Team 3 gets busted in the first few seconds of combat. My pick for the winning team is Team 2. Norrin can beat Superman if he uses all of his powers, and if the Hulk gets into a brawl with Orion I see the Dog of War losing once the Hulk really begins to pour it on. But, if Orion goes for the uncharacteristic BFR on the Hulk Team 2 will stomp.
Team 3 don't have the durability of the other teams. Team 1 wins in a forum fight. Better maneuverability, good versatility, and just as durable as team 2.
Superman is as powerful as his preboot self, so he's easily up there with Surfer and Hulk. Orion, we haven't seen a whole lot of, but if he's as good as he seems, he should be able to hold his own quite well.
His feats put him on the same level power wise. He's just lacking experience, but he's getting it faster because he's regularly fighting a more powerful class of villain than he did before.
Since when has Orion been said to tap into an infinite well of power?
Hulk actually has consistently been stated to have access to it and has been shown to pour out as much energy as he likes (if Banner deems it safe to unleash).
Surfer is far more versatile than Team 1. It's nonsense to suggest otherwise. Anything - literally - that Team 1 can do, Surfer can either replicate or substitute a Power Cosmic version of.
Da fuq? U make it seem like the astro force is a lantern ring and will run out of juice all of a sudden. believe me when I say it is infinite.
And how does having infinite reservoir of energy help you in a forum fight? No one is likely to run out of juice before a team loses. It's ludicrous to think otherwise.
No one is disputing Norrin's versatility. But as a team, Surf does not make up for Hulk's lack of versatility in a battle. No way....
Supes is not some flying brick with lazers coming out of his eyes. In fact on average, he makes use of his powerset more often than most versatile heralds do (ie Thor). In the case of Orion, his harness is so chock full of tricks it's retarded.
