Reasoning for stomp in case of battle:
Constantine has every single ability in his profile available to him except this single one

Reality Warping (By lighting the Wishing Matches,[107] John can make a wish, as shown when he took away the power of[108] God Swamp Thing if he so chooses)

Reasoning for talking out of battle and gg:
John Constantine usually solves his complications via talking his way outta them, and is used to going out fine while messing with higher entities capable of stuff like Plot Manip and etc.
For the record, too:

Social Influencing (Sold his soul to the devil only to threaten The Presence into cancelling that deal, convincing it that he would be able to take over Hell, then wage and win war against Heaven.[17] Tricked the First of the Fallen into drinking holy water to save the soul of a friend.[18] By pretending to be eager to sell his soul,[19] conned a demon into thinking the market on souls was about to crash so that in his rage he would get rid of his underlings, who were about to kill him. Has terrified people[1] into giving him information on various occasions.[20] Scared off more than a hundred magicians,[21] all more powerful than him, by using his reputation and possibly some unknown form of magic. Can sneak subliminal, hypnotic messaging in his speech.[22] Routinely makes large sums of money in poker.[23] Walked into a police investigation and convinced them into following his orders just through his attitude.[24] After reading their memories, can make people go from threatening him to crying on the floor in a few sentences.[25] Can cause mundane objects to become magical just by convincing others that they are[26])

With the addition of a tremendous outsmart.

Gifted, though lacks common sense

Intelligence: At least Genius. John is very knowledgeable in occult matters,[79] and is expert in various kinds of magic, such as clairvoyance, summoning voodoo, necromancy and many others, and can even combine them in spells of his own creation.[83] As better detailed in his Social Influencing and Preparation sections in his Powers & Abilities, John is an incredibly clever talker and planner, with his sheer ability to convince people bordering on the supernatural and his wit in coming up with ploys being second to no one, not to mention a skilled detective, as shown when he tracked down a criminal that had evaded the police for his whole life in seemingly less than a day.[12]

So everything implies that it is very likely for the battle to look like Obi-Wan Kenobi vs. Traffic Stormtrooper, though through sheer talking.

Ngl I genuinly think John could passively get erased due to being too serious

Can't agree with you, since he prefers to avoid fighting 100% at the time and nothing indicates protag resists his SI
