I think Piper actually (also because, I really do like Piper and I know some people don't. She needs some support). She's been practicing swordplay, and she has the ability to charmspeak. While the Mist which Hazel has just learned to use, may make you see things, Piper knows about that ability. Charmspeak makes you do things and the mist makes you ''see things. ''I think doing something is much more efficient then seeing but it's really hard. I respect both characters and this was a good match since it's really hard for me to choose. Hazel is also younger than Piper, but I don't think I can really say much else about that, since she was actually like a century older too... However, maybe Hazel's old fashioned terms could give Piper an advantage in a fight, with taunts and such.

Piper is also pretty good with her dagger, and well, I know this is a fight with Piper and Hazel but from the past as I can tell, Jason is usually around to throw in a lightning bolt or too for her. But that's not a valid reason, so *shrugs*

And, as I said this one was HARD Umm, not really. (Although thank you for providing something to *cough* piper hate *cough* debate on.) And as said above, Charmspeak won't work so well on, A. someone who is the same gender B. knows about it. And Hazel could just use the mist to make Piper see Jason getting all mushy about Reyna or something, and then Piper would break down crying, and Hazel could stab her and then everyone is very happy. All Piper's done threw out the series is sit around and talk. Hazel has been useful. That girl came back from the dead into a tottaly different century. Plus, she gave up Elysium for her mom. This girl has seen it all. And Hazel can taunt just fine. Naturally Piper would use taunts as her weapon. Pretty talk doesn't help. And Hazel wouldn't need to talk. By the time Piper figures out which end of the dagger is which, Hazel could have done a variety of things to her that a large chunk of the fandom would be very happy about. (Have Arion run her over, make her see things in the mist, simply stab her...)

Please give me an example of when Piper was "good" with her dagger? And like you said, she is always hiding behind Jason so he can come in and save the day for her.
