variation between their abilities or can they all do what the other can if they have the Knowledge/Experience.
He was Awakened at roughly the same time as Artemis, but because she spent all that time in the future, and Tao had been more or less fully empowered by Chang'e from the start, I presume he's the least metaphysically powerful. Style-wise I agree that he'd be a lot closer to Tao.
I was thinking of this as a possible resolution, but since Astarte has already been tied up with the Lasso and apparently remembers her whole life even without it (might be wrong about that part), and is still all bloodthirsty, right now I don't see how it'll work differently in their duel. Right now it reminds me of Granny Weatherwax's mind-hack of the Duchess in Wyrd Sisters to make her confront her true self and the damage she's done, which turned out to be ineffective because she already knew and embraced those things as part of her self-concept (actually the Duchess might make a good Orange Lantern, but in terms of capability and viability for enlightenment, not morality).
Keep in mind just what War's she has been fighting.
I can confirm that the Renegade has never Awakened anyone called Green Artow.
We know that the Citizenry is a only the strongest rule which would mean that Complacency isn't allowed because if you do odds are someone is going to kill you for your position.
You forgot two important points here.
There's no real reason for them to fight, but Shade 1 doesn't have any particular vulnerability to anything Diana can do as far as I know. The only way to kill him is to surround him in blinding light first, and she doesn't have the ability to do that. Assuming that she was fighting at something approaching full effort her speed would make it hard for him to keep up, but I think he'd win eventually.
