Let's Talk About SAMURAI

[Qeilos]

Hi Kaio-Ken,

Have you tried using your crowd control abilities on the samurai whenever they use Chiten and have LB ready? Crowd control abilities are things like stun, sleep, bind, freeze, silence, charm, hysteria, and heavy. It isn't recommended to attack the samurai while they have a -50% damage mitigation on them, but if you still decide to go that route anyway (or if your team mates do) maybe you could try to chain your crowd control abilities one after the next for 5 seconds so that your team doesn't die and you can rank up. I think every job has enough of these crowd control abilities to last 5 seconds. So you could totally prevent this situation on your own.

The samurai cannot move or use LB while crowd controlled, and the crowd control is on the came cooldown as chiten so it should be ready again every time the Samurai is ready. I don't think you need to have a gigabrain strat to counter a samurai, it's quite simple actually.

They could do a bit to make that stuff readable. Clicking on someone to look for specific buffs like that isnt great when you are trying to watch your own health cc certain people burst others, LB buffs should have some kind of associated massive glow. You certainly know when I drop Baha or Birb I dont see why this shouldnt be universal. I cant really think of many games where stuff like that isnt made graphically apparent without having to target them (think Kayle Taric Zilean ults etc if you know LoL).

Edit: Can someone clarify something for me since I actually dont know how this works

"Reduces damage taken by 50% and delivers an attack with a potency of 2,000 every time you suffer damage.
Duration: 5s
Additional Effect: Afflicts target with Kuzushi"

Does that mean if i put Slipstream down on the ground, he can pop Chiten and just intentionally walk into it to get the debuff slapped on me?
