I love Blair to death, but against Blake it's a no contest. Put her against Leone than it'll be difficult story

I think Blake would have a lot more fighting experience, being a member of the white fang for most of her life.
Blair on the other hand has some magical abilities, but I think Blake has the edge since she fights more often, where Blair is cute, but not really that battle minded.

Oh no... My two favorite characters are fighting each other!

I love Soul Eater!
But I must go with Blake!

She's from an anime called Soul Eater.

Well, Blair has magic, but the thing is, she doesn't use it much in the show. Even when she does, Maka was able to dodge most (if not all) of the attacks. And her other pair of attackers only work on boys.
Blake on the other hand (unless you're using standard Death Battle rules) would be hesitant to fight Blair since she'd see her as a Faunus. But when Blair attacks Blake would have no trouble dodging her.
Final Verdict: Blake
(Sorry I said that Soul...)

The immense irony to this is that Monty owns a Blair statuette, or at least, I think they said it was his. They mentioned it on the podcast at one point, so I think we can tell what inspired a bit of Blake's design.

The statuette actually belongs to Kerry (podcast 202)

Ahh, it was Kerry's. Regardless, the point still stands that there are quite a number of similarities in Blake and Blair, and I think it isn't beyond reasoning that one influenced the other.

which surprises me, since Miles hates Blair with a passion.

Indeed. I think with regards to Blair, there is the somewhat obvious notion that she is a fanservice character. That isn't really hard to believe, especially given I very much enjoyed Soul Eater and I still recognized that fact. That said, I think there are far more egregious examples of rampant fanservice, and Blair is a rather tame example compared to say...everything in H.O.T.D. Β which gets to the point that the fanservice directly interferes with many other aspects of the show.
I think Blair is a result of Miles disdain for Blair, in that she is almost a response to the fanservice of the stereotypical neko-character. Blair is very much the antithesis of that style. She's reserved, stoic, and not overtly used to give the viewers eye-candy. Whereas typically that character is played up to be rather extroverted, touchy-feely, and just inherently used to give the anime-demographic something to oggle.
I think RWBY in general is pretty good about that, perhaps as a result of the disdain towards fanservice in the production staff. Β The series itself tends to avoid making, or even portraying characters in ways that are overtly perverse. Despite the other faults with it in regards to being an anime, I think RWBY is still light-years ahead of the competition with regards to the way it portrays its characters. Β I mean, they aren't eye-candy, and furthermore, one can infer some pretty damn deep things about them, whereas it's often bluntly stated in other series.
But I think this is tangential to your actual point. In a show-down between the two? I'd actually say it'd be neither. They don't seem the type to choose to fight each-other, and even if so, the conflict would likely be situational at best. Β

Situation: They both happen to go to the store at the same time, and there's only 1 can of tuna left. Brawl commences.

Sounds about right.

I'm sorry. I love Soul Eater but I must admit that Blake would win.

I love sould eater but my money's on Blake
π: 0 β©: 0
How about we challenge them to a tuna eating contest?
π: 0 β©: 1
... Blair probably, since we haven't seen Blake eat any tuna yet.
π: 0 β©: 1
She does eat some, though.
Ruby said, "She does like tuna, a lot."
π: 0 β©: 1
Fair point, forgot about that line. Though I'd still say Blair.

How about Blair vs Taokaka in a tuna eating contest?
"Meow?"

Even though I love RWBY, and haven't read Soul Eater in years (and even then I was never up to date), I don't know if Blake could stand Blair's magic attacks. I still want Blake to win though, since I remember Blair can instantly revive, so it's no biggy if she loses.Β

Last time I checked,Blairβs magic are easy to dodge and it only works on males.
