As Cinder, Cinder used glas and fire dust, basically setting herself up as a mage with a preference to fire based attacks and hanging back.

In the tournament, Cinder used hand to hand fighting and didn't showcase any abilities with glass or fire or weapons, and set herself up as a monk type character.

In her spy outfit, Cinder used swords and a bow made from glass which she summoned using dust, and kept to mid range, and set herself up as an archer type.

Three very different fighting styles that meant no one could look at another of her 'disguises' and say 'wait, I know this fighting style'. The only one that would have been recognised would have been the spy outfit by Qrow, since he saw Cinder with her bowswords. No one else knew who she was.
