He was barely fazed when Team Arrow burst in. As an enforcer, he had worked for different factions but was assumed by many to be too unstable and extreme; because of this, he has been fired by many criminal organizations. When Damien Darhk rejected him he nearly crossed the line against him by grabbing his arm while protesting. Lonnie has no guilt or remorse for killing innocent people, and does nothing to try to avoid it; he has no sense of honor or morals.
Mob enforcer
Lonnie worked for Rick Pinzolo, the Bertinelli crime family and the Chinese Triad; eventually Rick and many other criminal organizations fired him because they realized that Lonnie was not only too unstable and extreme, but he also lacks a moral compass and a sense of honor.
Stint with H.I.V.E.
Lonnie began working for H.I.V.E., where he made an attempt to stop Jessica Danforth from running for mayor. After Lonnie's set up attack, he escorted Jessica out. When a security guard noticed he wasn't in Danforth's detail, Lonnie attacked the guard with his electric baton. Before he could go after Danforth, Oliver threw him off a balcony. Lonnie was chased by Oliver through the building and over rooftops but managed to escape, though he left his fingerprints behind on a windshield.
Hunting down Damien Darhk
Several months later Lonnie killed his foster parents. Now wearing a mask he went after Damien Darhk as revenge for his betrayal. He managed to find the lair of H.I.V.E. and killed all the guards present. However Darhk had anticipated his arrival and had fled. Lonnie stayed at his former home and placed a boobytrap as he expected a counterstrike from H.I.V.E. Instead Team Arrow showed up. He expressed joy to see them and then run off while planted rifles forced them to take cover. Thea chased him and he knocked her over with an explosive. He mentioned to Thea that he would not hurt her as she had helped him get to his true self.
Rampage in Tevat Noah
Lonnie was able to find the underground H.I.V.E. facility Tevat Noah and infiltrated the place. He killed multiple guards and questioned some to learn more about the facility and where Damien Darhk is. Machin then took control of a house which controlled the CO2 scrubbers of the facility and threatened to stop the life support system. Machin mocked some captured guards about living underground like parasites and then prepared to shut down the life support system. Thea Queen showed up and told him to stop. Machin told her to leave but she identified herself as the one who burned him. Thea tried to talk him down but as Machin did not responded Malcolm Merlyn hit him in the shoulder with an arrow. Machin fired his gun at Malcolm and then escaped the scene.
Against Star City
Using a bomb, Machin planned to destroy at least half of Star City in the explosion. However he was confronted by the Green Arrow. Seeing the vigilante, Machin used a pair of Kamas to engage Green Arrow. After a brutal fight, the Green Arrow was finally able to impale Machin's hand with an arrow against the wall. Machin expressed disappointment that Green Arrow would not kill him, after which the emerald archer knocked him out, leaving Lonnie for the SCPD to arrest.
