User blog comment:Zathronas/Speculative Author - Who might die in episode 12 Part 2/@comment-10380701-20160209234523

As fucked as it is, I feel Qrow has a far FAR higher chance of dying than Ren. Maybe just not in this volume with the same reasoning that it's close to Monty's death anniversary.

From the looks of it, high-profile voice actors appear to have a better chance of kicking the bucket based on what happened to Amber. (And that one ship captain)

With that said, alongside Qrow, I'll also add Taiyang as a potential alternative, as there has been mention of his weapon/semblance (both? forgot) being badass. So he might appear just in time for the finale.

Just in time to give Adam a fist full of Papa Rage. XD
