Felicity Smoak has had a bumpy ride on Arrow, going from funny and quirky supporting character to, depending on where you lie on the divide, either one of the best or worst things about the show through her relationship with Oliver.

The relationship drama, and the way it impacted Felicity's character and actions, did have a negative effect in Seasons 3 and 4, and thankfully has been put largely on the back-burner in Season 5. Felicity's arc hasn't always been brilliant, but she's been better served than in recent years.

She's been getting in deep with hacking group Helix this year, and seen her new boyfriend inadvertently killed by Oliver, but she has largely come back into the Team Arrow fold and remains as probably the biggest character on the show after Ollie. As such, and with the fact that she'll surely be a big part of the series' endgame (whenever it happens), it's almost impossible to see them killing her off at this stage.
