You might think that you get more out of boosting Punisher's 3 100 damage strike tiles as opposed to 1 300 damage strike tile, but doing the math shows that you actually net the same amount of power in both cases: For Punisher, 3 * (100*.1.3) = 390 damage after a yellow match, and for 1 tile, 300 * 1.3 = 390 damage after a single match. Therefore, it's better to match Falcon up with powerful single tile character such as Psylocke since Falcon can then boost more quality tiles. This of course assumes a 1-1 power ratio: Psylocke's red only adds a single 200 damage strike tile, so Falcon's yellow would only boost that by 60 as opposed to Punisher's 90 from a single judgement, but if you get 2 Psylocke reds off and then match with Falcon, then it becomes significantly better. There's also the argument of spread out tiles being better than single tiles since its more likely that some of them will survive, but meh. My dream team with this character is now LazyThor/Psylocke/Falcon instead of LazyThor/LazyDaken/Falcon due to the quality over quantity argument.

Exept patches is the best seeing at 3G you get 3 148 strike tile for a total of 577

If it creates 14 50 prot tiles at max level, that means that 3 of those tiles surviving is enough to completely blank 141 match damage. It's going to be a nightmare for your opponents to actually remove all those tiles, so the match is just going to drag on and on... I think the right build is 5/4/4. You obviously want to max yellow, and blue can be kept at 4 since lowering the cd doesn't matter as much.
