About Pyrrha vs Ruby fpr guardian. Another thing Pyrrha has that Ruby doesn't yet is fame.

Yang said their actions during the Breach incident were in the newspaper... but team RWBY were not alone containing it. PYRRHA was also there ans since she is already famous she probably received more attention than Ruby. If the Atlesian Army displayed didn't swallow all of it.

As for Pyrrha loosing affecting her career. .. I don't think so. Pyrrha seems to have a name big enough to have made it to even sport unrelated products. As long as she doesn't loose in the team or doubles round it shouldn't really matter. Let's also remember this is an international tournament and what she had been winning previously was a regional tournament.

Also notice the lack of presence of visible Pyrrha specific fans on the grades, as opposed to when SSSN and Coco fought. It's possible that Pyrrha chose Beacon to train to put some distance between her fame and herself as it was straining her.

There is also that when athletes get to a certain level of fame.... sponsors just keep them around regardless of how good or bad they are doing in their field. As long as they have the love of the people they can sell the product.
