It definitely sounds like a mistake. They come back from their holiday break and they have Archangel on their mind still when putting the new update together when it should be Thor. That's what I'm counting on anyway.0

Isn't Strange Sights the one with the scoring bug if you go through Door 1 first? Or has that been fixed?1

By my recollection this is at least the third time there's been an issue with the 5* essential. Not sure why this is so difficult to plan out.0 -
The only thing they've told us is that they're rotating 3 Latest and then 2 Classics, never which characters or in what kind of order. It is perfectly within that plan for Archangel to be next 5* essential.
I agree that it would be nice for it to be Thor instead, but there's nothing that says it "should" be Thor or that it's a mistake to run Archangel except for wishful thinking.2 -
They’ve also messed up the order before. This seems more like a suggestion than fact until it shows up in game at this point.1

Choose wisely!

The problem you’re going to run into for Door 1 in Strange Sights is that someone in your Alliance HAS to do Door 1 for everyone in the Alliance to receive the full ISO bonus. Choose wisely.0

Best Friends Forever (1/9/18) *New Update*
New Buffed Pairs:
Star-Lord (Awesome Mix Volume 2) and Yondu, Blackbolt and Lockjaw, Cloak and DaggerEr...
I’d ague that Black Bolt didn’t need to be boosted with Lockjaw. Dog is man’s best friend, so dog should always be boosted for the event, disregarding any specific man.1 -
bluewolf said:@Brigby For Strange Sights, shouldn’t Thor be the 5 essential? He did not get used yet in the current Latest cycle. I thought he’d be the 5E after Gambit.0

It's so good to see them sticking to their self-proclaimed latest / classics rotation.
It's really hard to keep track of that order, after all, it changes every six weeks.
I mean, who has a memory that long, right?
And I'm also looking forward to seeing the messed up MMR in BFF, again.
Have fun, 4* players.1 -
Other Strange Sights weirdness: in November, SCL9 gave out the tokens as alliance rewards instead of iso for sub rewards. Lower SCL’s gave only iso, per the revision they made a while ago. Who knows if they were aware of this or made a change? I posted in the bug section but no one else commented.0

I'm glad I'm not the only one surprised by Archangel instead of Thor. I hope it is a mistake because I didn't want to chase him until America is in the packs in preparation for the next Shield Training.0

@Brigby can we please get confirmation that Door 1, Slice 1 is fixed. The last 2 times this ran it was wrong. Don't worry, if we don't get confirmation that it is fixed I will be doing Door 1 again and will report my findings.1

Logic says that half of the groups of 3 Latest they've run have been completely out of release order, and that no pattern for how they choose Latest or Classic characters has been released, so it could have been ANY character in a Latest token.
People are getting bent out of shape because the devs didn't follow a rule that is 100% made up by the forums.
I'm all for calling them out when they make mistakes, but the people here basically shouted "Trust fall!" and leaned backwards into an empty room and then got mad when the devs (rightfully) didn't catch them. There is NO RULE in what we have been given that says Thor should be before Archangel, and people playing by that rule only have themselves to blame.
Would it be nice if they had a pattern (like using release order?) that we could follow and predict who was next? Sure. But it's certainly not a mistake when they deviate from a pattern that they didn't come up with in the first place.1 -
It’s the same problem that keeps coming back up - any information we do happen to get out of the devs via our community manager is often inaccurate, incomplete, or ambiguous. The only information we got was 3 latest, 2 classic (which they’ve broken that order too already). Would it be so difficult to just lay out an actual featured list rather than the endless guessing? Given that they were able to put out 2+ weeks of pvp events before they went on holiday, it would be hard to believe they don’t have the events planned out a few weeks+ in advance.
Clear accurate communication, its not this hard.2 -
Look on the bright side: it means Archangel probably won't be a required character for the 4* release event coming after. Although he'll probably be for the event after that, but it'll be for the next 5* character.
