What am I saying, I sound like I hate the guy. Now I don't think he'll be the most impressive combatant, but  think he'll surprise us somehow. The students at Beacon were selected, so he must be good enough to gain the boards attention. I said this on a different thread, but I think that Jaune is going to be the average-guy people's hero of RWBY. Just a (comparatively) normal guy, with no elaborate weapons or fighting techniques, but he'll eventually learn to use them effectively and become a badass.
