Added DiffLines:

* GroundPound: Yang's Burst Semblance is this, triggering her power, then striking the ground. The normal version can be used to destroy boulders while the Burst+ not only destroys steel blocks, but also sends out a wave of energy that damages everyone on that floor.


Added DiffLines:

* MesACrowd: Blake's Shadows Semblance is this like in canon. These allows her to draw in foes and attack them from a safe spot and even be used to trigger pressure plates. Shadows+ allows her to create two of them at once.
