I have an idea for the semblance, as a child he was a street orphan and was very pragmatic, cunning etc. as one would imagine you'd need to be to survive. So the idea for the semblance is that he has a sort of precognition as to what the ideal decision in a survival situation would be. Now this would obviously be limited to what he's capable of but would give him an accurate reading of how such a decision would work out in regards to his opponents skillset as well while allowing him to take into account potential choices he had not though of. It would probably take awhile to "read" the situation and come up with a perfect outcome and would probably have an active and passive component, like "dodge right" would be passively conveyed to him like a hunch, whereas more detailed outcomes and strategies would require conscious activation. It also wouldn't be constant with say a 5-10 second gap between passive and active flashes of insight. It's overpoweredness would be limited to what he can actually do, so he can't win every fight, and those he can't he'd know to retreat from, probably name it Instinct or somesuch.
