I'm just glad they chose someone who it makes sense for them to be a Guardian. Like, Jaune was the crowd favourite (apparently) but that would be a stupid decision because he's got no real experience beyond half a year of Beacon. Ruby was the obvious choice, but really she's only 15 and still has a lot to learn.

Pyrrha on the other hand has tons of experience, being a four-year champion from Mistral and the top of her combat classes at Beacon, able to defeat a team of four on her own. She's also shown herself to be everything a Huntress should be; kind, caring, intelligent, driven. A good teacher and a good listener, able to think for herself and able to follow orders where necessary. She is the logical choice.

And now I can't help but think that Ozpin may be choosing her, but she may fail at some point for some reason and another person Ozpin and Co didn't even consider will step up to the plate and do a better job.
