Ozpin, Lionheart... and now Ironwood? That honestly decreases the likelihood of him dying, in my mind. Some may see it as repetitive, but to me it's consistent with Salem's ultimate goals. Said goals include killing all of Ozpin's allies, which falls under tearing down all that he's built. Beacon fell, Haven is in shambles without a headmaster and most of its faculty, once Shade falls so does Vacuo since it's the only thing holding it together, Atlas may survive if Ironwood goes down, though they'll have to work hard and fast to find a suitable replacement. And in his current state of mind, I don't see him making it out of Volume 7 alive, sad to say.
