Revisiting an old classic: the fan-wielding young subvillains of LOCH (Au Yeung Hak) and ROCH (Fok Do) go at it.

Both have great masters, both are clever and sly, and both are adept at trickery.
For some reason I think Fok Du will slightly have the edge. This is probably influenced by the fact that he handled himself fairly well against Guo Jing when they fought at the QuanZhen Sect at the beginning of the story, and at the Heroes Gathering he handled himself fairly well against the guy who fights with the ink brush, as well as against a mid-level Yang Guo. Not only that but at the event to appoint a new Beggar Clan leader, he did well against Yelu Qi when disguised as a Beggar.
Remember, this is only when both are taken straight from their time periods and not following the timeline (otherwise Au Yeung Hak, if he survived and was no longer injured, would be much older than Fok Do if they met).

Bit of a leap there as we really don't know how good FD's needle throwing skills were compared to HR at the beginning of LOCH. However, even if we assume FD did have comparable skills in that regard that only means he can nullify the snakes. OYH had other poisons at his disposal.
I'm not sure I'd characterize Fok Do's performance against Gwok Jing at the Chung Yeung Temple as "fairly well." Fok Do was embarrassing himself flailing ineffectually upon Gwok Jing's chest, and nearly suffered a fatal aneurysm after Gwok Jing grabbed Fok Do's fan. The only reason Fok Do didn't die ignominiously or end up crippled for life was because Gwok Jing had no desire to harm him (maybe on the account that he might have been related to one of Gwok Jing's old Mongol buddies).
That's why I say Ouyang Ke's snakes and poisons might be didn't "work" against Huodu since he never use any of poisons in fight he also never "cheated" he is more proud/arrogant than Huodu given his status as Ouyang Feng's "heir" while Huodu he never mind using "dirty tricks" even against people like Lu Yujiao..
He did use it against H7G during their fight on the ship and again at the battle of the Drunken Immortal Pavillion. It takes time to gather enough snakes and poison to threaten someone on a Great/near Great level, but HD was nowhere near that level. OYK could just throw a dozen snakes at him and HD would be in trouble.
Indeed. Au Yeung Hak typically used the snakes, scorpions, etc., highly effectively against opponents as powerful as Mui Chiu Fung (slightly stronger than himself). It didn't work against Greats because...well, they're Greats. It also became less effective against Gwok Jing after Gwok Jing drank the blood of Leung Tze Yung's snake (granting him limited resistance to snake venom), but against Fok Do, it should work well.
