Surge needs some love: Entirely Counterable

I'll make this quick.


Counterplay to surge:

Hop in a locker if you are near the gens

Run away from the gens if you can

Surge gets no regression.

No when you compare this to Eruption, it is map wide range, works on M2 downs, gives 12 seconds of aura reading, does MORE regression, and works from locker grabs.

I never see surge get value in high MMR because of these reasons.

My suggested changes are:

Make Surge work in locker grabs

Increase the range of surge

Buff the regression to 12%

    I like how survivors can play around it with locker grabs, but at the very least, regression needs to be bumped up considering how easy and fast it is to hit the 8 regression limit with surge hitting multiple gens. That being said, this should be posted under normal feedback, as Surge isn't being tested in PTB. Unlikely the devs will pay any attention to a non PTB related feedback here.
