Anyway they wouldn't be completely justified as it was Team RWBY and Winter who made Vacuo a target to flee to, so It wasn't by the people's choice.

Yeah no they arnt bringing Pyrrha back. The voice actress said she wouldn't play Pyrrha unless they basically made her like Salem and made her evil Grimm version. I can assure you there will be no brining Pyrrha back.
I do know we are gonna have a good amount of hatred between Vacuo people and the people of Atlas/Mantle

I wouldn't be so sure of that. My own prediction is that the show is going to kill off both Yang and Weiss, then Sun Wukong will join the team with the two surviving girls. Team RBS will let them cash in on a lucrative Arby's advertising contract.

Another problem was that the cast constantly lied to him, betrayed his trust, and not once extended the same courtesy to him that he gave them.

One thing I would change is Ironwoods semblance. Instead of something that that is better used as a character trait, I'd give him the ability to detect threats. He intuitively knows just how much danger there is in a situation. The problem is that his semblence can be fooled by feints and Salem is smart enough to be able to use it against him.
Bringing in the Atlas army to vale would have been prescient on his part, and would have been the right move if it weren't for his robot army having shit security. If he could sense that Vale would be hit by an invasion, and Salem knew that he would be able to, suddenly the whole plan makes sense on both side.
It would also fit his personality perfectly, he is a man that deals with danger by facing it head on. The ultimate superpower he could wish for is the ability to always know where the danger is so that he can put himself between it and the innocents.

I mean, kudos to you for being able to find enjoyment is something so horrifically terrible, but I've said it before, and I'll say it again; fuck this show. Fuck it right in the sphincter with a rusty chainsaw.
Dude.
Why watch do you watch it if you domt care for it?
At least this episode was well done, and not badly animated, not a huge mess. It has decent writing compared to other episodes

I don't; I haven't watched a full episode of this show since season 3. The most I've seen of seasons past that have been from reviews and critiques of the show. I dropped RWBY for a number of reasons, but if I had to pick just one thing that pissed me off the most, it would be the fact that they killed off Penny, Pyrrha, and Torchwick (with chopping off Yang's arm running a close second). Killing off characters is something I have always hated to see.
Oh trust me.
I hate killing of characters.
What I seem to have to get across when people say this.
Pyrrha was planned to die from the day the hired Jen Brown to voice her.
That aspect of volume 3 was always planned ahead of.
That's right, it was the great Monty's plan to kill of Pyrrha.
In fact, from what I gather having talked to cast and crew. Vol 1 through 3 were basically all of Monty's plans.
The show had its up and downs. 4 and 5 were....
The worst of the series with 6 7 and definitely 8 being a major improvement.
I get character deaths are never wanted, but woth a few exceptions, they have improved on how they go about it.
I am done with my argument fir it. Just wanted to put my two cents in.

See, to me, the issue wasn't the killing off of or maiming of characters. But it was the failure to follow up on it meaningfully. There's no real examination of the characters reacting to the Fall of Beacon, the death of people they knew or Yang losing her arm. It doesn't carry near the weight it should.
What we do get is rushed and half-assed- not to mention the various retcons that got crammed in to appeal to a vocal minority of shippers. Not to mention the fact that JNR takes exactly the wrong lesson from Pyrrha's death and that Penny gets brought back...only to kill her off again. There's the hack-job villainization for Ironwood because of reasons, Cinder's rather lackluster back story. The fact that Salem is literally Ozpin's evil ex-wife with the motivation of a bad shonen villain, with the former being something I remember people JOKING about as a possibility prior to that reveal and the Emerald's half-ass 'redemption'.
The show just kept adding more and more characters to the main team instead of focusing more on the ones we already had. Why even add Maria when you could have had Qrow (or Ospin, if you really want to include Oscar) teaching RWBY about the Silver Eyes? Why not have Ruby actually have to struggle and practice to learn how to use them instead of just being a super-weapon that naturally conforms to her existing personality? Why even have JNR stick around past V5? Sending them to Vacuo to help guard the Relic there would have been a great way to meaningfully get them out of the story. And I could go on for days about how the characterization of the main characters has been dulled and smoothed, removing much of what made them interesting to watch.
On a final note, one of my biggest issues was how instead of the characters getting stronger as the series goes on, the world just got weaker so they'd have an easier time. Not to mention the hilariously bad issue RWBY-the-show-has with show-don't-tell. And, at least to me, that when the show should have used the opportunity to wow us as the setting opened up and we left Beacon, Remant feels... empty and bland.
You mean how "everyone got weaker" for our heros only to get thier assess kicked

And when was that again? Not in V4, 5, 6 or 7. This is RT trying far too late to course correct and even then I bet it will not stick. No more then Yang ‘dying’ will.
They got thier asses kicked plenty of times before this time

I've said before that the winning strategy to making a good Star Wars film is to have George Lucas do the worldbuilding and have an intern with a cattle prod zap him if he tries to touch the dialogue. I feel pretty much the same about Monty Oum who was a treasure when it came to tightly scripted fight scenes but should have been kept well away from plot writing, it just wasn't his strong suit.
Miles and Kerry and a few of the other writers are pretty good.
They sometimes listen to the FNDM instead of the actual fans. Aka Bumblebee.
But Pyrrhas death was planned from day 1. Jen Briwn confirmed this.
