Very true, but I'll ask again: how does Surtur win here?
I can vividly see the Runner slicing Surtur and running....slicing Surtur and running...while never getting hit in the process.
Loki (who is much slower than the Runner) was successfully hitting and running against Surtur until he got tired (Loki did have his illusions distracting Surtur as well though); the Runner (having the Power Primordial to draw upon) surely has greater stamina than Loki, so should be able to hit and run against Surtur for a long, long, time...
Maybe even long enough to beat him...
