Not really, Blake's class is what makes her "appear" weak, she's essentially a ninja, which means she isn't supposed to suck agro, she is meant to kill from the shadows... which means her skills are best shown as a support character. If she was alone she would bear full responsibility of her actions, and likely be considered either an outright failure(if they showed her true skill level as a pre-first year student) or like a ridiculously OP Marty-Stu that picked up the Idiot-ball as soon as she entered beacon.

Adam makes her Sympathetic and allows her to show her skills without reasonably dying when she fails because unlike the others she is fighting opponents who should be trying to kill her without being complete mooks.(Yang's trailer being finished after Blake's and thus not entirely counting).
