Please Improve Slade's Access to Shop#3

Slade’s shop is very difficult to access at times and it is incredibly unclear when Slade is able to access shop. I asked in the Rivals 2 Slade discord for examples of where players have had trouble accessing shop, and here Gleam provided an example with this to note:
“I didn’t change position at all relative to chest is what confuses me”.

From my own time playing this character, I have suffered the same issue, which is pretty frustrating given how commital of an animation the chest break animation is. There have been many times where I have been punished for trying to shop and committing to the chest break animation instead, because either A. it’s unclear when Slade is able to access the shop, and B., accessing the mechanic itself seems to be inconsistent when acting out of a movement option such as a dash, landing, wavedash, etc..

Possible suggestions would be improving the range of the shop, adding an indicator for when Slade is able to access shop (this could be something like the chest glowing with an aura or something of the sort, or an icon above the chest like an arrow), an audio cue, etc. I think a combination of these suggestions would go a long way

AGREED
