But the same can be said for Gwen and I don't see anyone ranking her very high. His yellow sounds cool, 8 ap for stun+dmg from iceman's blue springs to mind as particularly good on my roster. But I don't totally like that I have to get hit by a power first.

It mentions you can select and overwrite enemy countdown tiles, but can you also select enemy attack, protect, and strike tiles? Also, I noticed above that someone was able to get team-up tiles to become countdown tiles. Was this done using the purple power or can this happen using his passive yellow power too?

It was much more reliable and powerful than the most reliable there is. Charlie's angels requires: -An underlevelled Prof X -11 starting purple (but more strongly suggested) - At least two sets of at least two green tiles close by and with not TU or special tiles in between per go. - Cascades or full row/column destruction giving a minimum of 3 additional purple AP per go. All while using 3*-level damage and HP. With pre-nerf Star-Lord: -You could use a fully levelled Prof X -Didn't really need to bring Scarlet Witch. -Only needed 10 starting purple, but most times, only 8 due to his passive, which also gives you 3 free purple Ap from time to time. -Only needed one set of two nearby purple tiles per go and you don't have to mind TU or special tiles. -If the yellow tile was out, you actually /gained/ 1 purple AP per go. Without it, you only needed 1 additional purple to keep going. -4*-level damage and HP.

One consideration that you have overlooked pylgrim: switch and gsbw both have lots of tile destruction to keep churning the board and renove special tiles. Starlord and prof x have no other powers to do that. Overall, i agree that starlord/x was probably a bit more reliable than traditional winfinite (starlord's extra health is a big bonus). But i dont know that the gap was quite as big as you suggest.
