Invisible Woman


Stats(6436): IW's stats are okay. No sevens really hurts, but the dual sixes make up a little. If she were 17 or 18 points instead of 19, that would make a huge difference as well. Her Malice hero(7642) has better stats but not the great IA.

Inherent Ability(Team is +2 to Venture): One of the best IA's in the game. Since IW is mainly on defensive teams, she can block almost anything and still come out 2 points ahead on the venture.

Specials:
* BUBBLE SHIELD (BH) {U} [OPD] Team gains +2 to defense for remainder of battle
I don't particularly like this special, especially if I am playing an experienced player. The card counts nothing towards venture and costs me a card advantage. A good player will start with low attacks and build up to make you use low cards for defense. If it is placed and played in the next few battles, then it is ok, but I like to place her avoid. I don't use it.
* FORCE FIELD (AG) {U} Avoid 1 attack
Straight avoids are great. Put one in.
* INVISIBILITY (AM) {U} Invisible Woman gains +2 to defense for remainder of battle
If I don't use Bubble Shield, I won't use this.
* INVISIBLE RAM (AS) {R} [OPD] Acts as a level 9 Strength attack
A level 9 in an off power, use it or don't play the game.
* INVISIBLE SABOTEUR (CO) {U} Opponent may not play any Universe cards from his hand this battle.
The chances of this hurting you in card advantage is greater than it helping you. Don't use it.
* PROTECTIVE WALL (AD) {U} Invisible Woman or teammate may avoid 1 attack of 9 or less.
One of the three best cards in the game. It protects everyone. Use three.
* TEAM COORDINATION (FE) {U} Acts as a level 3 Intellect attack. Each Front Line teammate may make 1 additional attack.
I like this card. The attack is ok, but the bonus is enough to put one of these in your deck. A nice hit-and-run card.
* UNSEEN ASSAILANT (AB) {U} Acts as a level 4 Fighting attack, may make 1 additional Fighting attack
I only use this card if I need an extra card to make 56 in my deck.
Overall: Invisible Woman is a nice defensive teammate, but not someone to build a deck around. I had her in a tournament team with Spawn that took 2nd place in Kansas. Her lack of offense hurts the deck, but maybe she'll get a good attack if The Marvels ever comes out.
