This is probably one of my most creative builds. I wanted to somehow use the aerial trait on swinging web kick to be able to pull it more frequently, so I started with the power of flight, than instead of leaning towards the aerial trait in general I decided to go towards the energy resource printed on the powers of flight. What I got was a defensive build using powers of flight with energy shields, sidesteps, and jump flips. Then I started to look for more energy resource cards in protection. Found my way to Noir, Silk, bait and switch, and return the favor. What started to form was a very treachery countering build coming along. Threw in spider tingle to use my allies and myself with warrior of the great web to counter possible treacheries. With it dealing damage not requiring "taking" damage, you can use the energy shield to discard cards as a cost instead of your life. I through in scarlet spider to siphon damage off of Noir, who can become your strongest thwarter, a big weakness of this deck early game. Play swinging web kick with a power of flight and deft focus felt good and was able to consistently use 2 in a turn. If playing this deck multiplayer, I feel like it would only do it justice to go to 2 players, preferably a justice player to help with threat removal. Don't neglect the return the favor + Enhanced spider sense combo, which deft focus can pay for. Return the favor only requires you to "reveal" it, so canceling its "when revealed" effect is fine. I wanted to put unflappable in here but I could not find out if jump flip and sidestep would trigger it.

This looks like an incredibly fun Spider-Man build! Unflappable would trigger with Side Step and Jump Flip. Both cards have the defense trait, making you the defender. If you take no damage after playing them, then that will trigger Unflappable.

I wonder if Ingenuity might be beneficial here, since it's so easy to play in alter-ego for him. Maybe a Enhanced Reflexes or 2 to help with your energy triggers?

So I had nerves of steel in this and I felt that I was swimming in more resources (energy as well) than I needed. I swapped it out , trimmed to have defensive energy instead. The cost curve is so low , and I have so many other cards I want for building out , enhanced reflexes and ingenuity would be highly unneeded. The whole premise of going the energy route is to give power of flight a secondary use. A solo thing though is to get noir and Scarlett out decently quick is good to help with thwarting.

@JacenSketch Ingenuity might be interesting, but this protection deck might need Spiderman to stay in hero form most of the time to make the most out of defense cards, so flipping down might not be worth it. Also I wonder if Nerves of Steel might be more consistent and last longer than Enhanced Reflexes? Although Enhanced Reflexes can be used for any card.

@Cameson like I mentioned in my previous comment, Nerves of steel was in it but it was counter intuitive. The lean towards the defense cards was because I wanted secondary uses for the power of flight, so it wasn't in here just for swinging web kick. When I had it I had no need for power of flight. I never had an issue triggering the energy kicker of cards, but I wanted more card draw so defensive energy went in to have as a caveat. Also nerves of steal is only for 2 cards where defensive energy can be used for them or wild for energy shield too.

@Wickedpedia Thank you, that makes a lot of sense!
