I Honestly have some issues with rwbys stats on any vs discussion site (mainly because so many people seem hellbend on downplaying them even lower) But there is One stat on here that REALLY annoys me.
Why is Yang only listed as average?
Look i know that no One seems to Care about intelligence in vs debates (i cant recall the last time this was a deciding factor) but i Really feel like Yang is being done dirty here.
Her "hothead" attitude is far from a Problem by now and even then there we're like Two times in V1 to V3 where she was Really furious to the point she lost control against neon and Adam. And its Not like she was unskilled before she trained again with tai (who actually trained her before)
Also lets look at other examples of her intelligence: -she uses her semblance more strategically (See her rematch with adam) -the second she finds out how Adams semblance works she avoids hitting his sword and her Next big attack even allows her to disarm him, implying that she immediatly realised his weakness and put herself in a Position where she could take advantage of it -she build Ember celica (Yang and Ruby went to the same combat school and Ruby said everyone had to build their own weapons there and given that her gauntlets Design is actually genius given that it doesnt end up blasting her hands of i think that should count for something) -she uses Ember celica to propel herself in different directions during combat and become faster and more unpredictable. In General it is One of the few weapons to actually enhance a existing fighting style instead of there being a style based around it -she likely was the One to modify her arm with a gun given that i doubt every prostethic in Atlas comes with a gun... -she was the ONLY ONE to find out the truth about the Spring Maiden within a few discussions -she was chosen to represent her team in the Vytal Festival Finals which should speak volumes about her fighting ability compared to her teammates. -she is the only one who never struggles with school work in her team and she knew about Mountain glenn -lets also compare that to Sun wukong who is listed as above average in intelligence and One of the reasons there being that gun Chucks allow him to always have a weapon in Hand. What about you literally being needed to DISARMED to get you away from your weapon? Because that is what Yangs gauntlets are -she also seems to be good at research and intimidation if we can Take that away from her trailer -also if i recall right she is the only one of her team to get to Beacon the legitimate way? Ruby got it as a present, Blake took some other Deal, weiss was probably recommended? Yang used the old school way.
So Yeah given all of that i think Yang should be at Gifted or at least High.
