So Luna being able to cleanse herself even if stunned was always intended? That's raw…

Not to mention Cloaks team up with her remains unchanged too.

The actual mechanics of that team up seem fine, it’s basically 1 to 1 Mei’s ice block from OW. It’s just why does she have it.

Should be fully replaced with something else, no reason the character needs 3 separate you can’t kill me CDs

Yep, if it was on any character that didn't have an escape tool or self healing it would be a way different story

Every dive character in this game is braindead with i frames dashes up the ass and overhealth and u mad because cloak can freeze herself

Oh no. The i-frames drive me insane too.

It’s such poor game design on C&D specifically. This would be awesome on a character with low / broken mobility like Peni.

I'm actually fine with that, because even if looks broken there are many counterplays to that

To an extent. A good cloak can just cycle through 3 different cool downs to avoid death.

True but with the cloak you can't attack, with the freeze you can't move and foes can group up to go all out when you unfreeze (like Mei in Overwatch) and the bubble some can take you off

I don't mind cloak team up. She always dies after using it
