Blake has no real weakness, and while she isn't very powerful, her strength doesn't come from power, and she is most effective as a hit and run tactical fighter, whittling down health little at a time. I feel like you argued against yourself here. No weaknesses, but she's not very powerful? and even without that someone who specializes in a hit and run tactic would likely have more trouble in a close quarters situation.

While she's probably physically stronger than Ruby without her weapon I don't imagine she would fare too much better. Yang is probably the only one who could manage without their weapon, and even then she'd probably still be significantly crippled. But I don't really think it's a fair point considering they all are fairly weapon reliant.

Giving them all they have though, I might agree that Blake is all around the strongest on RWBY. She should have the most experiance given her life.
