Really? On what basis do you say that? The strikers among the sample characters did dramatically more damage than the fighter and the only way the paladin reputedly did damage was to abuse his mark in a manner that the designers are supposedly eliminating from the game.
I'd like to be able to take the various DDM 2.0 minis as a basis and say that so-called defenders still get to deal a lot of damage, but based on the RPG side of the new cards, the stats: 1. are based on NPCs who have different roles and different rules from PCs and 2. do not bear much resemblance to the RPG stats when it comes to damage dealt.

Gloombunny said:Luckily, 4e defenders are not WoW tanks. I feel like a broken record saying this over and over, but 4e fighters are a strong damage-dealing class. They are not going to be consistently overshadowed by strikers. (Sometimes the strikers will do more, and sometimes the fighter wil do more, depending on what you're fighting and such.)
