[@aserodriguez1425]

Kimberly needs more damage and a few other things fixed but especially her spray cans. Her cans need to hit no matter what, if your near it when it explodes it should hit your opponent period...... I don't like that it doesn't do anything to your opponent at all if your getting hit or punished in any way during the explosion. I mean EVEN IF YOUR OPPONENT IS LITERALLY RIGHT ON TOP OF IT WHILE THEY ARE HITTING YOU IT WILL DO NOTHING TO YOUR OPPONENT. It's supposed to be a cool set up option, If you drop a can it should STILL hit them knocking them out of whatever their doing and giving you back the turn and giving you a pop up for a following combo. That's how it should work cuz honestly you don't see anyone really use it not even the best Kim players in the world and it's dumb because it's literally one of her main tools but it's JUST NOT WORTH THE RISK AND IS pretty much POINTLESS. Even doing that will make her better by giving her much better pressure set ups.
