Please give blight a lunge on console

I've been playing blight for a while now on console and he's not very good but absolutely fun. He's easily my 2nd favourite killer to play just before deathslinger.

The thing that kills his viability and the reason he's in the bottom 5 on console is that he has no lunge at all coming out of his ability.

From where you're looking when you want to lunge you can only do about a 40-50 degree lunges. Making it impossible to hit survivors around strict 90 degree corners. Making it pretty much impossible to hit people who sit behind an object.

You can run at the wall at about a 15 degree angle, and then lunge to glide off of the wall in order to get a 90 degree, but this means using a part of your lunge to glide so the remaining part of your lunge that is actually around the corner is too short to hit them.

The most important thing though is that if survivors are running perpendicular to you they can easily juke your lunge by going the other way. This can also be said when a survivor is running in a straight line. It basically turns it into a 50/50 whether you will hit them or not, as you can predict the juke. The issue is though is that I shouldn't need to predict it, because the survivor is already outpositioned and I've already set up my rushes.

I just wanna have some more fun with this killer, seeing PC blights pull a 180 or a simple 90 degree lunge makes me want to do the same but I can't due to console limitations.

    Ive played blight since release and i defiantly think giving him a tiny bit of support on console would go a long way. Mainly i work around his weaknesses and tend to only go for rushes when they are out positioned or when im making a read.

    Just make blights lunge the same as spirits or nurses after using their powers.

    Give blight full agency and control over his lunge in lethal rush.
