About Wasp:
Empowered with a new cutting-edge Wasp suit, Hope van Dyne is ready to make up for lost time as a Super Hero. Like Ant-Man, she can reduce herself to the size of an insect while disproportionately increasing her strength and durability. Couple this with the ability to fly at impressive speeds and evade enemy attacks and you have one deadly Wasp.

Strengths
Mordo, M.O.D.O.K., Medusa

• Modok and Medusa’s Auto-Block abilities will not trigger if their Ability Accuracy is reduced by 100%.
** Developer Note: Bring Yellowjacket and Wasp in your AW attack team and you will be able to deal with some of the most effective AW Defenders in the game. Wasp has the damage potential and yellowjacket will provide the utility.

Karnak
• Karnak and Killmonger’s True Strike ability will prevent Wasp’s Counter Attack from happening, add Class Advantage to the mix and they are Wasp’s most effective counters.
