Zitz! Rash! Pimple!

Slower and more stupid than Wolverine have avoided the webbing, and the classic "it only takes one" argument for Wolverine is a persistent one.Depending on what you think the outcome of a web barrage would be, you might be right. It's not a tactic Pete uses early and/or often though, and we do consider CIS. And if it fails, such outbursts usually leave him at the end of a cartridge that he'd likely never have time to replace.
Because we can talk about mythical "Prime" versions of either one (I know you'll know what I mean by Prime, you've been here long enough), but at the end of the day, Pete does tend to get hit more by skilled opponents than his power set suggests he should. Even with SS. His stats save him in other "vs. MAer" fights, but not here (mind you, a small majority still).
Well I guess it goes both ways, it's definitely caught smarter, faster, and deadlier opponents. In a fight where they're at their max, Wolverine can't cut through all of it, it has to harden first and his arms have to be in the position to do so. Spider-Man has two arms that can shoot a wide area, so if Spider-Man were knowingly against such odds he could do that.
The problem with the "It only takes one" is that Spider-Man has never been hit in a serious match by the claws, but he has webbed Wolverine. And Spider-Man also faces faster and deadly enemies who can kill him in one hit, like Carnage for example, and with no SS. Not to mention Spider-Man relies on his webbing more than Wolverine relies on his "skill" (because he usually doesn't need to).
Lol, the prime versions. I suppose he gets hit against popular characters with the need to make it a match, but he has had good showings against them, I'd mark some down as PIS (like Cap for example). I think there's a difference between a comic match where the characters have a book to sell and they are messing around, and a KMC match where Spider-Man is a good deal faster than peak humans like Batman and such.
There's also the "skilled" argument. Spider-Man has had decades of experience, and skill is more than formal MA training. Spider-Man is adept at things that other characters are not and is more unorthodox. I think Wolverine can win of course, but the environment would have to favor him. Spider-Man's speed, maneuverability and options make him take the fight where he wants to go. I understand your assessment though, but I think Spider-Man in a "Mary Jane just got killed scenario (like in the what if) would win a majority.
Just me though, sorry about the long post.
