1 I strongly disagree with removing area cloak and frankly I am surprised that it's Firepluk making this complaint. 1 I strongly disagree with removing area cloak and frankly I am surprised that it's Firepluk making this complaint.

3 Area cloak adds a whole other layer to the interactions in ZK and rewards in-depth knowledge of units and interactions. Countering cloak is easy enough - all you need is a flea screen for cloaked units to bump into, and typically that's that. Air sees them, arty sees them and they become dogmeat in a few seconds. Blastwing can perform this same function. 3 Area cloak adds a whole other layer to the interactions in ZK and rewards in-depth knowledge of units and interactions.

5 Frankly removing area cloak would advantage guys like me who like shieldballs, and my #1 enemy is cloak snitch. But that's part of the game to be played around, and removing area cloak and making cloak snitch not exist means that you will get huge blobs of stuff like Sling, spamming a hailstorm of fire from behing a riot and AA screen. Is that what we want?

5 Everytime a player gets ganked by some or other aspect of the game they throw a fit and want it "banned" which to me is ridiculous. Well, I've been DRP'd and nuked more times than I can count and I don't throw a fit asking for nuke to be banned. That's because it's another interesting aspect of a complex game and deserves to be there. 7 Everytime a player gets ganked by some or other aspect of the game they throw a fit and want it "banned" which to me is ridiculous.

7 I have not seen Shaman's anti-cloak unit but to me this sounds awesome and I think that is the proper response to cloak being hard to deal with. 9 I have not seen Shaman's anti-cloak unit but to me this sounds awesome and I think that is the proper response to cloak being hard to deal with.
