I had a super fun team with her and now I can't remember what it was. I remember waiting for a cascade to go off for like 5 minutes though.
Jane + Onslought + Negasonic will do that. you can swap jane for other passive charge creators like Bolt or Storm.

I'm at the point where I target characters I perceive as "fun" over those who might help me terrorize others. I think Moon Girl/Devil Dino is a ton of fun in the right situation, so I prioritized them.
I love negasonic with Riri/mThor
How are people ascending 3s so fast?! I started with 3 or 4 copies of the old school 3s which gave me a head start when ascension started and I have only one 5 currently and that’s because I solely favorited IM40.
I heard that ascended dark beast is pretty good when boosted so I tried him out, and yeah. His match damage gets nuts once you collect some black ap.
Since both he and OR are boosted right now I breezed through PvE in about 10-15 minutes. I've also been crushing PvP using black ap boosts. Got upwards of 36k blue match damage. He really is a monster.

He's completely insane, I love him. Anybody with a match damage boost just goes crazy when ascended.

Negasonic, Throg, Gator Loki?
I had Dark Beast making like 200k match-3s in this PvP. If you boost going in, it's even crazier. His buff might have been one of the best in the game's history.
Yeah but only due to ascension, not for his 4* version. We're retconning that now, that they were already thinking about ascension, 18 months early?
His buff didn't touch his match damage boosting though. It changed his special tile mechanics and AP generation.
Didn't he used to create charged tiles? Which would have been great with his huge match damage.

Yes, in his strongest color blue. And they could be converted from any tile not just blue tiles.

His special tile mechanics and AP generation are all designed to feed him more black AP, to boost his match damage.

Sort of. They are designed to help feed him more AP but functionally they are useless. Unless you are pairing him with 4* Carnage you will not see a ton of extra AP gen. You need specials out in black to get extra black. Or you need protect tiles out and 9 green. You are better off sticking him with storm and chasing charged tiles. Right now I’m winning turn 4 or 5 with him. When he isn’t boosted it is slower but not much slower. edit* now that I think about it you can pair him with Storm and Gambit which should be an interesting team

Every time the enemy matches any friendly special tile, he makes 3 black protect tiles. Then you can match those for +3 black AP. Or, if the enemy matches them, he'll spam even more black protect tiles.
I saw a LOT of extra black AP, just from the enemy accidentally matching Omega Red's CD tiles or protects to kick it off.
I don’t know how much you use him. But he is a regular in my rotation. He was my main before I transitioned to 5* I get it, it could feed him quickly, but again functionally over a lot of matches you will run into issues. This OR Beast pair is great because they are both boosted and if you can’t grow Beast to 15+ ap you won’t notice it. I know he is a monster, but trust me his kit is a functional nerf.
If this was just a 1v1 game his kit would be a buff.

Oh absolutely not! I never said it was intended to be one of the best buffs in the game's history.
At the other end of the spectrum, I just ascended Mr Fantastic, I can drop his stats here if anyone cares.
Imaginaut, at 5 covers, will possibly generate a strike of strength 1113 at level 450. That power doesn't tell you what any of its random effects does quantifiably in or out of a match, so in case you were wondering, that's the size of one.
