Choosing Archfey was a weird choice, but I could say that about spore druid and maybe champion. Almost feels like they just picked some of the most unpopular subclasses to try and buff them for fun or see if they could make them more interesting. The Fathomless would have been cool with a few minor tweaks to the flavor and a ton of people would have hard ons for Celestial, Undead, and Genie.
It's all good though. I might pick archfey just to challenge myself and see what they've done with it. Picking fiend just feels too generic.
Well they promised all of the PHB choices would be in game, so the Archfey and Champion were basically guaranteed.
