New agent idea: Hoover Man

I think after the recent buffs to viper and astra, post plant plays are now too strong. If you were to combo a killjoy with an astra or a viper you can win a round without needing to risk an aim duel for playing post plant. But i think I have a solution... his name is "Hoover man"

I will now list his abilities:

- Suck (passive) . As the name suggests this passive ability will allow you to suck up mollys and smokes allowing you to defuse a bomb or remove a one way etc. Suck lasts 3 seconds and recharges every 35 seconds.

- Blow mode (200c) : This ability will allow "hoover man" to push enemies away from behind cover or a sightline. This has 2 charges and they do not regenerate and cost 100c per use. After being blown back ememies will be staggered for half a second, after which they much pull out their weapon again.

- Wild ride (100c) : This ability will allow "hoover man" to mount his hoover and ride along ontop of it. This ability would have 2 charges and cost 100c each. It would last for 8 seconds and while "hoover man" is riding his hoover he would be covered by a wall of dust that is kicked up by the hoover as it travels along.

- Megasuck/blow (7 ult points): This will allow "hoover man" to pick either blow or suck and do an amplified version of his regular suck and blow ability. The radius of both moves would be similar to that of a brimstone ultimate. The suck move would allow "hoover man" to suck any utility on site, including undiscovered cypher cages and hidden killjoy util such as alarm bots and nanoswarms. Blow would just be a bigger blow.

This is some concept art

I hope you find my idea interesting!
