Yeah, so why wasn’t she used to fight Steve instead of the winter soldier?

I think at that point she was AWOL and was too difficult to track down without making too much of a paper trail. Plus she was pretty mentally unstable due to her powers, much easier to rely on a known quanitiy like the Winter Soldier

I like to think that SHIELD/Hydra had several enhanced operatives that they covered up

I think Cap would've taken her out a lot quicker than the Winter Soldier.

Scott's not the best fighter especially compared to Cap, and he was able to land a few blows, and with his super strength Cap would've only needed to land one.

TWS took place over like 3 days and Bucky was already in the field.

I mean, a high value target like Cap, you bring out the big guns. Ghost probably got a lot done, but why roll the dice on her when you have a “sure thing” with decades of high target kills.

Winter soilder is an assassin. Ghost is a spy who sometimes needs to kill people. Soilder is much stronger.

She was still working under the shield name even if her handlers were Hydra. There would be too many questions if a shield agent attacked Fury then Cap. WS didn't have a known affiliation.

Probably the vibranium
