All depends on your point of view.

Subtlety, superior stealth, unusual and unexpected abilities.

They were, but too powerful in the eyes of many.

Think of the legends about ninja, berserkers, and the like, people who could
push their bodies beyond sane human limits. They can take some o fthe same
roles as samurai, but don't have the heavy reaction abilities of the street
sam. But they can out-stealth him, and outdo him in melee combat, among other
things. Some perform more like AD&D thieves, others simply boost their
attributes and fighting skills, etc...
