Clunky combo: this Dr. Facilier with a dry Madam Mim, Rival of Merlin and a LeFou - Instigator, preferably with Shere Khan - Menacing Predator. Madam Mim lets you play LeFou for free and grants him Rush. LeFou challenges an opposing character with at least 2 Strength, readies Madam Mim, and would be banished but is returned to your hand due to Dr. Facilier so you can do it again. Shere Khan gains you 1 lore every time Lefou challenges a character. Without Shere Khan, the cycle could take out a lot of opposing characters. "Clunky combo" because it requires 4 cards and opposing characters with 2 Strength. The ideal character to challenge would have 2 Strength and Resist 2, as that means you can do it as many times you want.

Clarifications

Q. If I control Dr. Facilier - Agent Provocateur and one of my Floodborn characters who used their Shift ability to be played on top of another card is banished in a challenge, do all cards in the stack go back to my hand?
A. No. Because the stack of cards all go to your discard pile first and become separate cards, you could only return the top card of the stack to your hand.
