Smash back black widow cheating

I've noticed while playing this if the enemy uses obw blue it not only increases my tile number count but also heals the enemy team at the same time. Wth. This is not acceptable and I've lost a battle and lives be of this.

    That is her 5 blueflag.png cover ability.

    At level 5, Anti-Gravity Device both heals and increases enemy countdown tile timers.
  • Wow thanks I was unaware she could do this. Is this new?
  • I've had her 5/4/4 since forever.

    I've been playing over a year and it's always been this way.

    It's not new. And I think the consensus would be that you've chosen the worst possible build for her. OBW is a powerhouse when boosted. I've had to remind myself to stop thinking "2* team, easy win" when she's on board.

    Agreed, 3/5/5 makes her vicious. The steal is cheaper, the final black makes all her matches extra damage , especially with strike tiles, and the 5th blue , well that has been "covered" already icon_e_biggrin.gif
  • Thanks, guess I need to pay closer attention.

    It's already been said, but to add to the chorus, 3/5/5. I built her improperly at first (the exact way you have her) because it seemed the most obvious choice. I eventually caved and rebuilt her, and trust me, you'll notice the difference... boy, will you notice. icon_e_wink.gif

    Since OBW is buffed this week, I try to leave her on defense for pvp events. If you're fortunate, the AI will constantly feed her colors to heal or steal. She can singlehandedly get a defensive win for you.

    I thought OP was being sarcastic. I had a good laugh at it.

    There are people who are unaware of the days of prologue healing? icon_eek.gif

    Wow, the day they took that away from us made for some explosive forum threads.

    LMFAO! I am sure there are lots of people who don't have a clue about prologue... I mean "Story" healing. Or that OBW and Spidey used to "True Heal". God I miss those days when you could play for hours and hours without touching a health pack. icon_cry.gif

    In the recent PVE I had her teamed up with boosted Patch. After Berserker Rage, OBW matching 3 Blue, Purple or Black would cause thousands of damage. And if I lucked into a cascade, the super-buffed Venom, Juggs, Sentry etc would drop in one round. 5 blackflag.png is a thing of beauty.

    EDIT: That is until dicknose does a Headbutt and one shots OBW before you can even get a whiff of Green for Berserker Rage...
