1) I think Salem's cadre knows well who their enemies are, I can imagine Qrow's a marked man ever since he infiltrated their domain and saw "the things she's made."  Since he and the others have been on board before Cinder, they knew him before she did.  And, if perchance Raven is/was one of them, then that's even more reason they'd know of Qrow.  And I'm betting he'll know how to get to Qrow, bring up how he (most likely) failed to save Summer and now another "precious rose will wither and die," even if that's not true but what better way to throw Qrow off his game than by misdirection; Cinder did it well enough so I can see Tyrian being skilled in deception as well.

2) Only if he keeps his wits about him, if he loses his cool he'll start losing the fight, just like Yang did with Neo.

3) That's only if he knows what Tyrian is planning, and being a psychipath makes him unpredictable, which he'll undoubtedly use to his advantage.  He could have Qrow thinking he's gonna kill Ruby to prevent another Summer Rose, and Qrow wouldn't suspect anything different.  And you can't counter a plan you don't know, so I can see Qrow being caught flat-footed in this instance.

4a) No, nothing like what supposedly befell Pyrrha, he'd most likely nab Ruby, open a portal back o the Realm of Darkness and take his leave, much like Raven did in "No Brakes."

4b) Again, that's just as assumptiion, the show hasn't verified it either way, so it'd be pointless to speculate unless we have more concrete proof.

5) Sorry, I thought it'd be elementary; Ruby nails Qrow with the Silver Kamehameha by accident, sees what she's done and breaks down in despair, making her an easy target.  Now that is sick, and somrething I can see him doing.

6) That depends on how long it is before Tyrian makes his move, though I fear he'll strive to get it done the first time, so there's no failures on his record.  Hence why I see it happening in the finale rather than earlier.

7) If he sees Tyrian within a hundred yards of Ruby, I doubt he'll think Senor Psychopath has come for tea and crumpets, he'll assume the worst and take action, possibly before Tyrian can engage Team RNJR and thus there's no possible casualties.
