Well if you analyse the context in the chapter it's used in, Baam (or the thorn, we're not really sure) just hit the invisible scout without the help of a lightbearer or scout, did hand to hand against the "Hendo" guy, and then shot shinsoo at the flying guy.

To me that means he won in different situations, regardless of his usual/prefered fighting style. So clearly it's B. Yeah maybe my analogy is a little flawed, it was just to illustrate an expression doesn't mean any "litteral" attribute, hence, no "threshold", just that it seems this guy can win fights in all situations. And yes, usual "positions" have their perks and their flaws: Spear bearers are long range fighters, and are less effective the closer the range of the fight gets. Wave controllers, I believe, are supposed to be generally weak physically (like mages in usual RPGs), scouts are supposed to be great in the resistances stats, meaning they shouldn't offer much in the offense department, fishermen are usual fighter types, balanced and effective in short/medium range, but don't bear spears cause they are too heavy (in the shinsoo I guess), and don't have the same control of shinsoo than a wave controller, hence aren't quite as good at long range warfare.

Obviously, individuals seem to most of the time be proficient in more aspects than their designated positions, but that means that a "true fisherman" is a one-man team in a way, and can't be beaten in a compatibility/elemental weakness kind of scenario (à la pokemon, or usual RPGs).
