The Games We Play (RWBY fanfic)/Awesome

• Many of Jaune's early fights, when he's still growing into his power and cannot simply call down the wrath of Heaven upon his opponents, are often amazing exchanges of strike and counterstrike, tactic and counter-tactic, with an uncertain Jaune working like hell to pull out a trick that will turn the tide and give him the victory. His battles with Penny and Pyrrha, for instance.

• The extended "spar" between the Arc siblings, complete with incredibly overpowered attacks on all sides and deliberate overacting by those who've been taken out of the competition.

• Adam gets a Moment of Awesome in his interlude, when he defeats a Humbaba with a single strike after using its attack on him as a Power-Up.

• Jaune's final battle (in this story, at least) with Malkuth, where even though he still hasn't entirely returned to where he was as Keter thousands of years earlier, he still manages to surprise the other Archangel, force him to fight seriously -- and ultimately beats him.
