I'll have to had this one over to Liadan.

Her overall kit brings much to the "battlefield". Long-ranged, short-ranged, Dust abilities, shields, and a "laser" is pretty overwhelming to combat against. Though Edwin is a lot bigger and heavier (strength wise) and his weapon is damn explosive in combat (no pun intended) it lacks speed. It'll be like dodging a wrecking, though it's sheer power will kill you in a single swing, you can evade it if you're fast enough.

Also, Edwin's semblance seems like a hefty double-edge sword of a semblance (yet again what isn't). The fact he can feel the pain while blocking attacks still means he's being hurt. It's like having heartburn everytime someone punches you.

To add, Liadan might be able to wear him down before he gets into range to swing BCBC if she continuously attacks at long-range.

Final verdict: Liadan. But this does not mean I discourage Edwin. He has one hell of a melee weapon and seems pretty balanced as a character overall. In the meanwhile, may the best, or favorite, OC win. o7
