Even if he did get hit, it wouldn't be an instant win. The Wakandans had to dry him out almost completely to weaken him enough to take him down. Getting zapped would piss him off, but it wouldn't beat him instantly, and he's far more maneuverable in the air than Homelander so I doubt he'd just continue to let himself be shot.

Namor casually dodges and deflects energy blasts from Wakandan aircraft and Ironheart multiple times. At one point he doesn't even look when Riri shoots at him and just nods his head out of the way. I don't see Homelander's heat vision being any different. In fact, it would be easier to avoid/deflect because unlike the energy blasts, it's a constant red beam that is easy to see and track.https://imgur.com/a/bilp210

Look how slow he is swinging the spear. The HV would have tagged him before he moved 1mm.
Plus the HV is a sweeping beam, not small bursts. You can't punch away a sweeping beam.
His HV was shown to slice through durable material like a hot knife through butter. Namor has no feats showing he can withstand that type of heat.
For you science nerds, you can apply Newton's law of cooling/heating.
The speed in which the HV heated the durable metal to melting point (almost instantly) suggests that the HV is more than 10,000 degrees Celsius.
And don't forget that homelander is probably as strong as Namor., if not stronger Even if he's weaker (debatable) it's not by much. Namor is not going to one shot him or something. The HV is the game changer. Without HV Namor wins the majority.

I guess you didn't watch Black Panther: Wakanda Forever as to why Namor will not be beaten by HV and know that such reason exists here if he is actually hit by a sweeping easy to avoid beam.
2). Namor has no showings that shows him fast enough to both
A) block the initial beam
B) continue to block a sweeping beam
His hand movement is far too slow.
Even if your argument is that he can block HV from a distance then he can't when up close in h2h range, especially while both are in fisticuffs.

His HV didn't kill Butcher or Soldier Boy when they fought and Namor appears to be above them strength and speed wise.
Well either
1) Those characters get that feat and are highly heat resistant, unlike Namor.
Or
2) Homelander used less power on them(proof is needed)
Or
3) Fiction inconsistency (you have to show them being harmed to heat less than the HV).
If Joe Blow resists 10,000 degree heat but gets his ass whipped by a 1 tonner then Joe is still heat resistant that gets ass whipped by 1 tonners. Lack of strength or speed does not disprove a fictional character's resistance to heat.
Your argument is faulty.
