Well, I was just basing my assessment on the chess match between them when they were children. Ikta's father called it a close match, and Ikta looked serious.

Peace.
I meant currently, but forgot to put that in the post, despite thinking I should have when I typed it.
I agree they were tactical equals in this episode's flashback period, and their combat skill was closer to each other as well.
I'm suspect we'll start to see Ikta pull away from her on a tactics basis next episode when they're teens, as well as Yatori displaying combat skill that puts her into bloodlust. That's how this flashback was introduced at the beginning of this episode; that Ikta is the only one who can force her to maintain humanity.
