Defenders. Slightly.Crap, that's a tough match-up. Very nice.
Defenders have 2 "Can-do-anything" types. Strange and Surfer.
Avengers only have 1. Thor.
You know, they guys that can do anything they want, or need to do and the only limit they have is the imagination of the writers.

Originally posted by JakeTheBankDon't get me wrong, Sentry is top-tier power.
Also depends on Sentry as well.
But, the "Can Do Anything" guys are the ones that literally pull shi* out of their asses. Manipulating power sources, enhancing strength, controlling the environment, suddenly being able to control things they never controlled before, etc.
In an actual book, Tony Stark would probably be the wild card. Some weird plan, weapon, etc. Even though he is the weakest.
Sentry might not have the versatility of Surfer, Strange, or Thor, but even barring Void shenanigans, you could feasibly argue him being the most powerful person here. Of course, you'd definitely have to be willing to argue the point.
And there's the fact that you have the less versatile members such as Namor and Hulk on the Defenders where as the Avengers are generally more balanced in terms of power sets.
