It was a pretrty good line-up. You had heavy duty powerhouses, such as Blue Marvel. Photon and She-Hulk. A couple of middle-tier household names in Cage and Spider-Man, and a couple of newbies like White Tiger and Chi-Boy (sorry, I can't call him Power Man when Cage is standing right there). Blade (Ronin), Falcon and Iron Fist hanging around sure didn't hurt it. I wish we could have seen more of it.
Minors had always been a problem with the Classic Avengers. Look no further than Rage for this (I think Silver Claws was also a minor and that was an issue, but I'm not 100% sure). Both, Justice and Firestar were at collage age when they became Avengers, so, no, not minors. Young, but not minors. This rulle seemed to be thrown out of the window with the proto-Champions line-up. I hope the team becames more structured again, and no minors becomes an issue again. The way I see it, Avengers should always be composed of seasoned professionals.
I liked it. Slott's Mighty Avengers was, for me, a freash breath of air of classic style Avengers in the middle of Bendis' long run. However, I have to say Cassie bugged me like hell (and, taking my cue from the answer above, she is another minor that, IMHO, had no place in the Avengers). I'd much rather she'd been replaced by Photon as a classic Avengers that was not being much used at the time. I also think that they didn't use Jocasta as well as they could have, relegating her to merely caretaker of Hank's lab or of the Infinity Mansion.
I always found that line-up TOO powerful and not intresting enough. I mean, you have 5 Super-Heavy-Hitters and two pratically "baseline" normal humans. The power gap is kind of TOO huge. Plus, not much personality conflicts. I'd have mixed it up a bit more.
