Carp me for the MtG references. I'll behave now.

I knew she was immune to something. Maybe they should rename Nets to
Webs in her honor?

"You can't do this to me! I sleazed you past the Sentry Guns!
Nooooooo!"

I just have this odd situation in mind where my "left-hand wingman" goes
on a run; as his heros are Booby Trapped and Barney Phyffed away, I send
in Widow and the Rapier folk, so eventually I'm the only one with

whatever they call those free-for-all wrestling matches.
