Blade made sense based on the pattern (and it was what was originally announced in the February Sneak Peek thread) but as has been pointed out in that thread, once the Howard the Duck PVP went live, Blade was not in the buffed list, but War Machine was. It's the first time in my memory that they've pulled a character so far out of its expected rotation -- WM was just buffed four weeks ago, and as such wasn't due to be buffed for another 4 weeks or so. Winter Soldier would have been a more expected switch-out, since he's due to be boosted next week or the week after. I don't know about anyone else, but I frequently get those two mixed up in my head (I have them both undercovered and not highly leveled, which doesn't help my identifying them) -- hey, maybe the devs mix them up too.

I think they'll likely pull on or two from this week instead of Wasp: 02/02/2017: It does feel like a while since Moon Knight or Quake have been boosted.
bluewolf said: Two suggestions: 1. posting the 3 and 4 as two separate images might make it easier to view, especially for mobile users. 2. To be picky, the off season boosted list applies for PVE during the whole week, so usually 2 events. PVP of course is as you stated (just one event, the first). Perhaps a tweak to your note would help newer players.Thanks!
Excellent job with the new format! Thanks very much.
Can't thank you enough Daywalker for keeping this thread. with the new forum there are 2 threads that I come keep up with - this one and sneak peek. I'm no fan of it but some things are worth enduring it for.
was excited to see my favorite boost group coming up. then realized icebuster hits offseason. I know something has to be buffed that week but can't it be venom, mordo or Elektra week? anyway. thanks again.

MPQ_Daywalker said:Medusa, on the other hand, I feel is very high probability. Ever since the Bonus Heroes launch, it seems that they've been trying to have one of the latest 12 in the boosted 4* list, and Medusa would be the one character that's due that is part of the 12.
