And given how Blake was a member of the when she learned how to fight, her fighting style was likely designed for combatting humans rather than grim. Hence the reason she doesn't do so well against anything larger than an Ursa, and the only opponent that she had trouble defeating who was smaller than an Ursa was Torchwick, everything else that she has faced within that sized range she has utterly defeated, hell maybe if we look back at the footage of her fighting the droids we could maybe claim she has killed everything smaller than an ursa with one move, except for Torchwick! Remember she's at beacon to learn how to use her skills to help, she's likely just begining to learn how to use her skills to fight grim.

As for Weiss being powerful that has to do that she is vytal's equivalent to a mage at this point. She can unleash huge powerfull attacks but tends to have less vitality then the others. Even Juane is less winded then she is at the end of Players and Pieces despite the fact that it was likely his first experience at anything that would be exausting. The only person who is almost as winded as her is Ren who took out two baskilisk all by himself and got slamed into the wall by the deathstalker.

As far as the teams goes RWBY is better fitted to become high speed damage dealers, while JNPR will likely be more akin to tank builds who can block and parry attacks that the members of team RWBY will have to dodge. Ren took on ONE king Taijitu, its one creature, two heads, and yes Ren (bless his soul) had all right to be winded. And as for JNPR being tanks.... look at Ren, he isnt very slow...
