I AM HERE TO ADD SOME POINTS WITH THE INCREDIBLE POWER OF SCIENCE!

okay first of all, if Alala's semblance doesn't reduce his strenght, then his melee attacks are actually stronger when he's weightless, why you ask?, 'CUS MATH.

you see the formula for kinetic energy is K = m*(s^2)/2, where K = kinetic energy, m = mass and s = speed, since Alala's flail doesn't lose wieght m is the same, but s is bigger 'cus he uses virtualy no energy to move his own body, ergo more force goes to the flail, which means greater acceleration and thus greater speed, so weightless Alala's flail actually hits harder.

second, regarding it not being clear whether or not Alala has more ammo than Dalton, Alala's ranged weaponry is 2 revolver shotguns, revolvers aren't revolvers without a drum, so that means he has at least 2 rounds per gun, and honestly i was aassuming 6 shooters, 4 shooters at least, so yeah he has at least twice the ammo without reloading that Dalton does, and that's if his revolvers have silly tiny drums.

something i think is extremely important here is, how draining is Dalton's semblance?, and how big is the arena?, since Dalton's bulwarks need grounding to be deployed he can't just put barriers anywhere, if the Arena's ceiling is high enough he'd have to make very tall prisms ( or a load of smaller ones) before he can cover air space. Furthermore while yes Glass pannels can block smoke, smoke moves pretty fast, and will quickly move around said pannels and get everywhere, especially if movement is added from Alala's flail or wind dust rounds, and being gas it moves in all directions, including up the bulwarks, meaning given enough time Alala can just float over them unless they reach the Ceiling, though admittedly this would get progressively harder the taller the barriers get.

last but not least, since Alala's smoke sticks to things, each prism Dalton deploys can be turned into a dust-smoke bomb for Alala to use, meaning Dalton's semblance could backfire spectacularly on him. it's worth noting not even the sturdiest bullet resistand glass can take medium-to-high yield explosives which Alala's dust smoke clouds seem to be, so a fire charged cloud would blow up the bulwarks, and glass shards would be sent flying everywhere, this could literally stab Alala in the back (or the gut) though, so detonating dust clouds while there's a lot of prisms would be very VERY dangerous for both combatants.
