Yang's Semblance makes her eyes turn red, hair glow (at higher levels), and basically boosts her physical strength. If Yang's Semblance was activated and she used that boost in power launch a barrage of crates at Neo (which I'm assuming are full of Dust), maneuverability and illusions wouldn't help much against a series of explosion. Still not saying Yang would win, but I can't believe the smallest character in the series can apparently hurt just as much (if not more) as a two story battle bot.

As far as Oobleck goes, I think it was you that brought up the principle of the Conservation of Ninjutsu, which was applied generously this episode. It has also been said on other chats that they aren't meant to fight on top of train cars and were only out of the picture once pushed off a train.
