They don't have many AOE Hard Controls. But hard controls are against Statesmans vision, especially AOE Holds (quite correctly to be honest. They make things very easy). The Soft controls of PA & Spectral Terror are fantastic though.

Good point. And some secondaries give you the option of picking up additional group holds (for example Choking Cloud and EM Pulse for /rad).

And since PAs aren't buffable the debuffs of Rad are great too.
Storm has similiar advantages (Thunderclap, Snow Storm, Freezing Rain) but theres a clash with Phantasm and Freezing Rain. He tends to knock em out of the rain with his AOE attack. Bold Phanty. Rad might suffer with this to a lesser extent too but at least they are anchor powers so it should fair better as the anchor should be knocked back too, keeping them grouped and debuffed.
