I thought of Cinder more as like Arkham from Devil May Cry 3. In terms of her own natural power, she's nothing special, so she compensates by manipulating more powerful people so she can gain power herself, she's not the king in chess, she's that one low level party member in an RPG having the other members tank for her while she grinds for EXP. And like Arkham, she makes the mistake of getting full of herself and underestimating the true extent of the combined might of all the people she's been manipulating
