That was me, also I meant refraction(change in the energy wave direction), not reflection, but its same thing basically. I think it's similar to what you said, but I mean it as a way to transfer the kinetic energy back to the person. Such as when Cardin tried to punch him, he got hurt and not Jaune. An example would be if Yang tried to punch or hit him he could essentially reflect the kinetic energy back to her and she'd send herself flying back. So it would fair best against melee-based opponents, which is most people in RWBY and most Grimm.
