(Original) Even then, analyzing what Blake's weapon has actually cut shows how sharp the weapon truly is. It was able to slice through solid steel as if it were butter and Gambol Shroud was still capable of stabbing the heavily armored spider droid. Not to mention Blake hates Torchwick with all her heart. And hate can easily transfer into power, making her strikes all the more deadly.

Although you have a point about Torchwick being a planner. I guess another theory about Torchwick could possibly be he had no aura in Black and White, but as Torchwick states "These kids keep getting weirder and weirder" It would probably be a better idea to even the playing feild by having an aura himself. Torchwick might have a knowledge of aura as his partner Neo seems to have it and Cinder, Mercury, and Emerald also have an aura.

We also have to keep in mind that Torchwick PLANNED to lose, meaning that he probably did have extra armor in the form of aura. Another thing to note is when Blake attacked Roman, "Energy shards" of some kind emerged after Roman was hit. His chest was also not the only thing that was slashed, but his face was as well. The plan also seemed to involve exploding a hole into Vale for the grim to get in, so the train crashing into the wall was part of the plan, and consider Roman was unconcious for that part well...It would be fairly difficult for him to survive that.
