The cloak seems fine IMO. I'm strongly opposed to any buff, lest we go back to Scout 514.
It is difficult to spot a cloaked Scout from a distance, which is good because it's meant to be a tool to get from cover to cover. It's not a combat cloak.

Look at the 1.8 period, where you could instantly decloak, gank someone, and cloak right back up again. It didn't matter if you ran into any reds because you could instantly decloak and gank them. This was whilst we still had functional scans whilst we were cloaked too. At this time, it was performing as a combat cloak.
That's why it was nerfed though. It was performing as a combat cloak when that wasn't it's intended purpose. It was meant to be used as a tool to move across open ground with no cover, nothing more. To achieve this purpose, the cloak delay was added, as well as

Last time I used it, it was used in combat and fighting. So YES, IT IS A COMBAT CLOAK severely limiting a Scout's scan radius while cloaked. All the nerfs suggest that it's not meant to be used as a combat cloak.
Sure, you can try to use it as a combat cloak, but that's not what it's intended for, and you would probably just be hurting yourself by trying.
Cloaks: working as intended.

Forget the CPM nonsense, which was just a jibe, and for that, I apologise.

I'm a bit jaded from having to argue every little opinion I have, sorry mate. Only people I gotta convince are the Blue Tags. You shouldn't even run, what help can you provide if you tell us you don't even care about our opinion? Even the blue tags listen to us, they ask for our feedback. You just stomp on anyones feedback that differs from yours...... \o/

I think there isn't really an issue with the cloak. It can be very effective at moving unseen in the periphery of an opponent's vision, or from a distance. I think a lot of people are using it wrong. You shouldn't be cloaked when you're expecting to engage reds, simple as. I think too many people are running into hostile situations cloaked, then wondering why they died. To these people, I say you're not doing it right.
TL;DR: Cloak is fine, people are using it wrong.
