Reverse Flash wins pre being stacked in the timeline and post.

Zoom was not capable of performing a speed mirage while RF can. As you know if you perform a speed mirage you split your power in half. And prior to the finale of Season 1 when Eobard is not using a speed mirage, Eobard kicked a trained Flash ass. Flash's speed barely changes from season 1 to season 2 speed before he lost his powers. (He gained even more speed when he was in the speed force that's how he defeated Zoom) And the Tachyon Device increased his speed 4 time span that of Zoom.So if Reverse Flash is faster than Barry with the Tachyon device he can beat Soom. (Not to mention Reverse Flash was not trying to kill Barry since he needs a way home, so it is safe to sssume he was holding back) Some can say Flash beated RF in episode 12 but this fact doesnt support anything since Reverse Flash himself was inexperienced at this point.
