Passive - Aerial Dominance
Kimmy can move and aim in different directions when using her Spray Gun, but cannot lock on to a specific enemy. Kimmy's Spray Gun attack deals Magic Damage. Hitting enemy heroes restores Starlium. At max Starlium, Kimmy's Basic Attacks are enhanced to deal more damage and pierce through targets.
Skill 1 - Anti-Grav Thruster
Kimmy uses her jetpack to take flight, passing through terrain and gaining Movement Speed boost. During the flight, she fires Chemical Bolts at nearby enemies, dealing Magic Damage and slowing them.
Skill 2 - Starlium Beam
Kimmy fires a Starlium Beam in the target direction, dealing Magic Damage and immobilizing enemies in its path.
Ultimate - Traction Pulse
Kimmy charges and fires a Traction Pulse in a target direction. Upon hitting an enemy or reaching its max range, the Traction Pulse explodes, deals Magic Damage to nearby enemies, and creates a force field that slows down enemies within. After a short delay, the field contracts, pulling all enemies to its center.
Kimmy has been overperforming with the right equipment, so we're slightly reducing her damage.

When Kimmy's energy runs out, her Basic Attack will revert to normal Spray Gun attacks. You need to accumulate energy and release and hold the button again to shoot Chemical Bolts.
Now it's time for Marksmen to shine, Kimmy needs to be better prepared for the upcoming confrontation in the Gold Lane.
