Powers & Abilities Shanks vs Mihawk took interesting turn

That'd be dope for sure, since every top tier that we've seen go all out seems to have a gimmick that make em top tier. Kaido & BM with their innate durability from their tough skins. Having Shanks' skillset based on disrupting others' CoO FoV would be neat, but the thing is would be it something special to Shanks or would it be something that anybody at a certain CoC level would be able to achieve?
Exactly as you said.
I believe he's been using both his CoC and CoO to counter/kill FS of his opponents.
Though that breath thing is a bit confusing but if it's intimidating, than it's definitely through CoC like we've seen it against Greenbull. Later this not letting his opponent use FS but he could very not only see but hear things as well.
Like @Den_Den_Mushi said, it's really huge for Mihawk to still have duels on equal footing with Shanks even under such circumstances. It should be that after being dueling with another on multiple occasions, they both created there trump cards to counter each other. There would definitely be something about Mihawk which could put pressure on Shanks as well.

From the looks of it, none of Shanks' abilities here are getting him off the hook of being a swordsman. A burning sword, and a way to counter FS/CoO. Also, confirmation that Shanks had ACoC before he lost his arm, which implies: 1) Shanks was a very high level fighter even back then, and 2) Mihawk likely has it too.
Of course, there's always the possibility that Shanks has several other powers/abilities that weren't revealed in this film. But I'm not seeing any haki Susanoo, haki kamehameha's, haki-formed arms, or martial arts like I was told. At the very least, this film isn't giving those people much to work with.

Kizaru actually got blitzed by Shanks in this movie from their brief exchange. It's on YouTube.
Zoro fans take note. This is what a speed blitz really looks like. Not that Asura crap.

Btw, Crydo was unable to react to Asura at all (unlike Kizaru to Shanks' attack), so, yeah, Asura was beyond speed blitzing.

He is, actually.
You're right. Kizaru in there injured Shanks heavily with one Yasakani and pretended to be afraid after Shanks pointed Gryphon at him. Kizaru must indeed have been blitzed despite not even getting scratched.

Also before you point out that it makes Shanks look bad, don't forget that even Garp was bleeding after Luffy and Dadan punched him.
Not everyone is Kaido/Big Mom levels of durability if they don't defend themselves with haki.
Even normal civilians could beat Shanks up? No wonder he lost bigly to @Lor D. Coast. 
Good thing Papalino went easy on him and unleashed Yasakani only once.

Shanks is stronger than mihawk imo but it’s a lot more close than people are giving it credit for. As of right now based off of what we know it’s objectively hard for me to place mihawk above shanks cuz that would be insane dickriding ngl but we gotta tone it down on the mihawk slander lol this mf is NO JOKE😭. One of the first adversaries shown in the series and he’s going to be there in the end as well. Mihawk just has a more laid back personality unlike shanks that’s why he’s not seen as a threat to some. But he has that title of world strongest swordsman for a reason man can’t just ignore that.
