{{Yang's semblance, named Burn, allows her to absorb hits from her opponent and power herself up and send it back with even greater force. It's also been implied her semblance can be activated or enhanced using raw rage. Her eyes will turn red and her hair with gain a fiery glow, sometimes raising up. At it's absolute strongest it's been shown to destroy mechs.}}

{{While taking hits from an opponent vastly increases the power of her Semblance, Yang still takes damage in the process. Despite her high reserves of Aura, too many hits can deplete it completely, breaking her defenses and rendering her Semblance counterattack useless. Conversely, activating her Semblance too soon will also weaken her Aura's defenses in exchange for an under-charged counterstrike. Yang is also noted to be weak against kick-based fighting styles.}}

{{Fighters well-versed in dodging attacks can frustrate Yang, making her attacks predictable and easily avoided, which also renders the added power with her Semblance useless. The fact that she fights barehanded as opposed to using a melee weapon also limits the reach of her close-quarters attacks, enabling opponents with greater agility to evade her strikes.}}
