Well, so far, we haven't seen a lot of teamwork from team RWBY. I think that the fact that they seem so invincible now has to do with the fact that RT and Monty are trying to make sure that the fans know: team RWBY is a well-coordinated group of very powerful individuals who know how to work together. They want us to get the sense that team RWBY has grown since volume 1. I suspect that, when it's time for the enemies to stop being ominous background characters and start being a legitimate threat, then the team's going to get a harsh wake-up beating.

I do agree that they seem untouchable at this point in the story, but with all the foreshadowing going on for the villains, I suspect that'll change. I'm personally hoping that Adam shows up and solos team RWBY, but I'd be fine if they get beat another way.
