It wasn't that the Grimm the good guys fought were weak as hell, it's just that Port had already killed all the powerful ones! Now you're getting it! He let Team RWBY, CFVY and JNPR think that the ones they were fighting were the main force, in order to help the machinations of Ozpin continue, by making it look like Ozpin was being incompetent and that kids had to step in to save the city, Ironwood becomes the head of security, with everything going according to plan as Cinder thinks, but in reality, Ozpin knows everything and is letting her think it's all going as planned! No wonder he respects Ozpin, the man truly does not lead them astray! He's a genius! The reason that Port even showed up was to show he'd done something, but in a reasonably believable manner, people will believe he's past his prime and is only joining in because the situation calls for it, and they remain unaware that he is an incredibly powerful hunter! With him with Oobleck and Glynda, people instead believe he simply picked off stragglers while they did the heavy lifting, thus continuing the deception!

And when you think about it, Ozpin is the Ship-Wizard, and thus years of manipulating students into various pairings that are widely accepted has made him a chessmaster! Another reason for the chess themes!
