After reading the patch notes, I guess I won't play SAM anymore

Personally, I don't care about kaiten. That loss has no effect on me, and more consistent damage is better than RNG damage.

It felt awful having to pray for crits and direct crits to get decent runs.

So from my point of view, this is better.

Have you considered the fact that Midare will be doing significantly less damage now?

Old Midare: 660 + Kaiten = 990, but can crit and direct hit on top of the 990

New Midare 600, no kaiten, and because it auto crits, that means you cannot get additional crit+dh damage on top of the 600.
