I take the question in a subjective [who are you most drawn to] and objective [who is the greatest within Ea]

Objectively, I think JRRT leaves no doubt manwe is to be seen as greatest for the simple reason that it is he alone who has recourse to Eru Iluvatar and all of the valar are in authority to Eru through him. In a ideally creative communal way.

subjectively , it depnds on my mood. i love Ulmo's willingness to befriend the eldar even during the Ban,
elbereth's vereration by the Elves is sublime [see thje road goes ever on] Tauron aka Orome is probably my favorite by affinity.
