Roman seems to be a very skilled fighter and it should be interesting to see how anyone else does against him. I wouldn't be surprised in the least if Ozpin loses to Roman at some point. Roman is dangerous enough as it is, plus he has insane plot armor, since his success is basically driving the plot at this point.

To tha point, Blake has matched everything anyone else has done, up to and including Weiss' one desperate hit on the deathstalker. As said somewhere (maybe this thread), we are developing the "Blake Effect", a close relative of the "Worf Effect".

However it's clearly getting to the point of hurting Blake. Fans having seen this supposed badass (whom they are just assuming is so because well... she looks awesome, has a cool personality, Adam, has a Variant Ballistic Chain Scythe... Katana... thing... and is a catgirl...)  getting her arse handed to her by anything major (though apparently they don't care when Ruby does the great scythe equivalent of pimp slapping a tiger to a Death Stalker which is like when Ash is insistant in punching every two-legged pokemon/human antagonist in a given movie... in every bloody movie) and have it ingrained into their minds that, no matter how many times Blake looks good in battle that it's because she is with someone else (Sun, Adam, Ruby).

Seriously Blake needs a really badass showing in Volume 2..
