I have to say it wasn't bad.
The map was a unique addition, and the village of the Stepford Smilers was rather unique local.
And we may have a vision of what would have happened if Twilight Sparkle a. tried to make friends and had it go wrong, and b. went totally evil. But this Starlight Glimmer didn't seem to have Twilight's social awkwardness...
Recurring villain, anybody?
Fluttershy, when have tweets ever made sense? *snerk*
There is a SPELL to take away one's Cutie Mark?! That's... kinda scary.

It's not the romving that is scary, ti's the fact that afterwards she gave them a new cutie mark which is supposed to be impossible. Would have been rather handy as a punishment though for unicorns like Sombra since it suppresses everything about them including their magic.

Still kinda scary, if you think about it.
I'm surprised Twilight didn't attempt to arrest her, or order her arrest, or sent a message to Canterlot to issue an arrest warrant.
Still, you'd THINK that an alicorn would be more powerful than a unicorn. How was Starlight able to overcome Twilight's magic and tear off her cutie mark?
.........unless....
Recalling the video game "Street Fighter", each character has a super move/attack.
However, when performing that move, that's when the character is most vulnerable, since all of his/her defenses are down, and everything is geared toward attacking, not defending...
Hmm...maybe Starlight's attack hit Twilight's horn right when she was casting her spell, and that's why her magic failed...
2945237 You make a good point. That shouldn't have worked.
2945221 I have to wonder now though... Would it actually IMPROVE a pony's skills if they are worse than everyone else or would it drag everyone else down to that now level? Second way to defeat the new enemy, bring in Sweetie Belle and watch as all the food becomes charcoal.
