    He didn’t arrive though. Not for the ddq flip or the PvE day change. He still cannot be favorited 6 weeks after release.

    New PvP season already started as well. He is behind with no word from the devs when we expect him to arrive.

    Only guesses from community members. So… it hasn’t been answered.

    Thank you. This is a joke we can't favorite him TWO MONTHS after he was released into the game. Do the devs never respond on their own forums? We're just guessing as community members as you said.

    Come on.
    He's been released at the end of October, not two months ago.
    Cut the hyperbole.

    Hmm. Still no Arcade. Chasm’s revive mechanic really is game-breaking.

    The answer was today. The exact timing is speculation and I’m guessing in an hour. The time Lightning Rounds begin and end every week (noon eastern time if you don’t like GMT).

    Ok I was wrong on the time. The day still isn’t over though. Well maybe in parts of Asia.

    I didn't know Arcade is so popular. :o

    And Dethlok also hasn't entered tokens, Holy moly 😒

    Whelp I guess we are past the point of mass hysteria now, looks like it's a pitchforkin' time! Grab your torches forumites!

    The dev forgot to insert coins. No coins, no tokens.

    There are forum rules against starting a riot. Can you incite a flash mob instead?

    I'm still waiting for 5* Riri to enter. Too soon? :-)

    Hmm. What if a large amount of us gather here and DON'T pull for Arcade even if we could? Then we disperse but mutter darkly?

    He's a cool character in the comics and his gameplay is fun. I love the comics and the comics characters in the game. I don't care if something is meta or not. I just like how they have him in the game. Fun for fun's sake.

    I’m not overly worried about arcade but I have champed chasm so I want to try at someone new

    He should have entered this morning on the "Data Push," that's when the tokens are updated, so I have no idea why he's not here yet. Maybe tomorrow? Broken Circle is definitely doing a somewhat different rhythm with the game, so it's not terribly surprising if they haven't ironed everything out yet.

    I'm sure it won't be too long, but I'm not pulling, myself. Too much She-Hulk.

    How about a Free Arcade cover for the inconvenience of having to hoard my legendary tokens 😁

    Broken Circle is doing a great job since they’ve taken over.

    Just waiting for an update on something that usually happens like clockwork.

    This. I find Arcade quite fun to play. In contrast, Chasm is an absolute chore both to use and to face. Can't wait for him to be condemned to the abyss of Classics.

    I totally understand him being a chore to face, but to use? He's pretty straightforward and can make very difficult matches (like the FU node in SCL10 PVE) quite easy. If he's not your cup of tea, I definitely understand. But he is far from a chore to use, at least from my standpoint.

    This is going to be a perpetual problem; they delayed rotation before the Anniversary season, so as it stands we're going to have the newest 5* spend an entire season and a half waiting to enter tokens.

    That will have to change at some point, but that will mean giving one 5* the shaft or diluting the pool for a few weeks.

    I agree with this; I've been using him against the Mindless Ones, to prevent their special tile proccing that takes several decades. Still, he drains your own AP, his abyss tiles don't gain AP, and he self-damages. I know that the latter is offset by his own revival, but still. I have to keep an eye on his health, and go after web tiles to get some health back. The constant see-sawing is tiresome.
