Hmm...how would a semblance connected to Pressure go?

Its off-set by having it only limited to very very close range,like only at hands & feet-length.

Its use offensively would be very limited by,lets say,aura protection("increasing" the pressure in one's body to ohko them would be blocked becuase of one's aura,etc so no insta-kill attacks there) + the short range. But defensively at its peak? It fits more as a "counter" to powerful charged attacks. Kind of like"uncompressing the beam via decreasing the pressure,indirectly increasing the area thus the damage is more spread so instead of an attack that the owner would eat solidly,there'd be some minor damage but most of it is split as the beam's energy is more spread out towards left and right.",etc.

It would hard counter the likes of a charged beam attack (like Penny's charged up laser),but its meh against large numbers of projectiles(like bullets).Normal attack-wise,it would be notorious against slow blunt attacks BUT nigh useless against sharp reappliable attacks like from a Rapier.

User-wise,it would allow the owner to increase the "pressure" of their attacks,meaning it would synergize with piercing attacks(think: Ice Pick-like knife + Flechettes for range).Thus fitting more as a tank killer/armor buster.

Against magnetism incase a certain someone wants to try "magnetizing" the knife away,well there's this thing i read when googled:

"Scientists have discovered that the magnetic strength of magnetite—the most abundant magnetic mineral on Earth—declines drastically when put under pressure."

So..yeah...that prodigy could still kick the owner's ass easily cause of pure skill though.

Owner would be horrible against PVP,average/below average against normal grimm(would clear very slowly compared to the others),but scales hard against tanky ones. Ditto on robots.

Teamfight wise(Requires to be next to the one charging the beam): Beam attack+ compressed via pressure aka 100% focused piercing beam=Absolute Lulz(Good against single targets,horrible vs alot of enemies that arent in a straight line). Think of pouring alot of water with a funnel. Or reverse,if beam attack owner is against alot of fodder(read: Grimms),then indirectly decreasing area by increasing pressure so the AoE would be very large. I admit that this part would be very versatile(replace beam with allied hammer,etc).

And before anyone asks,owner would be Weiss-tier in endurance + stamina so a very soft squishy.
