Sticky Fingers can now sap all of Ethan's EP now? That's a pretty large blow, and I will admit Ethan is definitely at an initial disadvantage if not stomped right there and then, especially if his Items aren't allowed (which can fully restore EP). Thankfully, things like Energizing (typically, a battlefield always is Energized when two Energized people fight, Ethan typically doesn't need to go over and touch it himself), changing forms, and such like electrifying things barely, if not at all, need Energy at all. (It's pretty complex how it works, but it's still a technique, not a trait)

Okay, before we continue, we have to decide if Ethan can use Lightning Dash/Super Signal and have access to his items, because this is starting to look more like a stomp the more I learn about Jay (If he does, when he retreats he would chug one down)

Biting and Curse Magic isn't going to do much since Ethan will always be in far range.

It's pretty clear that nothing from Ethan's arsenal offensively is going to work, ever. Which means it all comes down to if the Energized Enviorment can be effective.

First off, how is he going to recognize that things are clear threats? Well, I guess he probably has an answer for that huh...

Regardless, he may be able to absorb the elements from Ethan since he's weaker than him, but something from a Energized Power Cable is completely different, the power difference would be massive due to the mechanics of Energizing Enviorment to the point where a passive Aura shield probably isn't going to be enough, it would be like a rubber tire trying to completely insulate a powerful lightning strike- it's not gonna withstand it (plus, doesn't normal aura just completely negate the weakness to the elements anyways? if so what's the point of the weakness? Is there some loophole?). With New York City's electricity, Ethan has a lot of opportunities to completely zap Jay with Energized Electricity. He just needs to figure out how he can do so. There's multiple ways, even with DeeDee's and Jay's incredible senses, they can still undermine some insignificant details
 * Go into the sewers to lead Jay there and fight in some water, since Jay is focused on the real him, a clone can easily come down with a broken high voltage powerline, which would be absolutely devastating when it zaps Jay
 * Shoot fire/heat into the sky to create an Energized Thunderstorm, or heck, make means of creating an Energized Hailstorm. Whatever is the case, start heading to metallic areas or run up really tall buildings with Magnetism, since Jay is the aggressor, Ethan is the one luring him to be zapped by an Energized lightning strike, which, at that point, comes down to complete luck if he survives, VERY few people have lived a lightning strike. So Energized Lightning vs Energized Human (Jay), would be the same case
 * Quite literally any house has the capability to absolutely zap someone to death, Ethan can go into a house and turn on every single bathtub, every sink, every shower, break every toilet, and the whole house is now a complete hazard and may just flood the entire apartment building or even a street, cut the powerline, and Jay's through. At least in theory

This is assuming that Jay isn't able to absorb Energized Lightning, which as I said above, is very unlikely

Lastly, if the worst comes, Ethan can always just keep his distance from Jay for an inconclusive match. Since while Jay may know exactly where he is, Ethan has a ridiculously huge amount of ways to make a get away while trying multiple things to attack.
