Okay! Now we're talking my language. Violence.

Emerald is a problem IF you don't know she does hallucinations. If you know then you'll likely see thru it like with hypnosis or brainwashing. It takes will power to resisit. Like in Nikos' fight when she would sometimes see what we real even when Em was trying to ruin her vision. But yeah at least two against her is a safe bet.

Merc is a handful but all it takes is matching that speed. I agree Qrow could take him, but it could likely be hi standing still waiting for Merc and countering him. I like your idea with Weiss and Blake team up on him. That's a V.

Cinder is overrated. Maybe now that she has the Maiden power she's a big deal and it would take the adult to drop her. But without it, she uses glass. GLASS! Against people who ain't exactly throwing clay balls around. They use bullets and beams. But She is good and reworking the glass to move around targets. So if not for Glynda, IronW, and Qrow, then I'd get Winter switch in if any one of those 3 wasn't around.

Neo is one of my favorite fighting styles of the villains. I'm not sure that Torch was holding her back. You never know, with Torch gone, she might be enraged and get sloppy. Maybe even become a clumsy serial killer chasing after Ruby and Yang on some Jane the Ripper shit.

Tyrian losing to Tai seem odd. What do we know about Tai in a fight. Wise, yes. Skilled, yes. But can he stand up to the madness that is Tyrian. Qrow wasn't phased, but Tai might give pause. What if Tyrian started saying crazy stuff to throw him off his game? Like talking about how he hurt Ruby? Head games to win. But yeah. He's a weak range fight, Glynda just needs someone to keep him away and he'll get demolished by her.

No idea how able one would be able to actively resist Em's semblance, or what factors may go into resisting it.

Thought we were talking current, past Cinder is irrelevant and far easier to take down relatively speaking. Winter switching for one of them would lower the odds slightly, but still work.

One of the directors, Miles I believed, reckoned Neo would be far more dangerous if she didn't look up to Roman so much. Him out of the picture, that thought can now be put into practice.

Not just Tai, I'm saying if Qrow alone can stalemate him, than having someone team with somebody, Tai for example who was a past team mate, would tip the balance in their favor and win the fight.
