Who wins and why?

Avengers.

Pretty close, but I lean JSA on more Herald levels.

It's Alan, not Allen.

Anyway, JSA. It may just come down to Alan vs. Thor, which is an odd fight to call, but I take Alan in it.

It's close otherwise. But once Alan's standing there, things go south for the Avengers.

Honestly, I think the likes of Pym, Stark, and Wanda swing it in favor for the Avengers.

Can I ask why, Jake?

I think the brain power behind the Avengers is incredibly exceptional and even barring HoM/Dissassembled feats, Wanda's hex powers are enough to be a game changer.

Avengers without a doubt

On the high level side, you've got Alan and Thor. Then you've got CM and Hulk. Finally you've got Power Girl and... Iron Man? Ms. Marvel? PG can likely handle both of them.

Damage is also really powerful as well.

Though it does occur to me Carol could amp up on damage if they fought... or if she fought Stargirl... if so, I'd swing it back to the Avenger.

I really don't think Karen could take on both Tony and Carol at the same time.

Speed kills, as usual.

Jay could speed steal from the one person even remotely close enough in speed to him, which is Pietro (not really close at all), let alone all the other slugs here.

Avengers would have stood a chance if Steve Rogers was in there instead of Bucky.

Nah-Var is pretty tough too

This, too.

He was able to hang in a bout against Sentry circa Dark Avengers.

Are you suggesting Jay solos?

Hell.

Yes.

Come at me.

I think Jay is barely light-speed. Thor should be faster than him in that case.

If you want brain-power though, the JSA has Mr. Terrific.

Thor's not faster than Wolverine or Hulk.

Basically, he's supersonic to low end hypersonic in reaction time. Like a lot of high end street guys.

Combat speed vs. flight speed. Learn it.
