Wolverine has blocked bullets with his claws, Daredevil has blocked bullets with his billy clubs, Iron Fist has caught a bullet, all of them 'bullet time' with ease, none of them would be considered to be inherently above 'spidey' level.
Well, I don't really know the character very well, so I'd probably say she should just fall under the catch-all 'no-loophole' rule.
If someone tries to get in an obscure character by downplaying their feats during the draft, and then posting things that their opponent believes is over the limit..
Voila, instant disqualification.

Spider-Man himself is not the limit, the characters simply have to be in his class. If a character happens to be faster than Spiderman but falls short in other departments, or has more firepower but less speed and agility, they'll be accepted. The characters should be in his tier, not exactly less powerful.

In that case then all good. 😮💨
But about judging... 😈
I think Soljer will agree I can be fair...I think. Not sure what he thinks TBH.
As for the tourney, here are a few more stipulations:
-No time manipulation powers or tech.
-Each team member (poster) will represent one character in the battle and will not be able to post arguments for the others. The exception to this rule is teams with only 2 posters. On these teams each team member will be able to post arguments regarding the character they represent as well as the 3rd character (you'll need to coordinate your arguments so that your attacks do not conflict).
-As usual, no one shot kill abilities (if there are any at this level).
-Vehicles will be allowed based on availability at chosen prep host's base of operations. For example, if you chose The Batcave as your prep area you'd be able to use either the Batmobile, Batwing, etc. Each team is limited to 1 vehicle per round.
-No mind control.
-No access to battlefield prior to the beginning of combat.
-Teams will begin combat .5 kilometers away from each others' position.

Interesting...What does everyone think of the suggestion?
Also, if we're going to make it amalgams, I think I'd open it up to 6 characters (2 characters per round of the draft), and that the amalgamations could be any combination of 2 or 3 characters on the team, but you would have to field at least three characters in the battle.
How does that sound? Too complex?
A clarification on the vehicle rule:
You can only utilize a "mid-size" vehicle that can carry 2-6 occupants. No mobile bases. So, for example, if you drafted Nick Fury, no, you can't bring the Helicarrier with you into battle. However, if you drafted an Avenger you could use a Quinjet or if you drafted an X-Man you could use the Blackbird.
Take into consideration that whatever prep area you utilize in a previous round will not be available to you in any subsequent rounds so utilize these options wisely. If you use the Batcave (and all vehicles and tech there within) in round 1 you won't be able to use it again in the tournament.

also vehicles pritty makes the characters useless.
I've taken that into consideration, which is why I made the stipulation.
Batman does not equate to an auto win, you simply need to be creative.
Also, you only get to use any given prep area once.
