The Deadliest Warrior, Jr.'s Jr. Edges:

For short range, I have to give the Edge to the Warden. Why? A flaming sword that has lightning powers is going to beat a slightly enchanted staff any day. In real life, sword beats staff and enchanting both won't change anything. Edge: Warden

Hmmm.... for CC1, Firestorm seems to be able to be used more frequently but doesn't last as long, whereas Inferno is more devastating and lasts longer but takes longer to recharge. Even so, Inferno DOES last longer and DOES cause more damage, so I'll give the Edge to the Warden for CC1.

For CC2, Warden's power again seems more powerful and lasts longer - even after it's gone, the victims are still trapped in ice. Tempest is okay but again less damaging and lasts less time. Edge: Warden

In Healing, Warden gets the Edge because he can heal himself and damage his opponent simultaneously. Hawke can only heal passively, not attacking whle doing so. Edge: Warden

Leolab said it best himself for armor: "The Mantle provides some good armor bonuses, but when scaled correctly it doesn't provide nearly as much as the Juggernaut Plate Armor." It's obvious that the Warden has the superior armor which will stop a lot of Hawke's attacks. Edge: Warden

The winner here is Warden. Hawke is beaten weapon-for-weapon and the outcome will be similar to Monk vs. Maori. Expect a total victory from Warden - superior armor, magic, and weapons range-for-range.
