1: yes, being emotional in a fight can turn out badly, but she didn't exactly have time to meditate her thoughts out.

2: She did use her semblence. Roman was simply able to overpower it.

3: She most likely used her top speed in the begining to get the drop on him. Element of surprise style.

4: We don't even know if she CAN vary her speed in the middle of a dive.

5: Straight lines are faster, she was going for speed. Also, ever tried complex thought and tactics during a high speed combat? It can get difficult.

6: If she didn't make use of her semblence from the beginning, she likely would have lost sooner. She was out of her level.

I will admit to being somewhat biased (somewhat, I try to see both sides at all times) but Blake isn't weak. She is more durrable than Weiss, who was seen to be out of breath on multiple occasions. All of her fights were simply stepping out of her level. Roman, Spider-droid, and Nevermore where all above her.

For victories, she has numerous androids who were cut to ribbons. Also, it took Yang, the powerhouse of the team, multiple hits to kill an Ursa. It took Blake one. She has a lot of work to do, but so do all the others.
