THis has to be one of the toughest fight to date, and after consideration I find Amet is the victor.

Weapons: Amet has the advantage in veristility of how he can attack. Fenice being a sword means that Amet has a way fo attack that Julian can't, which is the one of the only ways Amet can attack him because Julian has explosive protection. Julian's different types of dynamite is helpful in battle, but due to Amet's quick reflexes, speed and Semblance, render most ineffective ranged. The hooked dynamite would be effected against Amet and close up the dynamite would do massive damage, but that then puts Julian in danger of Amet's blade. Therefore, actually having a bladed weapon gives him the edge.

Semblance: In terms of Semblance, I say Amet has the edge because of how both combatents use their semblance. Julian simply uses his semblance to light his dynamite from far to close distances, which is helpful. His aura gives him protection from damage, which includes attacks from swords. Amet's semblance gives him heighten reflexes, which can help him make critcal hits where Julian doesn't protect himself with aura or even countering dynamite by slicing it into pieces. Amet's aura gives him better perception which can help him avoid dynamite near his location or coming at him.

Fighting style: Amet's is defensive while Julian's is offensive. Both fight ranged and close quarters. Both expertise in one fighting style, but Julian has an advantage because he fights dirty, while Amet is advantaged in always staying one step ahead. Therefore I call even here.

After this i conclude that Amet wins, even with it being so close.
