Post by: Master KChief on March 12, 2011, 11:12:29 PM: widow goes into quite a bit more than just abomb. she fits great in speed (especially multi with gifts) and tgt (primarily for mtm).

What if he is captured or removed from the game or blocked with KoT? Almost any deck can do at least one of those things pretty easily. In my experience, Widow is better. Not only can she really decimate your opponent and speed up your deck, but she is always a sure thing. No "after battle" or "if discarded" or any other limits on her, and CBN to top it off.

Post by: RTSmaniac on March 13, 2011, 09:07:23 PM: Lazzy is good. I mean The Long Day in a hero with recursion? but Im going with Widow because I like making my opponent discard cards.
