I like the fact that she has stealth and gets L/C.

Also, she gets Avenger team in the Exp version and has the 2 arrows in the vet with an AV of 9.

She seems like a decent early move/bait piece or a late-game incapper that can support your other pieces in taking out the opposition.

Thoughts?

I like the V version but only for her double incapacitate, the other two pretty much suck IMHO. I've only used the V version in about 2 or 3 games but I've yet to be beaten with her on my team (although I can't remember the team she was with or who I was up against).

well, I for one have never built a team around Black Widow, but then again I don't see her as a figure you would do that with.

She is definitely a combat support figure, not too powerful on her own (and Incapacitate is extremely expensive on her because of the whole dial thing), but able to contribute. Idf I use her at all it is usually as filler.

I have a 500 point team with Black Widow on it. I'm not sure how effective it is, I have not played it very much yet, but anyway, here goes:

Black Widow (V)
White Queen (E)
Moondragon (U)
Wasp (U)
Prof. X (U)
Destiny (R)
Mandarin (V)

Obviously this team is all about MC and Incap. I use the other players "fighter" types and try to keep my guys out of combat. Hope this helps.

I absolutely agree that she is not someone to build a team around, but someone to include on a team.

Here are two teams I have her on:

400 Pt Avengers, No Medic

V She-Hulk (120)
E Hawkeye (43)
R Black Widow (30)
U Wasp (44)
E Iron Man (161)


Fem Fatale 300

R White Queen (61)
V She-Hulk (120)
R Black Widow (30)
R Invisible Girl (37)
R Yellowjacket (22)
R CT Elektra (18)
R Hydra Medic (12)

I'm not saying these are Tournament worthy teams, but my teams tend to be fun and themed rather than win at all cost.

somebody who fills the roll of the double incapacitater is daredevil (both V. Versions) The spidey team isgood, but the other one with L/C is better
