Question on Prof X's tile buff versus Falcons

Why does Falcon buff tiles the moment the match is made and Prof X waits until the round is over? If you match yellow then strike tiles and attack tiles do more damage that round, but Prof X lets the damage happen first then buffs yhose tiles. I didn't see anything in the power that seems different. What did i miss?

    Falcon can fly around, so he gets there first. Poor Charles is stuck in that bulky wheelchair (they could have given him that cool yellow hoverchair like in the Animated Series), so he takes much longer to get around to each of those tiles.

    Also, who is better at buffing tiles between all three? Prof, FalCap or regular Falcon?

    ProfX - Highest numbers, hardest to pull off
    Falcon - Probably best all around
    Cap - If you have a CD

    Excuse me? Prof X is clearly the best at boosting tiles if you build him for that (X/5/X) and he's leveled high enough. At max level, he boosts 4 tiles by 238 which becomes ridiculous after a few boosts. 7 in purple is easy enough to get and if he's leveled, he will boost on blue (always), TU, purple (most of the time). You end up doing 4000 dmg every match + the attack tiles adds even more.

    Falcon and Failcap are limited to 1 color and the boost is quite bad in comparion (3 tiles +94, 2 tiles +129).
