I guess Vicky's weapon/abilities are already well-explained in his profile but I'll address some more specific stuff here so people can understand his strengths and weaknesses better...

So, in first place Victor is a Faunus, and therefore has good night vision (so the poor lightining in the arena won't be a disavantage to him). He's very agile and quick and has good reflexes, therefore he can dodge attacks with ease. However, he may have issues dodging attacks when he's gliding, or when he's using his Semblance in an offensive way. He also has rather good precision in fight, though not necessarily perfect. (He's still a student, anyway).

He's an assassin-type in fight since he quickly dashes out lots of damage, both physical and Dust-powered. He doesn't lack stamina and has a fair amount of physical strength but he lacks armor, therefore he can only rely on his Aura/Semblance/weapon to defend himself. He doesn't give up easily when injured and can resist for a while but he's definetively not tanky, at all.

His weapons have 2 modes: wing mode, which let him glide, and a mode similar to a tonfa/katar (please look at the pic, not sure how to explain it LMAO), which gives him more range in melee combat/CQC. They can also shoot flechettes made of Dust, which require precision to be shoot, so they aren't the best choice if Victor needs to be quick. His weapons doesn't let him actually "fly" or make him float on air; he just glides. It also could be said that while he can do both melee/ranged combat, he's obviously better at melee/short range.

His Semblance allows him to control the impacts of his own body (impact manipulation); this is, how much impact does his body recieve when he recieves a strike (for example), or how much impact his attacks make when attacking. The main issues with his Semblance is that 1) it's limited by his own body's resistance and Aura: that means, it's not costless to make it work, so if he wants to significantly increase the impact of an attack with it, it can end up injuring him. Because of this reason he uses it in a defensive way most of times, giving him more endurance in battle. And, 2) he can't obviously keep it active all the time because it drains Aura, so he must careful when using it.
