Should I keep my semblance as is? Or should I change it.

Hello! Now before I just ask bluntly some history on why I am having second thoughts about this. my RWBY OC was originally created after re watching volume 1&2 with some friends before volume 3. We wanted to be called team ARKE -Ark- however after finding out about the color name rule -thank you RWBY wiki-

We became team KARE -Carmine-

However after recent events in RWBY I noticed something about my guy semblance, it feels rather lackluster and... rather uninspired even though I created it to fit his fighting style..

It was combo of spider-sense and enhanced reaction time while his semblance was active, making him a very mobile person to battle. However seeing as aura in RWBY makes this a rather moot power... I feel like I need to change it in some fashion..

Now I know semblances are suppose to be unique and there is some crossover -Blake, sun, flint- but they have there own take on it. Now to help cross out some ideas..

Our K- Can redirect momentum as long he has physical contact

The A- Can teleport within line of sight -she is a Faunus

And the E- can control wind in a few ways, enhanced jumps, push grimm away, redirect shots fired at him, and can create whirlwinds - however he burns out Aura faster than any of us... and not the best fighter-

I always like the idea of simple powers than very complex powers. As when its simple it allows one to be more creative, where as in complex powers it tends to be very strict and can be very "Easy" to win battles.

From what seen in RWBY semblances are at beast a good assist power not a main combat choice.

But thank you for reading this/helping me think of new ideas.

-Yes English grammar is my main weakness.
