I disagree. Without Pyrrha, Jaune would still be the weak boy we saw in Season 1. She teached him and helped him grow to be the best man he could be. Jaune even says to Pyrrha "You were the first person to ever believe in me." Yes, she may have been his cheerleader at times, but it was good for him. It made him believe he could be better than he was. Sometimes, you just need a little encouragement in life. I'm not saying Jaune found all of his strength through Pyrrha. Like they say, a soulmate doesn't make you better, you do that yourself because they inspire you. I know it's cheesy, but it's true. Pyrrha helped turn Jaune into the best Jaune he could be.

And I do see Pyrrha as a hero. She was willing to sacrifice everything just to make the world better. Her traits are seen very well actually. Even Ruby says "Pyrrha thought that if there was even the smallest chance of helping someone, then it was a chance worth taking. And because of that, she died fighting a battle she knew she couldn't win."
