Those dust upgrades Blake had made all the difference against Torchwick, he didn't expect them at all, he probably figured it'd be the same as when he fought both Blake and Sun at the same time. Torchwick is a pretty damn competent fighter for a regular dude, but at the end of the day he's just that, a regular dude with no special semblance skullduggery to fall back on. Heck its debatable if he even has aura or not, I think he does given some of the crap he's survived, but we've had no visible evidence of it. I like how he keeps his cool even when his plans are falling apart.

I got Neo's semblance, you can tell its activated by her irises being different, which signifies that she is manipulating the image the world sees or maybe the people she is fighting sees which is why she doesn't speak because it would give away the effect she has on the perceived image, the eyes show the image manipulation is being used, first as a weakness so it's not overpowered, but also because she wouldn't be able to make the image perfect with how the world is constantly changing around them

[@pyromaniac2104]

I think I finally figured out why weiss loses every fight. It's because she's not prepared for underhanded tactics look at when the white Fang member grabs her, her eyes are pretty firmly focused on the chainsaw to make sure she doesn't have to defend so she's entirely unprepared for his sudden change in tactics. if you look at the parts of the fight before she gets grabbed she's actually doing pretty well he only wins because he starts fighting dirty. like seriously think about it, every time weiss loses a fight it's always too underhanded tactics (I mean feel free to correct me on that but still you can't deny that's why she loses most of the time)

[@KyranSparda]

Very interesting to see Yang wasn't able to use her semblance against Neo. Yang semblance is based on storing energy from opponent's attack and blasting it back, but Neo didn't use her energy to attack her. Instead, she was using Yang's momentum to drive her back. Therefore Yang has no energy to store because it's basically her own energy. Besides, Yang's gauntlet attacks were meant to kill Grimm, hand to hand combat is very hard to kill another human being. Yang had no intend of killing Neo, only defeating her. But all that changes when Raven appeared, she meant business. Of all the dust blades, ice to immobilize, lightning to stun, wind to dodge/elevate, stone to block/defend, she chose fire to burn & kill. Raven wasn't there to defeat, she was there to kill, and she chose a fresh blade for Neo. That's a fucking warning.

Take notes, Battle of Haven, this is how you do a large scale battle. You’ve got tons of heroes and villains with varying skill levels going toe to toe, so of course it’s going to be a chaotic mess of victories and defeats. Neo defeats Yang, Blake defeats Torchwick, the White Fang guy defeats Weiss, and then Blake escapes with Weiss. Meanwhile, the Battle of Haven is an entire fight consisting of the good guys and bad guys being in a stalemate with nobody going down for 20 minutes until Raven manages to defeat Cinder in a skirmish completely disconnected from the rest of the fight and snag the relic, making the bad guys retreat instead of continuing the fight because nothing had actually changed other than that the good guys had the macguffin now. (Seriously, why did they retreat? Cinder hadn’t been contributing to the fight anyway, and now Yang’s down an arm. I can understand Emerald and Mercury not being terribly invested in the fight with Cinder presumed dead, but for the love of god Hazel was there.) Also, you know, in the train battle most of the fighting is actually on screen.

bruh this is so crazy that we’re approaching volume 8 this year! (if corona doesn’t halt production too far) i’ve been watching this show since 8th grade and now i’m approaching my sophmore year of college! crazy how time flies 😭

[@mstrmalachite3399]

There was no reason for weiss to lose this fight.

[@Rhiorrha]

How is it this series doesn't have a sidescrolling brawler, or a traditional fighting game?

[@Tobbit]

Rhiorrha Well about that... :P

Rhiorrha and how they now have an Apple game that’s called RWBY

[@StoogesFan]

Weiss fought the WF Lieutenant better than Yang fought Neo

[@sharifbrown3567]

Neos the strongest person (besides Dr.Oobleck and Raven) on the train.

[@luxlumin6790]

Oh yeah I forgot. They knew how to fight and could fight alone to. Great thing they all suddenly got memory loss and a suddenly case of extra dialogue. Oh I also forgot Blake and Weiss didn't have punching bag syndrome. Hmmm how times have change.....

[@kikiblack9230]

yeah rip monty :(((

[@iammighty1]

I agree that Roman was taken by surprise with the dust semblance, but I don't think he really lost. I'm convinced he stops on purpose. I mean, the guy once had a blade to his throat and still got out of it. Yeah, he had his weapon there, but what's to stop him from sliding his foot to throw Blake off balance and grabbing it again. Instead, he just sort of gives up and lets Blake kick him. I feel as if he isn't fighting seriously in this encounter. Then I also remember he's a survivor type. There's no way out of this, and the train will crash. So, he chooses to let Blake hit him and he just "plays possum" until she leaves. Then gets back up and then uses the rest of his aura to survive the train crash. It's probably then he decides to let Emerald and Mercury take him to get arrested so he can be broken out by Neo later. The way he says "Well, it's about time" in volume 3 episode 9, it's like he was expecting Neo to get to him. And what better way for Cinder to implant a virus on Atlas tech than a guy who's already on board with piloting skills?

[@PriscilaAlves590]

Neo is so small, awnn, I love her

[@beestek.94]

When Weiss still knew how to fight melee. I feel like Weiss or Blake might be a better match to Neo than Yang in this fights.

[@oniuserjh]

i miss this kind of action...rip monty i hope they eventual get someone of equal skill to animate the show otherwise i just cant watch the new seasons ;__;

Well she only won because of the dust, if not for that it would have ended just like the volume 1 final fight

[@bdlbug6]

I'd love to see a rematch between Yang and Neo, now that Yang's upgraded her fighting style.

[@noox13]

Until then BlazBlue is a good second.

[@sharifbrown3567]

If it was V6 Yang vs V2 Neo, Yang would win, now, it's about even.

[@maze9761]

Her eye color is kind of based on her emotions. She saw that her life was in danger so her eyes turned white. This would make sense because she's a mute.

[@jaylayungbaddy4823]

Team rwby are still under trained and neo was a full huntress and only got better so yang would get destroyed still, that’s like saying yang can beat cinder, not even Pyrrha could do that haha

[@ht82smash42]

Best fights of the series, by far.

[@darklily1246]

I like Yang when she woke up like it's nothing like she forgot Neo knock her up LOL

Not quite hiatus. We're heading closer to the finale for Volume 2, more specifically.

[@justanidiotontheinternet6365]

Quick reminder that Neo is doing all of this IN HEELS

Best fight in RWBY, easily! Everything is perfect!
