User blog comment:Forrestib/"Breach" was Brilliant, and Here's Why/@comment-4820209-20141031224430

I find there to be a massive difference, between creating a sense of false security, such as doing so to the Autobots in Transformers: Prime, and just completely wasting a "horribly powerful adversary that nearly pushed Humankind to extinction", while ALSO overusing the term "Deus Ex Machina".

RWBY and JNPR WASTED enemies that took them SO LONG to defeat in the last encounters, beforehand. I mean, RWBY couldn't even DENT a Nevermore with all their combined might, and weaponry, yet a minigun chews them down to the ground instantly, without problems? Yeah, no, I'll call faulty writing on that. Nora wrecking a Taijitu in ONE hit with a hammer, when it took all of Ren's power, to kill it by blowing its head off? No. THAT'S faulty writing. Lastly, and the one that annoyed me MOST: Jaune simply "hack and slashing" an Ursa MAJOR right to the ground, when previously, he LUCKED out and decapitated it, to kill it. You say RWBY is far from the best, yet they STILL destroyed or WERE destroying nearly everything in the immediate vicinity before JNPR and CFVY showed up.

The best way to create that "hierarchy" of security, in a sense, is to make a limit for the team, to which the others can be allowed to build on to establish their "place" in the chain as stronger or weaker, however, there really ISN'T a limit here. RWBY just takes on everything without hesitation, and the other mop up in the back.

"We were made to fear the horde of Grimm, and then promptly shown that to some Huntsmen, defeating similar hordes is little more than an annoyance.".

They seem like they're annoyances to EVERYONE, not just some. RWBY included. Ruby literally kicked down 20+ Beowolves in SECONDS while they SAT in her path. Weiss and Blake did the exact same with their respective powers, while Yang was the only one with difficulty, due to her dumb decision to jump off a new Grimm's head. Literally, that was the DUMBEST thing I've seen. Was she gonna try and travel to Atlas via Grimm Launch Pad? Like WTH?

I mean, there are no real "Weak" teams. RWBY, JNPR and CFVY are all on equal terms, realistically speaking at this time. Like, given time, RWBY would've been able to EASILY demolish the rest of the Grimm, as stated below, JNPR and CVFY's arrivals were really just overkill. They were weapon demonstrations, especially with CFVY.
