How could the third sub-classes play differently? (Destiny)

I'm at a loss for this. The current classes/sub-classes cover some very important niches found in other FPSs and RPGs. What niches haven't been covered that could be filled with other subclasses?

Striker - In-your-face melee mayhem
Defender - Protector of objective
Gunslinger - Sharpshooter
Bladedancer - Sneaky hobittses
Voidwalker - Powerful magics
Sunsinger - Unstoppable fires of destruction/support

If we think about other games, there aren't many classes that don't fit one of those six roles. How could Bungie make the new sub-classes unique and make you want to play them. Is there a role that you want to play that isn't covered by one of these classes/sub-classes?
