The problem is that
a) Diana and Jonn have a powerset that varies a little.
b) they also bring more to the table than just powerset. They bring a difference of perspective and mindset not offered here.
So while this line up fairs just as well vs many threats it doesn't fair as well vs some others. For example no one here could have given Despero the gift of Mayavanna. Meaning this league would have list that battle. The fact is every time Despero was defeated it was done by a powerset not present here. Even the initial defeat of the much weaker Despero was only because anaoper Carr freed the league. But that aside who would do the illusion Gypsy did to distract him, who would use the magic Zatanna did to defeat him twice, the Mayavanna gift of MMH. Literally every single time they defeated Despero the physical powerhouses lost to his TP/Hypnotism/mind control first.
Originally posted by beatboksNot entirely true. Supes has soloed him on a couple occasions. Including basically oneshotting him with heat vision once after the rest of the league lost. But again, Supes is absent here. He’s replaced with similar power set but not a character that can turn the dials to 11 and make everyone pale by comparison.
