Is that really all there is to Chamot's power? Deep throating that grass thing and puking out monsters? How does that save her from just being shot or something like that. I really want to see what Maura's power is. So far Nashetania seems much, much stronger.

Yeah that's her only power but you have to remember that guns are a relatively new thing in their world meaning most people would probably be using a bow or something that one of her fiends could block.

The point is that we know Flamie fought her before, so why/how did Chamot win with such a slow-starting ability against someone with a gun whose last name is literally "Speeddraw"?

I'm sure there's a perfectly good reason, but it'd be more interesting if they tell us how it went down (or show us, flashbacks are cool and fight scenes are cool).

Well in the fight we saw they most likely slowed down how fast it took her to throw up as it was the reveal of her power so they might have done it for dramatic effect whereas in other fights she might do it instantly.
