What you are playing against

Peni builds a fort. Bionic Spider-Nest spawns Spider-Drones and lays Cyber-Webs; inside a web, Peni and her allies get healing over time and a movement boost. Arachno-Mines hide inside webs. Cyber-Web Snare Immobilizes enemies, Cyber-Bond is her grapple, and Spider-Sweeper, her ult, launches enemies while laying mines, drones and webs.

Season 10 (Sep 8, 2026) sped up Cyber-Web Cluster and removed the self-slow while firing it. She went from annoying to the best tank in the game.

Picks that work

Punisher wins the 1v1 (+12.5): the turret out-damages her sustain.

Rocket, Mantis, Invisible Woman and Jubilee fill out her top five. Long fights at a distance favor sustain over her area control.

Her favorite targets are divers: Black Panther (+15.3), Daredevil, Gorr, Magik and Mister Fantastic. Diving into the nest is the matchup she wants.

Habits that beat her

Shoot the nest. It keeps spawning drones and webs, and the webs heal her team.

Never fight on her webs. Pull the fight to open ground.

Count mines before you walk into a doorway she has held for a while.
