@King You give lots of examples of solo missions but you haven't given any examples of when it is not advantagous to go solo.

One common arguement you make is

1) Cinder (or insert another character)  is a smart huntress/hunstmen

2) Cinder fights solo and wins

3) smart huntresses/huntsmen fight solo

Where as I completely regect your premise. Cinder is not smart. She and most other fight winners win because of anime logic.

Look at this moment of Cinder vs Pyrrha (https://youtu.be/hq1lk-QWxNg?t=8m40s). Cinder uses fire to escape Pyrrha's gear prison.

Except thats not how fire works. Fire has no mass because F=ma => fire cannot exert a force.

Fire can't push or pull or lift anything. All it can do is spread and heat things up. Realistically, Cinder would have just made the gears crushing her to be red-hot gears crushing her. From a Physics perspective Pyrrha would have suffocated Cinder and won the fight.

Or when Mercury was able to travel at 234 times the speed of sound to dodge a lightning bolt. Source (http://vsbattles.wikia.com/wiki/User_blog:Thebluedash/RWBY_Calc_-_Mercury_and_Emerald_dodges_lightning_and_Ruby_displaces_rocks_(Vivi%27s_calc) )

Or when Yang is able to jump faster than she launced Ren into the air in Best Day Ever ( https://youtu.be/PzPZ6joXq5Y?t=8m25s). Why don't you try throwing a ball 20 feet into the air and then jumping up 20 feet and catching up to it before it starts to go down. Even if you had some superpower that let you jump that high it would still be impossible to jump faster than you can throw.

As a matter of fact, it is the stupid characters that win fights for stupid reasons.
