Whether one would win in a battle against any of the others is basically rock paper scissors. Thank you! I don't like the discussions like "who is stronger - X or Y?" till we don't talk about characters with similiar specialities (hand-to-hand combat, swordsmen, active dust users etc). Exactly. For example, Yang is incredibly strong, and her Semblance gives her a lot of strength. However, she was easily defeated by Neo because Neo's fighting style was a good counter to hers. It doesn't matter if Neo is physically weaker than her or if her umbrella/sword doesn't do as much damage per hit. She still beat Yang because her fighting style was a perfect counter.

And like I mentioned before, Weiss would've done better against Neon Katt than Yang did. That wouldn't mean that Weiss is stronger than Yang, just that she's more equipped to deal with swift opponents because she, herself, can also be swift, and she could place glyphs on the ground to mess with Neon's movements.

Stuff like that.
