User blog comment:Gundam Legilis/It's Brawl In The Family In Depth/@comment-4367432-20151117062916

For the fight yeah, what stood out for me was how stiff and jerky Qrow and Winter were whenever they clashed blades and how the close ups and shorter cuts also making it feel less fluid than some of the previous fights.

I really like Qrow as a character, since he's a drunk cocky bastard in a show like RWBY. But the moment he had with Ruby was really cute too, can't wait to see the family interact more.

If Cinder is rigging the matchups, she is obviously confident enough that Mercury and Emerald will win or further whatever goal they have in mind. If it means beating Coco and Yatsu, I'm thinking that they'll just get beaten off screen or skip to the end, which will save time animating and get the point that Mercury and Emerald are strong across. Since I can't really see a well thought out fight between them where they don't have Coco and Yatsu getting worfed really hard, or Mercury and Emerald winning with an asspull.
