Wasp is a close quarters combat specialist, she plays melee combat like chess. Even risking injury to gain the victory in combat as long as the foe is defeated in the end. Elites in her eyes are easier as they are predictable and grapple moves are what throw them off.
But very few humans are able to “Hold” an elite. Brute force (striking) can work but if you were to punch an elite into the face its definitely not going to affect them.
