To normal humans sure... Unfortunately, Black Widow is most certainly not normal.

Perhaps. She may be trained, heck I'd say she likely is. However, there is no reason to assume she is as well trained as BW.

BTW, black widow has faced no creature as powerful as the elf. Her strongest foe so far has been hawkeye without his arrows.
And Arwen has never faced anyone in combat.
BW is the epitome of a human in terms of ability, but is still a human ~ and therefore physically inferior to Arwen.
Arwen doesn't have to be as well trained as BW to win, she has to have basic fighting skill. Arwen has magic and physical superiority on her side. Also, if Arwen can summon the power of her people against the Nazgul, then why can't she do the same versus BW.
I understand Arwen doesn't have combat feats, but that's not my point. Your main argument has to do with black widows skill, I am attacking that argument by mentioning she hasn't fought anyone as physically capable as an elf.

LotR isn't like Eragon. Just because elves are generally better doesn't mean they always are. Guys like Aragorn and Boromir are certainly superior combatants than your average elf.

Because she doesn't have that specific river here. Plus it takes several seconds to use said ability.

I'd say Hawkeye is and the Chitauri are. Regardless, that's all more or less irrelevant because she has shown her extreme level of skill.
Aragorn and Boromir can be more skilled than the average elf, but definitely not physically superior. This is simply a biological thing, humans are not biologically capable of physiological superiority over elves. BTW, Arwen is not your average elf.
I think it's a safe assumption that she has many other applications of her magic. Magic WILL definitely help her if she's fighting black widow.
BW is skilled, but not enough to overcome her physiological deficiencies in relevance to Arwen

Where is this stated?

Where has she demonstrated any magic that will be helpful in a fight?

What "physiological deficiencies" are you taking about and where can I see them?
I'm done indulging you; it's time to prove your claims.

Because magic is an ability not a tangible weapon. Magic is a natural ability for Arwen, just like punching and kicking are for BW
You're aware that HTH stands for hand to hand, correct?
Not that it really matters, as the OP didn't state this was HTH only, which means that BW has her guns.

So does h2h also mean that neither characters can use there feet?
h2h means that both characters can only use natural abilities, therefore BW can't use her guns.

You cannot properly define "standard equipment" without OP specifications. BW has used many different weapons.
^Therefore, it is automatically assumed that neither character has any equipment. Which forces this to be hth

Where is it stated in the movies then?
But heck, it's not even true in the books. Certain men like Turin are described as being stronger and as agile as any elf.
Originally posted by Firefly218
When has BW demonstrated feats against someone stronger, faster, more agile and more durable then her?
When has Arwen demonstrated feats at all?

I'm still waiting for proof for your claims.

Hand-to-hand is a specific term, Hand-to-hand combat (sometimes abbreviated as HTH or H2H) is a lethal or nonlethal physical confrontation between two or more persons at very short range (grappling distance) that does not involve the use of firearms or other distance weapons
