Zelena is a superior and more importantly faster Regina, except fot the latter has light magic. In the battles that Once has on the show, they never last long because it's brief and then the attacker usually poofs out.

Zelena vs Regina, Round One: Zelena deflects a traffic light, tosses Regina into a car and then cancels her fireball and proceeds to strangle her until she tosses her into the clocktower where she wants her heart and then flies away.

Zelena vs Regina, Round Two and Round Three: Regina threates and sets up her arms to roast Zelena and is knocked out by Zelena

Round 4: Zelena taunts and chokes her, Regina stuns her with Light magic, removes the necklace and that's that.

So......Zelena only seems to lose to Regina because she wasn't ready and because of that vulnerability to light magic. Regina loses as long as Zelena isn't taunting while Regina has secret light magic.

Unamped, Zelena is closer to Regina's level with Regina's newfound light magic, but is more natural. We'll have to see what she's capable once she returns in Once, which I'm sure she will.
