I've wanted Miles to be properly trained in martial arts since he pulled off those Jackie Chan moves in Tokyo.
I like the Venom Boost idea! I would say maybe not having him paralyzing people when he hits them because it would make it too overpowered. It might also be something that he can only use in certain situations because it would take so much out of him and tire him out.
It reminds me of Killua from Hunter x Hunter
or the Raikage (Killer A)
Miles using an Izuna Drop against bigger, more durable villains would be fantastic.
If he charges them with Venom Blast, he could increase the damage. Something similar to this.
Sorry for the excessive posting, everyone. I'm only allowed three images per post, and the images illustrate what I'm talking about more effectively.

Indeed. I'd even love to see those bioelectric webs he was starting to generate at the end of Brian Bendis's overall run with Marvel make a comeback at some point. Use them as tethers and lashes somewhat similarly to a technique pulled off by Killer A and Killer B in the Naruto manga/anime against Kisame, or to extend the reach of his Venom Strike if he can't directly tag an opponent. Glad you like the Venom Boost idea, though, and your idea for Miles to be more creative with his webs and make those kinds of constructs you showed for martial arts would be great as well.
I'd love to see Way of the Spider come back, in that respect, though Peter would need a serious refresher course from Shang-Chi before passing it onto Miles, given his admission in the first issue of Shang-Chi's last solo that he hadn't kept up with his training since his spider-sense returned. While Way of the Spider initially stems from Shang-Chi's kung fu in the comics proper, I like how Insomniac Games have Peter's fighting style as Spider-Man resemble capoeira, which does make more sense for how fast, free-flowing, and acrobatic the Spider-Men's movements are. I'd even throw in a little Muay Thai as well, in light of how it's described as "The Art of the Eight Limbs," and how many legs does a spider have, after all?
The spider is always on the hunt.
That same fight also made me want to see Miles make use of a bo staff in fights too.
I was legitimately just thinking about Miles doing an Izuna Drop today after watching the trailer for the new SF6 character.
I can definitely see the energy webs coming back. If not in the comics first than in the game and then back in the comics, since the next game will likely be looking to add to Miles' combat style and as we've seen with this run the games can garner interest in adding to the comics.

Indeed. Having seen that new Street Fighter 6 trailer myself, I thought Juri would be my favorite just based on her spider motif, but Kimberly was quite spectacular . . . and was that her version of the Maximum Spider move she pulled when she was ricocheting back and forth around that guy as she was hitting him? If Marvel execs ever get their heads out of their @$$es and work something out with Capcom for a new (and better) MvC game than Infinite, I'd love to see Miles and Kimberly meet and team up, or even fight each other.

That's easy to set up, since they already know each other. Power Man is a member of the Champions.
That would make sense, if Gwen stays at ESU in 616, Miles graduates high school and ends up joining her there, and, obviously, Gwen doesn't get a new series of her own. They need to use her somewhere.
