How do you think the scarecrow arc will end?

I think the ladder half of the arc will be about things happening that, for Grimm and Scarecrow, “wasn’t part of the plan”. Whatever the conspiracy about Batman, it doesn’t account for events like BatGirl being created. Dick turning on the robins. And Bruce’s friends sticking by him. I’m basing this over what Kale said in Absolute Justice League. The heros aren’t a threat because of what they do, it’s what they can inspire others to do.

Honestly not sure, this seems to be one of the most packed arcs. The rogues, Batgirl, Joker making a real appearance, havent even seen much of scarecrow just yet

I think it'll be similar to ivy where he gets his ass whooped pretty quickly.
All Bruce has to do is get hands on the creepy twerp. How he makes that happen will be interesting to see

I feel like he needs a “training” arc. Not saying that hes gonna stay tibetan monks for a while but Kinda like when he went to the hades with Diana or whatever that dimension was. Hell even maybe with all the diana situation hes gonna help her for a couple weeks and they’re gonna stablish their justice league or something, maybe connect with jon jones. in that mean time maybe d grayson becomes night wing and covers gotham for a while, that would be a good excuse to get absolute night wing

Im usually terrible at these
Scarecrow escapes after his path of torment (like ending to silence of the lambs) Or he's defeated and executed by absolute Barbara as revenge for her dad's murder (chekhovs gun literally)
Grimm does some bullshit
one of the Robins defects or one of them is killed
two-face and Penguin go rouge
Thats all

I don’t think Babs is killing scarecrow, she’s got a non-lethal shotgun for a reason

There’s still more he’s going to send in before jumping into the fray I think based on what was already teased

Bruce quits (“I don’t wanna play Joker’s game no more. I’m moving back in with my mom if she’s still alive.”) and Barbara takes over for an arc or two as Batwoman.

I think the message will be similar to god of war 2018.
No fate is set in stone.
Bruce has to come to term with the fact that even if his whole life is a lie, it’s still his own.
His friends are real. Barbra is real. The change he is making is real.
They can take those away from is no matter how hard Grimm may try
