^Not to mention it isn't too early to kill Cinder off. She was the main villain for 3 volumes, and a secondary villain for 2. There is this trope called the Disc 1 Boss, and they tend to die around the halfway point. And seeing as the CRWBY estimate the main story will be 10-12 volumes long, we're right about at the half way point.... CRWBY's estimate was and always has been 20+ seasons, 10-12 is the fan based estimate given because CRWBY initially made this claim when the episode lengths were halved, but since the Writers still claimed 20+ in an RTX after V4, that is still the CRWBY estimate Oh, my bad.

My point being, Cinder dying isn't too early. To be frank, this is how I see Team WTCHS in terms of Tropes:

Big Bad: Salem

Dragons: Tyrian and Watts

Evil Genius: Watts

Brute: Hazel

Dark Chick: Cinder
