The problem for me is that the way he does this is done poorly. He is calm and collected at parts but at other times, it turns way over into his head. We see him progress as a dangerous character bent on destroying Blake's life. That was to create conflict in vol 3 but it seemed out of place in later volumes, especially when the conflict is blaming on Adam's side entirely without knowing why he is like that today.I'm not disappointed at all tbh..
He was always in control of situation and always have some sort of advantage here everything he got was slowly taken away from him and he charge like enraged Bull ( His faunus trait :P ) but once he was a litle more collected and choose to run away ( what would be the point of him fighting against Blake/Sun/Ilia/Police/Ghira and Huntsman that was on the way there's no way he would win that ) and Blake aknowledge that even in duo with Sun they can't take him down << So I look forward to Yang and Blake vs Him..
As for Adam bringing only 10/12 people, it's an effect of Cinder altering original plans Adam couldn't attack with full force until Cinder will end with her goals so he brings small party to set up bombs ( Bombs probably would be the signal for the Army Ilia spoke about in Chapter 14 )
Though, I am glad he ran away instead of being arrested. But I do wonder how the writers will delve into his character because Blake's arc is "almost" done. (Almost meaning that there could be only one route they will take, and Adam would be in it)
