Besides that, we haven't seen his semblance, and we haven't seen the arm. And he's barely fought. He's also too important to get killed off-screen.

When it comes to Ruby fighting Roman and Neo, I personally have a little theory. I think Roman is going to send Neo out to get her, and Ruby is going to get the shit kicked out of her. That would fall in line with what Miles said. But when it seems like everything is fucked, Ironwood is going to show up somehow, and save her. This is RWBY, for all we know he could secretly packing some sort of rocket boost or his semblance could be the most convienient thing ever. He's the only one who could save her at this point.

The rest of the team is down at Beacon, and don't even know where the hell she is. They don't seem to be in that much of a rush to get to her either, as they trust in her abilities. And it wouldn't be the first time.

Vol 1: Penny saved the day and looked OP.

Vol 2: CFVY saved the day and looked OP.

Vol 3: Ironwood? I'm not understanding what you're getting at. Could you explain?
