Singularity EMPS NEED TO BE NERFED TO 8 METERS AGAIN

During his rework to make him feel better to play… they also made his most annoying part STRONGER?

8m was buffed to 10m range.

I constantly have survivors at 5 gens running around their teammates with EMPs charging from way further away and being able to get off game losing Emps

    Singularity was amazing before, and he arguably is oppressive now. The only counter is people slowing themselves down to pre-pickup EMPs, which is fine since it takes a mere 3s to apply another tag on them. If EMP range gets nerfed, then they might as well revert the 95% boxes to autocomplete again.

    If a Singularity consistently is losing because people are hopping off gens, then the Singularity never had the skill to win in the first place. They are literally getting 2 people off gens for the price of one, and the re-tag is so easy that it is only a benefit.

    I mean if that were the case though, of it being beneficial having 2 people of gens, then people taking body blocks wouldn't be so strong to prevent a teammate going down early. It just doesn't work like that though, 2 people can still be on gens and one is helping and that is plenty of pressure. The issue now is it's to easy to swap who goes out to EMP the friend and who goes back on the gen because they barely have to get close.

    Singularity is honestly pretty broken right now in the right hands.

    His skill ceiling is high, sure, but EMPs are the only counter to an utterly oppressive power that takes all of a couple seconds to reapply.

    Correct, it only helps to bodyblock if the Killer would lose the original tunnel victim, or going into an Adrenaline play. If the Killer goes straight on after them, then it instead is a free injury for Killer, and a free win in due time. If a Killer isn't able to win with 2 people on gens at max the entire match (from 3-4), it is a skill issue and nothing more. Even being a basic M1 Killer and tagging only to bait out EMPs would still have Singularity win if the Killer piloting him has more than 20 hours in the game.
