How powerfull is an average ninja in Zed's order compared to an average mage
Title. And by mage I mean each region's average mage. By powerfull I mean skill included.

Xayah and Rakan make easy work of Order initiates so their skills aren't much-- considering that these two don't boast exceptional strength or magic like other Vastayan champions. So the ninjas are essentially just normal people. No stronger than your average footsoldier.
Compared to that, the mages that Noxus employs seem quite a lot more powerful.
I think the average ninja is a bit out of their league if they had to face against mages, they don't appear to have a lot of mastery or any use of shadow magic yet, even base Kayn requires Rhaast in order to use shadow step and umbral tresspass and he's Zed's prodigy. i think they'd stack fine against most soldiers and the average civilian, but I think Zed himself or Shadow Assassin Kayn could really make short work of most mages

Based on this cinematic, I'd say they've got about as much HP as a melee minion at level 18 (around 1200), and even lower attack speed, considering the fact that they had around 2s~ to attack while Rakan was running at them. This is assuming Xayah and Rakan are "full build", and Rakan is building utility instead of AP, as we see that after he uses his knock up+ult (for a total of 550 magic damage, assuming he is level 18.) Xayah still needs to hit an auto to finish them off. Perhaps they have negative armor but a bit of MR, which is why we see Xayah one-hitting a ninja at the beginning of the cinematic. This is assuming she is full build with crit, btw.
