Deck Overview

I'm kicking of my Con of Heroes 2026 deck series with one of my favorites to play with. Natasha really sings in Aggression with some of the newer cards that have been released, and this might be my favorite way to play her now.

This is a deck meant to use the villains attacks against them with Toe to Toe and Attacrobatics, and engage minions to trigger preparations to advance the game state, like Lie in Wait and Aggressive Stance. Add in Firepower and you have a deck that feels really interesting and strong at all player counts!

Deck Description

This deck leans into being aggressive and spreading damage out to her enemies consistently.

First, the preparations:

  • Lie in Wait is very underrated, allowing Black Widow to deal 3 damage when a minion comes into play, plus an additional damage from her Widowmaker hero ability.
  • Aggressive Stance allows you to get an attack event from your deck when you engage a minion, which we can do plenty thanks to Angela and Spoiling for a Fight.

Next, the events:

We also brought friends:

When you flip down, Safe House #29 gets you preparations back to hand.

Target Spotter is also really important since Lie in Wait and Aggressive Stance only work when you engage a minion; pulling them to you is valuable. It also helps to neuter Quickstrike on minions for Widow's Bite.

I haven't really played Black Widow much in Aggression, looks fun!

@Castlefrank47 I think it's my favorite aspect for her these days. So much fun stuff!

What do you think about throwing Bambino into this deck?

"Hey there big guy, sun's getting real low." Wink and a nod, I really enjoy the inclusion of the Hulk ally.

@jbbridgers You totally could, but it's more expensive and I'm only using the weapons for Firepower anyway, so I went with the cheaper ones to attach to BW.

@eroush Glad someone caught that!

Have you tried Caught in the Crossfire with her? Been wanting to make use of that card and thought of Natasha cause one Dance of Dead is 3 damage on a caught minion.

Firepower is such a good card! No room for Practiced Plan? Also Agent 13 is really nice in Black Widow, since she can ready the Safe House #29 to bring back two preparations, when you are in alter-ego. :)

@Pedroq that’s a good shout!

@Thanee there’s not enough space for all the cards you want in a deck these days sadly!

Yeah, I totally know what you mean. :)

It pains me to see target spotter and Angela and spoiling for a fight without "Bring It!", but I think that might be game greed talking.

Played this today and had a blast. Black Widow is already a top five hero for me and this deck lets her pump out some serious damage.

Apr 02, 2026 boomguy · 14516

@Footballcoach Gamer Greed is a serious condition that affects millions of card players

@Grawlix_Ipsum awesome! It’s my fave aspect for her these days.

I love Toe to Toe for the villain here. I've only ever used it for minions but Black Widow absolutely negates villain attacks. Great call!

Awesome deck as always! Seeing all the CoH decks is a little intimidating. Going to my first CoH this year, and I'm not that good at deckbuilding lol. My decks are usually kinda boring!

Apr 05, 2026 Footballcoach · 1678

@Kole101 so glad you're coming to the con! I understand being intimidated, but we're all on a journey with Marvel Champions (whether you've been playing days or months or years)! "Boring" decks are great! They show off what a hero can do, and they do exactly what you need them to consistently and reliably!

We're all here to have fun! As long as you're having fun, your deck is working as intended.

@SoloMarvelChampion thank you! It’s good tech for Natasha

@Kole101 don’t worry about it at all! Just bring what you enjoy and you’ll have a great time.

@Footballcoach and @boomguy, thanks!
