The recent trailer of the series hinted that Felicity Smoak will soon be making a big change in her life. It was revealed that she could be taking on the role of Oracle when the season returns.
Fans have been speculating the idea of it since there was the possibility of Damien Darhk paralyzing her from the waist down.

The promotional trailer hinted at the idea of Felicity in an unfortunate situation when Oliver arrived at the hospital welcomed by Donna Smoak.
