I think that most of us were almost at a "get the reveal out of the way" point, with regards to Dr Alchemy. As others have mentioned, it was super obvious.
On a random note, I gotta love the power of the pep-talk, in this show. Not only are they basically an insta-win button for Barry, they can even help control Caitlin's powers now.

Looks like Sarah Lance is fighting Deathstroke. I wonder what side he'll be on in the Invasion
The writers admitted Supergirl was only "technically" the start of the event, so wasn't expecting much from that. What we did get was good, imo.
Flash was flat out awesome. They really put over Kara as invincible compared to the cast, which paid off in the Flash and Arrow vs the World plot.
And just in general, Ollie's reaction to her power levels in training was brilliant. Here's a character that has PIS as his super power, and runs into a brick wall of plot personified.
Ironic that something Barry had done was the source of drama in yesterday's part of the crossover, when usually it's Oliver or someone, and Cisco voting for Ollie to be team leader at first instead of Barry... That was cold, man.
I know it's considered fashionable to shit on Supergirl's show, but Arrow's part of this week crossover was even worse. 👇 Pointless filler about hallucinations of lives they could've had, blahblah, Deathstroke was part of the illusions (as sadly expected) and he along with the other previous villains of Arrow (minus Ra's) were all jobbers in their little cameo appearances. I wasn't expecting much with the Slade appearance as mentioned before, but wow. That was worse than I could've imagined. 👇

Lmfao I also love how conveniently that gun was there for Ollie to use against the Dominators and they could magically fly the escape ship
And the escape ship had exactly the right amount of seats for all of them.
That gun placement was just ridiculous, though.
Supergirl and Wally goofing around was the highlight of the show.

That episode alone may have ruined the whole crossover event for me. Hell, the two part crossover with Savage (before Legends was out) seemed to have a lot more action than this.
The Savage two parter was definitely better.
Legends is going to need to hit it out of the park to save this event. Flash and Ollie vs The World was a decent start, but Arrow was straight up filler..
