Lin: Please, don't talk with Thunder about redemption arcs. He's been whinning and complaining for months about that, providing the same arguments over and over again, and generally acting like a spoiled brat whenever the topic come's up. For everyone's sake, please don't discuss it with him.

As for Adam being weakened...I disagree. He didn't decrease in skill. When you think about it, we never saw Adam fighting people on his level or higher on equel terms. Take a look at everyone we saw him beat.


 * Outdated robots that were being replaced.
 * Blake when she was clearly in emotional distress and therefore couldn't think or fight clearly.
 * Unarmed civillains and students.
 * Sienna Khan when she was taken off-guard and didn't have her aura activated.
 * A single Creep, which are pretty low-tier Grimm.
 * White Fung grunts, the lowest-ranking one's, which he took by surprise.
 * Yang when she was low on Aura and rushed into battle without a second thought.
 * A bunch of random racists who had crappy weapons and no armor, and probably no training.

In all battles where Adam was victorious, he was either fighting goons way below his level, had the element of surprise or some other situation that gave him the upperhand. The battle against Blake and Yang was the first and only battle we ever saw him struggle. So while his true skill is hard to guess, its safe to assume he isn't as powerfull as the average Huntsman as some to think.

As I said before, if we claim Adam is a great fighter based on what we've seen, its like claiming a bear is a strong beast because it can take down a rabbit. Its not impressive.
