The survival waves are designed to be beatable by all-2* teams though. My best success has been with OBW (3/5/5), 2* Thor (3/5/5) and 2* Storm (3/4/5 at present). Spamming OBW's purple will deny the enemies AP and fuel yours, and her blue will both heal your characters and slow goon CD tiles. Thor's yellow fuels both his & Storm's green. Storm's blue and Thor's green are your kill buttons.

(Note: when you reach 30 green AP, fire Storm first, not Thor. Lightning Strike at 30 AP will destroy a lot of tiles, almost always generate some kind of cascade, leave you rolling in AP of all colors, and still leave you 18+ green AP with which to fire Thor if needed)

Wave 1: use abilities as needed to kill the goons and get to wave 2 losing as little health as possible while still having 6+ AP of every color; ideally 10+.

Wave 2: With 6-10 AP of every color you should wipe this wave out pretty handily. Don't overuse your abilities as you want to have 15+ AP in all colors by the end of the wave.

Wave 3: You're in pure AP-building mode now. Get to 30 in most colors, and end the wave on an ability, not a match, so that it's still your turn when wave 4 hits.

Wave 4: With 30 AP you should be able to nuke this wave into oblivion before they even move. 2x Storm blue (stun two separate targets!), Storm green, Thor green, Thor yellow, Thor green, Thor red as needed... nothing's gonna survive that and still be any threat.

Sometimes wave 1 just goes bad though. I had a Hitman take me out a couple days ago with sniper rifle shots that I couldn't match nor delay (he took down OBW and then I just retreated). On my second attempt I cruised through with a lucky cascade or two to build AP.
