Like the best kind of villains in the Arrowverse, Ben Turner a.k.a. Bronze Tiger also saw himself having quite the change of heart over the years. Originally little more than a heavy for hire, he formed alliances with China White before his incarceration led to him becoming an involuntary member of the Suicide Squad.

Perhaps the most integral moment of his journey came when he saved Lyla from death, as that single-handedly prepared him for a redemption storyline - one that we didn't see until the show's seventh season, when he helped Oliver defeat Ricardo Diaz in Slabside Penitentiary and subsequently helped him stop Emiko's attack on the city.

While a lot of his arc felt underdeveloped because it took place off-screen, it was still compelling at the best of times, and Michael Jai White is always incredibly convincing as the character.
