I have to place my bets on Orion.

First of all, I believe that Orion is more detailed as a character than Sin. Usually, the profile who is more explained and/or developed has more things to work off of. Of course both characters can be read and overall understood from what's currently written on their pages, but the minor details within the text can drastically affect the outcomes of various situations.

This is one of those many situations.

Now, for my thought process:

Weapons

Sin - From what I assume, Sin currently has a singular form katana that can store wind and fire dust. As to what they do, no clue. I do guess that they are made to imbue his weapons with said elements or to cast dust spells, if he can do that. Taking note that his previous weapon had the capability of ranged attacks up to 25ft, his current doesn't have it. If I'm correct, this means that Sin has a lack of range abilities.

Orion - Orion's SSD is a crescent shaped blade with the ability to change into dual axes. Including to that, his weapons are capable of using a type of fire dust rounds which are noted to be quite explosive and can cause things to set fire. Though not explained specifically how the rounds are used, I believe they can be used as ranged attacks or used point blank to provide that extra "umph" with his close range attacks.

Thoughts - This feels like a speed vs power type of match up overall. Orion does have the advantage since he has ranged abilities.

Semblance

Sin - The gist of his semblance is that it allows him to almost instantaneously dash up to a range of half a mile within a short amount time. The minor details is that once near that half-mile limit, the semblance's glow within the eyes will begin the dim, and that it requires 3 minutes or less to recharge depending how much is already used.

Orion - His semblance double his strength for up to a minute. If he wants to multiply that increase in power by more, the amount of time he is empowered his lessened. After the effects, his offensive capability will decline for a short time. This excludes parameters such as agility and senses.

Thought - Sin's semblance most likely will out sustain Orion's if Sin manages it properly. If Sin can outmanuver Orion until his semblance is done, the fight will go more to his favor. However, Orion will still retain his agility and senses even after his semblance times out. If Orion decides and is able to play safe until his semblance is reset, Sin's advantage during that time will not matter as much.

Yet in terms of power and effectiveness, Orion tops Sin. If Orion ever manages to catch and hit Sin while empowered, Sin will most likely not be capable enough to make a comeback.

Fighting Style

Thoughts - Both Sin and Orion's fighting style is similar in idea. Sin is a rusher, a person who comes at their opponents at full speed. Orion is an "up in your face" type of fighter, meaning that they'll meet their opponents with full force. Both of them will most likely charge at each other with no relent.

Orion does have the extra detail that desppite his reckless style, he is capable of changing tactics on the fly if needed. This means that if Orion decides his main style isn't working out, he'll immediately change tactics to see if there are alternative ways to take down Sin.

<p style="font-weight:normal;"> Including to that, Orion is a type of person to taunt his opponents. Though unsure if Sin is gullible enough to take the bait, it will not fall in his favor if he does.

<p style="font-weight:normal;"> Other

<p style="font-weight:normal;"> Thoughts -  I do want to get and compare their personalities and history, but I don't think that they'll affect the outcome by too much. Their personalities are similar and the minor details between the two don't seem major to the fight. I would delve more into this subject, but it's early in the morning right now for me.

<p style="font-weight:normal;">For their history, they both got their tragic pasts and what not. Orion does however seemed to be a little more toughened up because of his experiences with abuse and fights.

<p style="font-weight:normal;">'And yes, it does seem like I'm biased towards Orion. But as i said before, I believe that Orion has more details to work with and reason out. '
