WanderingSkull's GraveDigging Tunes "Its Simple We Kill The Assassin" 

Hidden Blades: Considering both have the same weapon, Shay wins out here because he has two. The problem with the Hidden Blade is that it kind of loses the ability to be hidden if it does not kill in the first hit. Shay has two, so he still has the chance to surprise Arno with that second strike. EDGE: Shay Cormac

Iconic: The Phantom Blade completely pales in comparison to the versatile Air Rifle. Literally, the Air Rifle has so many options at its disposal that it can overwhelm the Phantom Blade. Plus, those grenades can cause Arno to go to sleep or go crazy ruining his stealth and intelligence. Shay takes a great edge in this battle. MAJOR EDGE: Shay Cormac

Melee: Once again, Cormac manages to overwhelm Arno in terms of versatility against his opponent. The sword is similar to the cutlass so that helps counter Arno's own sword. Plus, the parrying dagger manages to block off hits and makes it much more difficult for Arno to land a hit as he has to keep his focus on two weapons rather than one. The parrying dagger allows for disarming chances too. EDGE: Shay Cormac

Firearms: Once again, Cormac manages to overwhelm Arno with more firearms to attack him with. Arno is skilled with firearms, but Cormac is skilled enough to use two and aim both with great accuracy. So while Arno is busy loading up his next shot, Cormac will be aiming other firearm at the assassin. EDGE: Shay Cormac

Special: Now this is going to be more tough compared to the more clean cut edges above. Arno manages to snag his first edge in this battle due to the sheer power behind his Heavy Axe. The Rope Dart is good, but it takes time to aim and its usage is going to be limited to the location its being used in. Plus, Arno's agility and freerunning makes it easier to avoid the Rope Dart. EDGE: Arno Dorian

Explosives: Arno comes in with another edge due to the pure variety of explosives he has, including a smoke bomb. Still, three of the bombs are going to be useless due to Cormac's gas mask which blocks off those from taking effect. The stun grenades and explosive are lethal or perfect for getting a few moments into attacking for Arno. EDGE: Arno Dorian

Deadliest Warrior: Shay Cormac- I'm going to be perfectly honest and say, that the result of this battle is not surprising. Arno was trained to be an assassin as was Shay, this is where the true weakness of Arno's fighting style comes in. Shay is a master assassin hunter and Templar, this allowed him to counter much more experienced Assassins than Arno and his Templar training also has taught him a few tricks. The weapons are just icing on the cake when it comes to Cormac's victory. Really, Arno's main advantage is the explosives and his knowledge of France, but he's going to be overwhelmed by a master Assassin hunter and Master Templar, Shay Cormac.
