This is something I've oddly never really dwelled on much. Like most things in the game, there's not a lot of outliers. You generally get 3 Favor by the time someone goes down. The outliers generally have some associated tradeoff; generally in the form of Favor denial.
Offensive favor generation is overall pretty rare and pretty much always requires 3 successes to get. I think whether you're good at it or not probably has more to do with what you're trading it for. Valen, for example, has fine favor generation, but gives up 2 damage for it. Amon is actually the only character to get it from 2 successes, but he pretty much gives up all of his damage to do so and mostly only benefits from it when his pet is down.
That puts Leo, Viatrix, Euryale (I), Stheno (I), Aemilia, Sulla, Nero (II), and Urbicus as the gladiators that generate the most favor as they die and don't "lose" anything to take favor when they attack. Other things of note is that Hagal and Acerbus can both generate 2 favor from a single attack, though Hagal pays for it out of his lifebar and requires 5 success to pull it off. Additional mention probably needs to go to Aquilla and Septimus, since Valor is pretty good at generating Favor when you remember it.
