Just looking at the numbers favors DC metas whithout even looking at the powers.
In powers you have so many speedsters. Barry, Wally, Jay, Bart, Jessie Q, Johnny Q, Impulse, XS, Max Mercury, reverse flash, Zoom, zyklon, lady Blitzcrieg, trinity Blue, Trinity Red , etc.
You have matter manipulators Firestorm (×2), Cyclotron, Miss America, and a couple more)
A few low level reality warpers like Flex Mentallo, Mr Nobody, Dorothy Spinner to name a few.
In DC al ml ost every non Alien or magic powered characyer is a meta (and some of the aliens and magic guys are too)
@Beatboks I mean Marvel have too many heavy hitters also, no?
Franklin Richards, Legion, the Marquis of death is an actual mutant, Mr X, Darkchilde, Proteus, Add all the heavy hitters like current namor
Unstoppable colossus
Magneto
Every telepath ever including Exodus
Plus all the mutants that can adapt to abilies, copy abilities, etc
AND BTW I wouldn’t class the speedsters as metas unless born from it. I say this because from what I understand the universal term for a meta is one with the meta gene or one born with the ability like Martians, and Kryptonians (even then that ones kinda thrown back and forth in DC)
“In DC Comics, the term is used loosely in most instances to refer to any human-like being with extranormal powers and abilities, be they cosmic, mutant, science, mystic, skill or tech in nature. A significant portion of these are normal human beings born with a genetic variant called the "metagene", which causes them to gain powers and abilities during freak accidents or times of intense psychological distress.”
with Marquis of Death out there I wouldn’t place a bet on that at all
Franklin Richards as well (older) is an issue. His younger version recreated the multiverse after Battleworld. His older version was the last living thing after reality itself
"Everyone in DC with powers" vs "Every Mutant in Marvel" is too much of cluster****. Try to put actual teams against each other, please. Ones with smaller, manageable rosters.
And Marvel side got liek got like 20 reality warpers, and 10 more that can copy those 20
Miranda is a reality warper on a level that controls all of Marvel reality. The combined might of her with all the mutant reality warpers and cosmic level psionic mutants is ****ing overwhelmingly OP. It's hard to really describe exactly how ridiculous she is.
Miranda is "do not use in normal continuity" level broken. That bad.

Do we count magic users as meta humans? since their power isn’t due to genetics/their own abilities but rather tools aka magic. Though I suppose a case could be made for her and shazam like magic users
Plus the myriad of telepaths, and other hax still helps them out. Not counting the power copiers/stealers the mutants have at least 3 doomsday’s basically (reactive adaptation), and not to mention time manip and even biological manip

a meta human as a very loose term:
