I would say try to do it in a way that makes sense. There's a rule I always follow when I build a character's skillset and optimizing power.

- Speed

- Power

- Utility

- Defense

Pick 2 of 4 in terms of a student from them to excel at, 3 at most for a veteran/adult characters. IF we look at it critically, Slate has the Speed, Power, and Defense covered with the fighting style alone. Coupled in with his Semblance, that's Utility.

I think my concern in terms of the way you wrote Slate is that you're trying a bit too hard to cover all your bases. The Prowess section begins with 3 paragraphs about how unstoppable sounding his fighting style is that it would seem like he'd be untouchable, which I personally don't like.

At best, it tempts bunnying during RPs when you create a seemingly unstoppable student with a skillset that covers all bases. At worst, no one would like to RP with Slate.
