You lose out on 1549 damage from a blue process. But a yellow process plus one purple falcon buff give an extra 320 strike tile. It only takes 5 uses of that strike tile to make up the damage lost from blue. And that's only from one yellow process. Two yellow processes with no buff adds 164 in strike tiles. That only needs 9.5 uses to make up the damage. If you're going to go for tiles + buff, you might as well go all the way.

I was totally leaning towards a 4/5/4 build but this is actually a convincing argument. I might prefer 3/5/5 now lol

I got down to just him left to kill, I had 3 characters all with over 5000 health left and yet everytime I cleared his blind spot tile he just placed another one. Half an hour later I died because there was no physical way of removing that tile without him instantly placing another!

Phantron wrote: There's no easy way to deal with Invisibility if you're not running Captain America, which is why you probably should always have Captain America when facing Professor X in PvE at least. I've gone through games where it took 3 X Forces to finally dig out his Invisibility and that's about as strong a board shaking move as you can get. You also want to bring someone who has a decent purple active so that you're not just skipping your turn when you match purple to prevent him from getting the AP for Invisibility. Well, Invisible Woman can lock the Invisibility tile for 7 blue AP and that's a pretty cheap solution, but she's not the easiest character to use or have covers for.
