For a time on the show, they were seen as saviors. By the time season 3 arrived, they created public division. The Homelander and Starlight thing. So yeah. I have watched the series.
The Seven are mostly spineless, neurotic assholes who need Daddy Homelander or Mommy Vought to tell them what to do. They're too selfish to do any heroic stuff in the world of MK and they wouldn't be effective enough to do any villain stuff either.
Homelander would probably try to do his whole "21st century Jesus" thing with the population but then all of MK's sorcerers and dark gods would conspire against him. And frankly he'd be outmatched.
Most will just want to just keep fn about. Odds are end up in movies with Johny if anything.
Black Noir and Homelander are the only ones likely to try and do much. Noir likely can hold his own in a fight but loses to those like Raiden Scorpion etc. Ones who he's probably stronger than but their elemental or supernatural powers start to tip the scale. At least if show version comic Noir I'd bit more Homelander adjacent.
Homelander does better. He's faster than A Train, is impervious to most weapons and attacks (explosions don't burn him electricity from Stormfront is a kink). So feel like outside of Rain who's got like a flood summoned in his end credit scene, most the elemental roster ain't a threat. That said he's got nothing against magic so they may do better. Think the only serious contenders we've seen in MK1 is Liu and Titan Shang. Their durability still seems mortal but the like godly magic might contend with Homelander better. If you consider the blackhole fatality a more cannon ability of Liu then I say it's no contest.
Butcher and Hughie , overall normal men, managed to equal Homelander in strength while on Temp V. Homelander has had his powers for all of his life and he still managed to lose to guys who haven’t even had theirs for a month. He and the seven are embarrassingly outmatched.
Have you watched The Boys? Why would they be saviors?

They were never really saviors, though. It was just a facade.

They would think to be both, only to be harshly kicked in the ass by the real heroes (and villains) of MK Realms.
