Weaknesses

 * Abilities and Skills
 * Still young and inexperienced
 * Not very skilled fighting against opponents whose fighting style revolves around kicks as well as opponents who are adept at dodging attacks
 * Yang can still get knocked out, despite her endurance
 * Was knocked down by Neopolitan
 * Was unconscious after her arm got cut off by Adam
 * Her semblance can be deactivated if she calms, drops her guard, bleeds, gets depleted and it was shown during Pyrrha's fight with Cinder, Semblances cannot be used once aura has been completely depleted
 * Yang's Semblance only activates after Yang suffers damage; meaning initially Yang begins her duels at her weakest and it has limits, making her a glass cannon
 * Also since damage makes Yang's stronger; Yang is at her strongest only after she suffered severe damage.
 * Strong / deadly damage can overpower her semblance
 * Despite her semblance, her speed is no more than normal
 * Personal
 * Her emotions and temper often lead her to enter dangerous situations without thinking or act irrationally. Yang is reckless, hot headed and impulsive; charging into enemies if they harm her friends (or Yang's hair).
 * Which led the cost of right her arm to try to save Blake
 * A bit of a Tomboy
 * Sometimes a bit overconfident and cocky when taking fights lightly, unless necessary
 * Like her mother, she is stubborn
 * Yang prefers to solve almost every obstacles in her way in brawn's way and relies on absorbing damage for her semblance to get the upper hand
 * Currently suffers from PTSD from the loss of her arm
 * Has deliberately allowed herself to take damage to power up

Losses / Inconclusives

 * Was bested by Neopolitan in combat (Because she was fighting monsters for a whole day with little rest)
 * Her victory over Mercury in their first match was due to him holding back
 * Yang passed out from shock after her arm got cut off by Adam (Yang was defeated)

Trivia

 * Yang Xiao Long is the first character to appear in Death Battle to not originate from comic books, books, video games, TV shows, movies and anime/manga.
 * She's also the first Web show character to be featured in Death Battle.
 * Yang is the first character in DEATH BATTLE! to be voiced by their official voice actor.
 * Episode 54 drew considerabl negativity with many claiming that the fight was rigged and the victory was given to Yang because of ScrewAttack merging with RoosterTeeth. However it has been stated by RoosterTeeth that they had no interest in who won the fight. Ben Singer did confirmed that the episode served in part as a promotion for Rwby V3 but says this did not effect the end result. Whether it was rigged or not is still disputed and the episode is not fondly remembered by many in the fandom, with various blogs and forums describing it as the worst episode and claiming they have correctly done the math that disproves the outcome
