The editor who added this notice elaborates: Optimal strategy for this card needs confirmation. Is it similar to Btm Leak? Is it used similarly to Btm Leak? Is there distinctions that must be considered when using Btm Leak over Haunting?
At one more Gold than Bloontonium Leak, Haunting Night only partially removes the opponent's Bloontonium in exchange for your Hero gaining the stolen Bloontonium.
Players that leave their Bloontonium sitting around may have their Bloontonium stolen. This card can be used to slow down the opponent's Bloontonium gains, as well as benefit your Hero if they have a high Bloontonium requirement (e.g. Striker Jones).
Note that computer opponents tend to use up their Bloontonium on active abilities whenever possible.
