I can't really say that affects him that much if at all since he's been using that weapon for years. Considering even a weapon as badly designed as Ruby's scythe can still hold ground with much better weapons of higher caliber. This is especially relevant with Coco, who can still walk around as if not being weighed down at all with her handbag which turns into a gatling gun of 3 times the size.

Also, consider that Alalā's a third year, and he's been using this weapon for years. This was his main weapon for his time in Haven and way back even during his time as an assassin. He's already figured out what the weight of his weapon should be and how to utilize it, and he's pretty much mastered it considering how long he's had it.

Also, with the whole hot-and-cold explosiosn to break through a glass and making the smoke sink and stuff. That'd be great for Alalā' since it doesn't really matter where he'll be attacking it, what does matter is that if he can do it to the point that the glass warps so much that it breaks. Besides, in hindsight, unless Dalton traps himself inside Alalā' won't need to do that. He just needs to get close and abuse his ability to freely move in smoke, which would normally be difficult to see through. Remember by description he requires the smoke to be dense enough for his figure to be seen as but a sillouette but that doesn't mean he can't go farther and making it  nearly impossible to see through. Add the fact that being aura-infused increases its length by thrice only makes the fight even longer.

Also, you pointed out the arena being un-described and I realized that too. Imagine the Vytal Tournament's arena, the one used in the 1v1's and the ground is cement.

If you want to wait out his smoke, then you'll have to wait for a very long time. He's got over 36 extra dust rounds on his person, which would give him hours of smoke if he dedicates his weapon to do just that. Not only that, he can abuse his ability to move around his smoke clouds of little to no visibility and just strike at the most unpredictable of angles. The 20kg weight would make his swings very dangerous and can help in cracking through Dalton's glass if needed be.

Also, do mind that all of the info edited in  Alalā's page came from here just easier for anyone to find a specific detail in whichever part of his person. Prior to that there are no limiations to his ammunition, his speed when in smoke, and a few more details that wouldn't make this discussion fun at all for everyone.

Right now, in my opinion, this fight is surprisingly close. It really depends if  Alalā can go in and beat him fast enough before he seals himself in. Dalton can pretty much make a lot of large bulletproof glass with only his endurance being the sacrifice, but that can work against him as if he were to overdo it he might end up doing himself in rather than keeping himself safe.
