Cinder has the maiden power but hasnt perfected it since she only had it for months and even Amber was considered a rookie who had it longer i think. The best people to fight her would be Ruby, Velvet, Weiss and Yatsu. Yatsu to block for Velvet while she copies Cinder. Weiss and her glyphs and dust to counter Cinder's spells and glass. Ruby to alternate between sniping and getting in close and acting as a distraction.

Mercury is a good fighter but i think Fox or Qrow would be a great counter to him. He seems to be tough for a speedy fighter but Qrow seems to have speed and defense way more than Merc. Fox on the other hand seems to be just as fast as Merc and may be able to ruin his legs with his explosion aura bomb move.

Neo has her illusions and speed and a blade but i dont see her being too strong or durable. Blake would be good to drop her. Theyre both fast. Blake can also make fakes to confuse her. And Blake keeps a cool head and wont give in to taunts. If not Blake maybe Neon. But i strongly doubt it. She doesnt seem super smart.

Tyrian fighting Qrow was pure magic. But i think Glynda, Blake and Sun teaming up would be good to kill him. Blake and Sun are just as fast and can make their copies to distract him while between their exchanges Glynda tosses him around with her telekinesis. As long as he cant get to her first she can kill in instantly. Pick him up and slam him thru a spike of debris.
