[bq]I mean she makes Chrysalis look like a complete idiot, as Chrysalis should have taken that fight easily… but fuck Chrysalis (see also, Pinkie vs Chrysalis).[/bq]
It's not OOC for Chrysalis to have more trouble winning than you'd expect for a given power level, really. Twilight beat Chrysalis in the comics when it came to a magic duel, due to her superior magical knowledge letting her get more mileage out of a power boost both of them had, and Starlight came across as a skilled fighter since S5.
Aside from Starlight, and later [spoiler]Pinkie[/spoiler], Chrysalis was also kinda humiliated by being briefly inconvenienced by [spoiler]Rarity and Spike[/spoiler], I'd argue.
It's not like Starlight was challenging Sombra, who has both power and finesse ([spoiler]and beat/brainwashed her offscreen in the S9 premiere[/spoiler]), one on one, or Tirek.
