Rationale
A 2cmc 2/2 flying legendary with a potent static ability: all opponent artifacts and creatures enter tapped. This is a powerful stax-prison piece on an evasive body — it blanks haste creatures, slows aggro boards, and nullifies ETB-attacking threats. Signature in stax-prison and hatebears shells at low brackets; in Brawl the 1v1 dynamic makes the tapping effect more immediate and impactful, pushing it to tier-1 there. Removal magnet since it's must-answer for any creature-heavy or artifact-based deck.
Learnings (3)
Venom Blast's tap effect applies to artifacts too, not just creatures — this makes Spider-Woman particularly strong against artifact-combo decks where tapped mana rocks or ETB artifacts matter (e.g., Dockside Extortionist entering tapped is not a free mana trigger).

Because the static ability causes opponents' permanents to enter tapped, it does NOT interact with summoning sickness — creatures still can't attack that first turn regardless, but the tapped entry also prevents any 'enters tapped' replacement effects from being negated (e.g., Restoration Angel targeting an opponent's creature can't dodge this).

In 1v1 Brawl, this card functions as a near-permanent soft lock against creature-heavy aggro commanders since every new creature the opponent deploys enters tapped, buying an extra full turn of safety per threat.
