Green Lanterns, for shiz.
The most powerful weapon of The Wave was the Harvester, arguably, or the Galacta-canon perhaps, each 'planetary destructive' forces.
The Oans have 7200 Green Lanterns. Now the elite of them are elite heralds. Maybe the Seekers are a match for an average Green Lantern, but there are many more GLs than Seekers, and the Harvester and the Galacti-Canon are hardly high end compared to a dozen Oans, the Great Green Globs, and the potential to channel direction from the Central Power Battery.
But really it comes down to the fact that, despite the Wave's superior numbers, the 'fodder' of the Corps is just way more powerful than the fodder of the Wave.

A question for you guys. Are there any feats for Mogo? I know he's always talked about as a game changer, but I haven't really seen him do anything. He's big, that's for sure, but by that measure, Kilowog is more powerful than Hal....
the way he took out the BL was pretty badass. But he got killed with a sniper bullet.... (me thinks his durability is shit)

Until recently, no, not really.
REcently he took out a huge cache of black lantern GL's by absorbing them into himself. It gets revealed that he's legit more powerful and special in the GL Corps.
Which, I may add, goes against the entire point of the Alan Moore story that introduced him. Which is why I hate Geoff JOhns.
Mmm, yes, I saw what he did with the BLs...tbh, I just saw that as the fact that he's a sentient planet, rather than a powerful GL.
I mean, a GL ring already does whatever the user wants, so the only measure of how much more powerful a user is, is their willpower and creativity.
So I guess my question would be, is Mogo more strong-willed/creative than other GLs?

He's got more energy than normal GL's. He doesn't just have a GL ring, but he's got a special backup cache of energy, said to be the most outside the CPB.Again, that goes against the entire point. But whatever.
Ahhh ok, thanks. I only remembered him from the old stories, where he was just a planet (and not the moral compass or whatever of the Corps...)
He really just had the one significant appearance in Alan Moore's short story, and yes, the whole point of those stories was to show the absurd diversity of the Corps. That even the strangest, most incredible thing you could imagine was commonplace there; Mogo was a Green Lantern, and not even the biggest Green Lantern, alongside sentient mathematical progressions and herpes viruses, beings who had no concept of color or sight, etc.
A-wave included the "Centurions" a 100 man group under Annihilus which was stated to have more power than all the heroes on earth 616.
A-Wave also included the mind-controlled Terrax and paibok as well as the infant terrible, who is a huge factor IMO.
A wave also gets Thanos' teleportation tech which they were using to overwhelm their opponents quickly and immediately.

But which was obliterated by a single, mid level herald, Firelord.

But the infant terrible and Terrax mind controlled were woefully ineffective because it wasn't true mind control but body control due to infestation with bugs.

Which is really irrelevant given that every singel Green Lantern can teleport.
