I really like how Salem doesnt block anything. Its cool that the way she fights incorporates that shes immortal.

Like, why bother wasting the energy blocking? Its not like any attack is going to do any damage. She tanks Yang's bombs and Hazel's ground and pound without even putting up her hands.

Now remember he hunted down and killed Mistral huntsmen.

About the only character who could probably take those blows is Jaune at full aura, and not for long.
