I'm sure there are better teams, but I'm having a lot of fun using:
icon_mrfantastic.png | icon_thing.png | wasp_icon.png
Wasp converts protect into strike tiles and then buzzes around until every one is downed. If the AI matches away anything, boy, do they get punished. Anyway, I'm having fun with it.

What other teams should I try?

    3Blade, 3Falcon, and Beast.

    I've been exploiting that bug a lot with this team. Blade gets his own strikes out, Beast's (cheap) blue is a countdown and spits out more, and Falcon buffs them all. Then fire Blade's green which is a 1-turn perpetual countdown. Works with 4Falcon too.

    Antman, Medusa, Starlord.

    If you can collect 9 yellow quickly the strikes Antman generates + the countdowns ending get super obnoxious really quick.

    You can also use Ant-man yellow & blue to create countdowns along with Medusa's reoccuring countdown to power Starlord red. Just used it unboosted in Shield Sim and Oldest Trick in the Book was easily getting 10k+ even before strikes get out from Ant-Man yellow.

    If the other team has someone generating any specials Medusa's purple immediately makes things impossible for the other team.

    Count down tiles do 1 damage each time they count down, pair that with a strike tile and they can start doing serious damage when they are meant to do 0

    4Carol, Wasp, Peggy. Get 5 yellow and 6 blue and watch as you do progressively more and more damage every turn.

    I really am going to miss this bug when it's gone. Can't say that I let it do much against me, I mostly used it to my benefit.

    Throughout the entirety of the pves since the bug I think I have not changed my im40, patch, peggy team. Peggy's blue cds were top notch on their own. Pair them with patch's strikes, you cannot lose.

    I even run this team in sim and had no issues going up against enemies with 30k+ life points.

    Also fun, that behemoth burrito team. Falcon, wasp and bullseye at 535.

    Yes this is the team I've been Lol'ing with as well. 
    Do not make the mistake of waiting for C4rol to make her strikes, just play Wasp yellow immediately, then go for blue for wasps cd, then eventually black for carol. It's disgustingly amazing.

    Wasp/Falcon/3*Pun

    slowest power is falcon's purple at 9. This team is so fast and can strike from so many ways. 

    Starlord/C4rol/Hawkguy

    especially made for pve. 12 blue for Hawk and 3 for Carol while Starlord has an Everybody With Me on the screen. Shoot 4 arrows and activate Carols yellow on the 4th (the one with the strike tiles). You've got at least 4 CDs on the field now, waiting to fire on the next two turns and buff the strikes and damage because of C4rols passive

    In 3* land I've been using Bullseye/IM40/Lazy Cap

    Once Bullseye kills someone and gets his hoard of strikes out then IM40 Recharge and Lazy Cap's count downs just wreck the enemy team while generating more AP for more count downs!

    Takes a bit longer than the 4* teams above so it's more for PvE than PvP but you can easily do 1000+ damage when a CD expires.

    Nova and Star-Lord say "hi" as well. With Nova boosted right now, they absolutely WRECK goons. Go ahead, fire a power and get Nova's cheap strike tiles out quicker and oh there is a countdown tile that will hurt you even more.

    Coulson / Wasp / C4rol

    just grab enough blue to get the Wasp going, use her yellow and let the AP and insane strike tiles flow, while also giving your team the ability to swap to insane defense tile if the enemy has some heavy hits coming to you. Also, you get a decent stun of Wasp.

    Yellow feeds Wasp's power;
    Use Coulson's purple for board control;
    Keep blue intact to keep feeding Wasp's passive;
    Start Carol's black whenever possible or use it for Wasp to get the 3-turn stun;

    Sure, green and red don't matter much and it's not a perfect rainbow, but it's a decimating team even when they're not boosted. My current PVE go-to team.

    Being in 3* land right now, I've been having fun with Strange (buffed)/IM40/Blade for most PvE nodes with at least one goon.  IM40 to boost Strange's blue for some double-stuns just to buy time for Blade to ramp up.

    I've been testing out Wasp, Medusa, and Bl4de in the Hunt, particularly against 2* Daken and Bullseye.

    Blade creates strike tiles, Medusa steals and buffs enemy tiles, and Wasp creates/flips and buffs tiles even more.
    Then you have 4 potential ways to deliver passive damage: Blade's red, Medusa's CD, Medusa's attack tiles, and Wasp's bugged 1-turn CDs.

    I wouldn't say it is the most reliable team, but it is pretty fun. With a good board, it was very possible to deliver more than 10K of damage each turn without firing a power.

    Well it needs to be said, one of my favorite characters in the game has become an unbelievable force with C4rol during the CD bug.
    After many plays - and numerous defensive wins in Shield Sim - you have to try her with.....

    Ant-Man

    Yep. He makes C4rol and absolutely-anyone-else an amazing team.
    Use his yellow at 5 covers, protect those CD's like your children, and each strike gets buffed as each CD resolves. Heck, even add 1 yellow AP boost so you only need to make 2 matches before firing it.

    The fight is usually over before you can fire a power from your 3rd teammate.
    It's hilarious and sick-broken.
    Don't tell anyone.

    Want even more fun from Ant-Man? Run him with Star-Lord as the third character and now his yellow costs 2 less and his CDs power Star-Lord's Red. Good times.

    I've certainly tried Star-Lord with Carol & Ant-Man.

    The only problem is, SL requires that the enemy fire a power to get started. The match may honestly not last that long!!
