Blake vs. Cardin -- Based on her reaction to Roman, Cardin could end up with more than broken legs. Cue more Blake development, probably tied into someone else's development.

Pyrrha vs. Penny -- Magnets + circuitry does not sound good.

Above all though, I just hope Blake finally gets the fight she deserves, with anyone really. Oh, and I anticipate Ruby getting a reality check in the form of a swift defeat. Huh... Ruby getting soundly defeated WOULD be interesting. Perhaps:

Qualifying Round: Yang gets nearly killed in her first tournament match against Penny leaving her seriously wounded for the first few episodes. The rest of find themselves easily handling their opponents though Jaune has a minor struggle with his qualifier.

Round 1: Ruby swears revenge for Yang only to find herself swiftly defeated by the regiional champion from Atlas (let's call him Vegeta because why not) in the second round. Meanwhile Blake comes face to face with Cardin and Nora is Penny's next victim.

Quarter-Finals: The quarter finals come down to: Blake, Weiss, Penny, Pyrrha, Jaune, Vegeta and the Malachite Twins. Here Pyrrha is Penny's next victim whilst Weiss is defeated by Vegeta. Blake and Jaune advance together after a tag team match-up against the Malachite Twins..

Semi-Finals: Jaune vs. Penny, for some reason I really like the idea of Jaune being scared of Penny after seeing her tear through who may be the two best fighters in RWBY and JNPR (Yang and Pyrrha respectively). He would hold out quite well but ultimately fail to defeat the rogue android. Meanwhile Blake would manage to overcome Vegeta in a hard-fought contest. Vegeta is not a dick though so he would shake Blake's hand, because he has style like that.

Finals: It's now come down to the most unlikely of finals. Penny, the psychotic super android versus Blake. Blakes shadow-clones and speed versus Penny's telekinetically controlled swords would be the key here with Penny not being programmed to recognise the differences in the two objects. Blake would be cheered on primarily by Ruby, Pyrrha, Yang and Jaune. Weiss, Sun and Adam, the latter of whom is looking on from the shadows could all be scared to death with worry about her safety. However she does it. She hacks Penny into a set of limbs, a torso and a head and is called the victor and the Champion of Vytal.

The Aftermath: Everyone seems partial to the possibility of Penny being brought back to life, and most believe it would be at the hands of Ruby. Well... imagine the reactions of Yang, Pyrrha and Jaune, whom Penny nearly murdered in a friendly competition, and especially the reaction of Blake, whom fought tooth and nail with Penny and literally ended up needing to dissect her in a dangerous battle that nearly got her killed, when they find out that Ruby, despite seeing what Penny was capable of before, rebuilt her anyways as a "friendly" robot...
