I would still have expected Jellal, a master Mage, to realize when his own Magic has been nullified and command CrimeS to go physical a la Natsu vs. Franmalth. Now that could have been good, even if August ended up being dehyped for not sending CrimeS flying with a single Heat Pillar... or ended up taking out CrimeS quite easily anyway.

And I was commenting on Mashima's lack of any kind of sight rather than actually evaluating Jellal's intelligence. ._./
