Failing that, someone who inflicts long-lasting bleed damage can be helpful, like X-23
Having said that, the Invisible Woman fight was designed to be theoretically fought with any champ. The key is to understand the mechanics of invisibility. The first thing to know is that you can't hit her when she's invisible, you'll miss (like with Hood's invisibility) and when you miss IW can counter you and combo you to death.
The second thing to know is how invisibility wears off. It wears off in two seconds if she's bleeding, or if you miss an attack. Since missing means she can counter you, the best way to deliberately miss so her invisibility wears off is to either bait a special and swing once at her like you're trying to punish the special (since she can't counter immediately after using a special) or Parry her and swing once at her since she can't counter you if she's stunned from the Parry.
Either way, miss once, then back away. Two seconds later, invisibility wears off and she becomes a normal fight. Force field will lower your damage until you bring it down, so you should try to deal as much damage as possible when you can (also: SP3 attacks bypass force field).
The third thing to know is when she becomes invisible. She starts off invisible at the start of the fight, and this first phase of invisible wears off in two seconds: you do not need to bleed her or miss her. After that, she goes invisible if you bring down her force field, if she evades an attack, or sometimes (50%) if you block (instead of evading) her SP2 or knock her down. Invisibility has a cooldown when it expires so if it is in cooldown nothing can trigger it again until cooldown wears off. Once cooldown ends, you need to start paying attention again to what can trigger invisibility.
Last important thing: IW will debuff you with exhaustion debuffs if you hit into her force field which reduce power gain and critical damage. This means in the Boss Rush fight if you spam attacks and give her power, the Power Struggle node won't give you as much or any power unless you let those debuffs expire before pushing her to one bar of power.
So the basic strategy is: wait out her initial invisibility at the start of the fight. Then attack into her to bring down her force field. Watch the force field icon, when it goes orange and then red it is getting close, be more cautious when attacking because when you pop the force field she'll go invisible. When she does, Parry and miss once, then back away. When force field expires, rinse and repeat. Make sure to bait out her specials. If you can, avoid using specials unless her invisibility is in cooldown. Be aggressive enough that Life Transfer can keep healing you: don't let it degen you to death.
Best choice might be Sparky. You need to make sure you don't push her to SP3, but you do need to attack to get health back. If you can build poise with Sparky you get the best of both worlds: you hit hard enough to get a lot of life back from LT, but you don't have to hit often so you don't push her power up too fast.
Did you get past? Or do you want to come back with a different team? There's two weeks to do this, and it's virtually energy-free.
